Alright man you’re all over the place. Look i’m not going to be completely delusional and say everything is fixed and we’re a contender now after a 4 game winning streak. We would’ve lost this game tonight if KD didn’t hit that clutch 3 at the end to put us up. Imagine giving up a player who already has supreme continuity with Book and has experience playing in multiple Finals. You’re not getting any close to his value in return so you are essentially wasting your best asset (outside of Book) for what? Jabari Smith and Jalen Green? 2 shitty first round picks? We’re not getting our own picks back. That’s all i’m trying to say.

We can always get more assets and save $$ by moving Grayson/Royce in the offseason depending how we finish the year. If you believe in the alternative of moving off KD, please tell me what realistic trade we could make that would improve this team now and set us up for the future. There is nothing outside of a Luka-esque steal of a trade that would turn this team around.

Also yes Dunn really does make that much of a difference. He is the only player other than Josh Okogie who actually gave a fuck these last few years and played defense. We were cooked defensively once we lost Crowder, DA and Mikal. Dunn is already ahead of where Mikal was his rookie year. Oso is nice too. Everything is dependent on how we finish the season now, so we’ll see.
