Serge had 3 days of rest but it looked like he was playing a B2B. JV will help I hope.. but if we're making a trade, I wouldn't really shed a tear if he was going the other way.

But it became evidently clear that they weren't good enough to compete in october. So what did AA do? he traded for Price, Tulowitzki, Hawkins, Revere....i'm sure i'm missing a couple more. But he completely overhauled the team. This is what needs to happen here.
Kawhi is Donaldson.
Kemba is Donaldson.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

Those recent teams form the latest points in a long-running pattern. Going back 30 years, less than half of the league’s finalists (26 of 60) have added even one player on an in-season trade at any point, at the deadline or earlier. And because most of those teams added players who either never appeared for them (like Sanchez) or rarely did so (like Daye), that proportion falls even further when limiting the results to only trade targets who actually, tangibly aided their new teams’ playoff runs.
Just 15 percent of finalists in the past 30 years (nine of 60) have added a player on an in-season trade who played in at least 20 minutes per playoff game. Here’s the entire list of those teams and their acquisitions:
2015 Cavaliers: Timofey Mozgov, Iman Shumpert, J.R. Smith
2009 Magic: Rafer Alston
2008 Lakers: Pau Gasol
2005 Spurs: Nazr Mohammed
2004 Pistons: Rasheed Wallace
2001 76ers: Dikembe Mutombo
1995 Rockets: Clyde Drexler
1994 Knicks: Derek Harper
1989 Pistons: Mark Aguirre
Only four of those nine teams won their championship series, the most recent being the 2005 Spurs, who won their title so long ago that James hadn’t even reached the playoffs yet. In other words, only four times in the past 30 years has the eventual champion added an impact player via midseason trade. It seems that even requiring a roster upgrade is, itself, disqualifying for potential title winners, and that (with few exceptions) a champion needs its rotation fully accounted for before a season begins.Only one thing matters: We The Champs.
