Happy Friday everyone! Hope you all had a good week but lets be honest, thank God the weekend is here!
It was a bit of a wild week in the NBA despite the season officially ending a few days ago. With the season now over the fun stuff begins and what we mean by that is trades and free agency rumors all summer long!
Lets dive right into the most recent deal which some what broke the internet but more so from a confused stand point. Long time NBA Vet Chris Paul was traded to the Golden State Warriors. Now this threw everyone for a loop especially given Paul’s age and recent injury history. Its what the Warriors gave up that threw everyone for a loop. The trade was Chris Paul for 2 first round picks and Jordan Poole…how that makes sense we don’t know but what do you think will come of it?
A trade that came on late Wednesday evening is another shocker which was Kristaps Porzingis being sent over to Boston in a three team deal. Washington receives Tyus Jones, Danilo Gallinari, Mike Muscala and the number 35 overall pick. While Memphis obtains veteran guard Marcus Smart. The surprise to all of this is Boston also received 2 first round picks on top of KP! Tell us how this makes sense!
Kris Middleton opts out of his 40 million dollar player option with the Milwaukee Bucks Is he out for another payday or is he looking to get a new team friendly deal to keep some pending free agents? With his injury history it would behoove him to opt out and get a new deal that is going to help the front office retain some key role players for the Bucks but you never know now a days.
Lastly the NBA draft took place last night! What players did your respective teams end up with? Are you guys at all surprised of the order of the first few picks?
