It's still an asset for free and they're Indiana. Why wouldn't they? My point was nobody wanted him enough to give up something valuable for him.

u know what?

I think some of you are too desperate to frame this as a win. The truth is we didn't get any players we can count on in this trade. We got players who are unreliable due to injury or character. The deal was made in the wrong timing under bad circumstances. It's okay, we got a bad roster right...

Ayton would probably get here for Nurkic and Little anyways. At least Markkanen was a good starter, we got nothing equivalent to that ...And I don't like the recent hype around Ayton here lately. Like you guys haven't followed the Suns at all these past 2 years. Who the fuck even wanted him?

It doesn't matter what he was. We're talking about current value. At any rate, he was at least a nice starter for the Cavs. If you consider Ayton as part of the Nurkic dump deal then what equivalent piece did we get here? Nothing.

Absolutely not. Markkanen played at high level this year (all-star?) and showed he can be trusted under pressure. Sexton can still be a nice 6th man Ayton and timelord? - unreliable. Celts and Suns fans wanted both off their respective teams. Picks: The gsw pick will be trash and i don't...

Cronin is terrible. I genuinely believe this franchise will be in the gutter with him at the helm.

Nah I've always been a 0 and 1 guy. If it's not a real, championship caliber guy or a high potential pick then it's like a zero for me. Somewhere in my mind I'm convinced those swaps would be shit. Maybe it's blazers fan bias, idk. Guys like Ayton always seem to get squashed into tiny assets...

Me too. Wanted him gone for years now.

"Very little logic" eh? Please point me to the immediate tangible assets we got in this trade. Players or picks we can actually appreciate these next 4-5 seasons. What is the actual distance between having Ayton, Holiday, pick swaps with a similar small franchise and nothing? To me it's...

Really with the numbers now? Just tell me you've watched him these 2 past playoffs and liked what you've seen. Tell me you thought "this is a championship caliber player". In 2 years we'll ship him for some bench player in Detroit or Atlanta

And what did we see from him since? Exactly. Didn't want this dude on my team.

Sorry, but i gotta vent My head hurts and i feel sick. My favorite player ever was traded for TRASH. yea i said it. -Ayton is not a legitimate player for a playoffs team. -Jrue is old and expiring=very little value. -One draft pick my unborn son will get to watch and 2 swaps?! Helloooo...

Oh Buzzkill

Dude would have been a nightmare for the rest of the league. An alien. Can't forget about Petrovic as well. That would be like giving up on prime Beal today.
