Hilarious... I'd take Martin Jr over Brooks in a vacuum, Houston is spending 80 million on Brooks and giving Martin away to make room. That is a great trade for the Clippers, Martin is a solid player.

Second round picks do have value if used correctly, beyond drafting a player.

Seriously, who did some of these teams think they were bidding against?

In a year where hardly anyone had cap space you've got Portland giving Grant a contract no one else would have pondered for a moment. Coby White was the 8th man on a BAD Bulls team and he was not good in the role... 40 million, and he was restricted! They were worried someone would offer him more?

Draymond's contract is wild too. With their luxury tax bill, it is going to cost them hundreds of millions. I get that you want to reward a guy who was a key cog in 4 titles but... jeeeez. His decline has been precipitous already, in another year or 2 he might be unplayable.

And Kyrie... absolutely no one was going to offer Kyrie that kind of money or years. He's insane, he's a cancer and the only teams who might have been willing to roll the dice on him had no cap space to do so. They apparently believed that him signing elsewhere for the minimum wasn't a bluff... either that or they decided it was better to overpay him and keep him "happy" than to make him settle for less than he wants. But it won't matter... he's a cancer, he will ruin that situation at the first bump in the road.

I still gotta give the title to Portland and that Grant contract. He chucks shots, plays no D, doesn't rebound, can't pass. A near max deal for a dude with zero accolades and hasn't impacted the winning percentage anywhere he has been in the NBA. They are desperate to build a contender around Lillard and they are still making the same mistakes, putting wildly overpaid, mediocre players around him. Dudes they won't be able to give away in a trade.
If CP3 thinks the Suns did him wrong, wait until he finds out what GS does with him. He wont be on their team after the trade deadline... book it
