TRADE ANNOUNCEMENT!

Skywalker has traded Chris Boucher to DanH for his 2021 Draft Pick and Jarrett Culver.

Lol Dan going full "Just go with Masai".

[koncept]

a pick AND Culver. wa wa wee wa. somebody really went for it

[koncept]

also owning Harden on another team has been stressful so far this season. I wonder what his season stat prediction will be now on Brooklyn.

[DanH]

I dunno. I like Boucher, he's weird and plays into my build, and helps me in blocks where I could use some help. I kind of fell out of love with Culver and have little faith in Minny developing guys, kind of hated drafting him even though I loved him before the NBA draft just because he landed there. Hoping my draft pick will once again be outside the top 10.

Skywalker could have a heck of a return there though and possibly for a fringe player if Boucher really drops off, and Culver makes a leap. Definitely should have a chance to add a talent in that 2021 draft - I'll need to go mining post-lotto in the auction. I don't expect Boucher to maintain his points or threes pace, but even decent production there along with his block rates will help.

I thought it was a good trade. Boucher is a stud. MIP.

Can't believe the Nets traded Jarrett Allen the day after I parted ways with DJ... just another reason for me to hate them even more.

As soon as I read the trade I put in my claim and then chuckled about how much that must have stung. That's some rough timing but the silver lining is you appear to have landed a pretty good looking prospect. My chump change $3 FAAB stood no chance at the table in landing Diallo or DJ but that said...

The Creeds say goodbye to Marc Gasol. COVID killed the value of that trade to acquire him and I was a little too optimistic about his impact on the Lakers. He's had a great career though and I'm sure someone in the league will snatch him up.

Most importantly, I read this little headline this morning:

Rookie Isaiah Stewart drawing parallels to revered names in Pistons history: Rodman, Wallace

https://www.nba.com/pistons/features...rodman-wallace

That's great timing because the Creeds have just signed Stewart to a two year deal. He looks like a top 100 stud fantasy player in the making and I look forward to the second half of the season when the Pistons are done and his minutes ramp up.

Isaiah Stewart: *amasses a career high of 8 boards in his first game, yet to duplicate it since*

Apollo Hype Train: "This guy is better than 2 of the best rebounders of all time"

Nobody can spin it like the Creeds!

Isaiah knew when he signed with the Creeds he should expect to be put under the microscope and how did he respond? 9 points, 7 boards, an assist and a block in only 18 minutes while shooting 57% from the field. Just wait until after the all-star break when they remove the training wheels and he really gets rolling. This kid is a fantasy killing machine in the making.

How about some real hype?! CJ McCollum is averaging 5 treys per game on the season. Dude is straight ballin this year.

I’d prefer Lonnie Walker. Thanks for dropping him btw

Boucher making me feel good about that trade right out the gate.
