Someone out there would give them a first round pick.

For Mudiay? No chance, dude has proven he isn't anything but an ineffective chucker with average passing skills, and little court vision.

Such a well run organization

A constant reminder that good management is better than big market

Buckle up everybody the next few days will be insane.

I wonder what Spike Lee thinks about the trade?

Man Golden St is really great. Honestly you will most likely not see a team this good for 25 years over a stretch of five, six years. With Cousins? He really adds an element that is amazing. We are talking about five olympians on the same team. Amazing

Until you got to open up that wallet a little more.

You don’t enjoy watching arguably the greatest team ever? Odd.

Eh. Defense is optional sometimes. You only have to be good enough somewhat. He’s good enough somewhat and with some motivation might actually play some defense.

Some don’t think it is fair. Or haven’t watched the NBA in a longtime and just think it’s a no defense, 1-on-1 league. But those people haven’t watched the Warriors. That offense is amazing and their defense will shut anyone down.

With Vic out for the season (Pacers lost again) only IU guy in action last night was OG as the Raptors lost to the Bucks.  OG only played 6 minutes and was 0-2 on 3's for his only shot attempts; 1reb.; 1 assist; team was -7 while he was on the court.

No, I don't enjoy watching a team with an All-Star starting 5 pummel everyone else every year. I loved watching GS back when they were building it the right way with Steph/Klay/Green/Barnes. Once KD came it ruined it for me. Then Cousins hopped on board. It's pathetic. Why should I be impressed?

But why shouldn’t Golden State have went after KD and let Barnes walk? They had the opportunity why not take it? And Boogie went to them because no one else wanted him.

I'm more upset with the players than the team. KD and Russ had the Warriors beat, choked away that 3-1 lead, and then he just bailed and joined them to get some easy rings. That's just wrong. No loyalty.

Eh, loyalty isn't really a thing. From either side, its funny when one side complains about the other not being loyal.

Because they are the best product possible at the highest level of competition. They are beyond entertaining to watch when they are going. Chances are we'll never see it to this extent again with all the whining and bitching about how unfair it is. It isn't

Not really a thing anymore. It used to be. Now there's still a handful left. Guys like Dirk, Dame, Russ, and Giannis. All of whom are my favorite non-Pacers.

Stacking your team with 5 All-Stars and destroying teams with zero All-Stars by 30 points isn't my kind of entertainment.

So I’m guessing you’re mad at Zion, Barrett and Reddish too?

Doesn't bother me at all. Nothing to do with loyalty, or quitting on a team/city. 

[Demo 23,652]

This Den-Hou game has some All Star Game caliber defense. Both teams getting literally whatever they want.
