  2. No point in living in the past! It’s over, we got better, made the WCF, and now we look ahead and figure out what to do the rest of the season with a run and in the offseason!

    Some may not want to admit but I believe this closed the window for Lebron and AD. They went away from what got us a ring to now. We gave away everything that made us a champion. Also Lebron and AD are to blame too, someone smart didn’t think that a guy who can’t shoot, who needs the ball a lot and is not efficient is not going to work with Lebron.

    That trade should’ve resulted in firing every single individual who was on board.

    It’s still hurting us because we overpaid a rookie “brick whisperer” coach and ownership refuses to cut our losses

    Bucks fired their coach after starting 30-13 or something. Our organization is leaving our players out to dry

    I can’t believe LeBron and AD signed off on this trade and pushed for it.

  7. The fact that Rob Pelinka agreed to this make me even more mad.

    One of the darkest days of my life as a Laker fan

    Letting AC walk is another head scratcher. Same with trading zubac for muscala.

  10. While I agree it wasn’t a good trade, it wouldn’t have mattered anyway with AD and Lebron being injured that season. AD missed half the season and LeBron missed almost 30 games. Kuz and KCP aren’t covering up for that.

    But it would have probably been more fun to watch than Russ. It just wouldn’t have mattered much, so no need to harp on it really….at this point

  11. If we are going to revisit the trade we done years ago, we traded the 2020 pick (jaden mcdaniels) and Green for Dennis Schroder and then let him go for nothing.

  12. And we’ve been looking for a KCP role player ever since. What did the #22 end up being I wonder?

    This sub gets so in its feelings after every loss like god damn y’all need lives

    Bron and AD left Westbrook wide open in the 2020 playoffs and somehow decided it was a good idea to trade for him a year later

    The winner ultimately was Rob Pelinka. That move earned him another 4-year extension from Jeanie. F.O. really wanted a star badly.

    If it makes yall feel literally even a little bit better, the only player still on the team that actually was from that deal, is Kuzma. We didn’t get SHIT for kcp or for Harrell when we flipped them, and the 22nd pick we ended up trading for Aaron holiday and the 31st pick (he’s garbage).

    So all together, we got absolutely fuck all from the deal in the end. Kuzma is obviously still able to fetch us something, but we really didn’t actually do shit with any of the assets y’all gave us

    I remember being excited thinking Westbrick was a walking triple double. Ended up being the highest paid flop on that roster.

  18. Pretend_Safety

    An absolute felony of a trade.

    And how on-brand for the Wizards that they did zero with this heist.

  19. Chipdouglas0007

    Kcp went from manna from heaven to Westbrook filler…

  20. JustaCasualThrowawy

    The beginning of the end of the LeBron/Anthony Davis chip window together.

  21. _Red_Mist_

    This is why players can’t be GMs. Lebron and AD pushed this trash.

  22. vampirepussy

    Is this a worse trade than KD to the Suns ?

  23. ElephantWang420

    Yeah but who’s laughing now? Wizards invested in Poole 💩
