Any deal getting rid of Butler is a good deal. But yes, the next deal should be Thibs getting kicked out of the state.

We waited to get value and this is what we end up with. Thats a terrible deal for us. Disgusted with this team and franchise.

Covington replaces Jimmy on defense and allows the offense to become more centered around Towns and Wiggs. And Covington adds to our 3-point shooting.

Saric was pretty promising last year. Not sure what's gone wrong this year.

And now we have another injured PG -- Bayless!

Too bad we could not get a 1st. The trade is not great from a value standpoint, but the fit is pretty good. And getting rid of Jimmy had finally come to a head. Go Wolves!

Wish we got a pick back. But we now have 2 quality rotation pieces with team control. No bad contact back also

Weird deal.

This was clearly about fit for kat and wiggins.

Covington is a super role guy that can play 2~4. Saric is a 4 guy to play next to kat which is something we don't have. And both guys are floor spacers which should allow us more space in the paint. We gain floor spacing, youth, and fulfill positional needs for now and the future.

Would have liked a first, but surprised we got Covington abd saric in the deal. I thought for sure they would push fultz on us.

I don't get this for the 6ers. They can't shoot. Now they add another high usage guy to fultz and simmons. And now they have no one with a 3 pt shot in that starting line up.

Espn says it adds 13 wins for sixers and we lose 10 extra games. Just a wonderful deal. Here comes the lottery for the next 5 to 7 years. Yay!
