Don't overthink this one, Cool. Remember, we're talking about Rosas. Logic and common sense don't seem to apply in I his world.

If this isn't a precursor to another deal then I have lost all faith in this front office.

I'm still hoping it isn't a precursor to a bigger deal. Rosas is a bad deal-maker. So the bigger the deal, the bigger the negative impact on the team. I consider this deal for Prince idiotic. But it's not going to have a significant impact on the franchise because it's a relatively minor deal. I suspect there were better deals for Ricky. One of those better deals must have been Larry Nance. I can't believe the Cavs weren't willing to part with Nance for the same package we just gave them to get Prince. Nevertheless, another missed opportunity isn't as bad as a bad big deal.

He's really dangerous tonight. Probably feels some pressure to take a big swing with the new ownership interest coming in. Is there anyplace you can buy fan insurance for what we are about to witness?

Lol. Fan insurance. Love it, Cool!

If there's a bigger deal in the offing, then what about the following:

Wolves get Simmons

Sixers get Beal and Wolves 2023 2nd round pick

Wizards get the following:
DLO
McDaniels
J. Culver
Thybulle
Sixers 2021 1st round pick (#26)
Wolves 2023 1st round pick (unprotected)
Sixers 2023 1st round pick (lottery protected)

Rosas gets this guy he wants. Sixers get the guy they need. Wizards get lots of additional pieces to jump start their rebuild. McDaniels and the future picks would be the key pieces for the Wizards.

I keep reading this thread and think we got Tayshaun Prince. I was like isn't he like 40 lol. Wrong prince.

5 years from now, I like Mobley to be the best player out of this draft.

Someone is getting Suggs for a steal.
