Ishbia screwed things up, but in all fairness if he made no moves we would only be in a little better position - basically we would still have an inferior team but have our first rounders - but those are far from a sure thing.

If he made no moves, true. But players are changing teams all the time, and the Suns had liquid assets to work with. Resisting the Durant trade would have left the Suns in a strong position for other trades in (what was then) the near future.

There is no trade market for DeRozen or LaVine. Chicago learned that firsthand. Sacramento was the only sucker out there and they gave up next to nothing for LaVine.
Gave Chicago back their 1st. The one Chicago gave them to take DeRozen. Neither is really impressive.

Please make this one be true. One of the hot rumors on Warriors World is that the Warriors will pursue Steven Adams in FA. as a short term fix would be great. 32 in July, history of injuries but just what they need, physical banger, rim protector, great offensive rebounder, sets the best screen in the entire NBA.

Stephon Castle (Spurs), Zaccharie Risacher (Hawks), Jaylen Wells (Grizzlies), Zach Edey (Grizzlies), and Alex Sarr (Wizards) make the all Rookie First Team.

Castle was a unanimous selection and Risacher was one ballot shy of being unanimous.

Kel'el Ware (Heat), Matas Buzelis (Bulls), Yves Missi (Pelicans), Donovan Clingan (Blazers), and Bub Carrington (Wizards) made the second team.
