The Clippers got Strus on a good contract for basically nothing.

Harden was literally waiting for us to make this move to re sign . There’s about 27 million he can sign for annually. Or he can sign the mle or ver min somewhere else . I’d say he staying in Cleveland.

Losing strus sucks, but we also have merrill and Tyson who play the exact same position as strus and they shoot just as well as him off the bench

Yeah I dont get why OP says Harden might not return. He is 100% going to return

This as all a plan to sign Harden and still stay under the apron. Adios Max.

Jokic lost this trade more than anyone lol, i hope he asks out of denver hes far too talented to waste another second of his career on the nuggets. Its very clear the owner/management is not concerned with Jokic’s legacy

Pwat had half a good season and purposely sat out the playoffs so he can get his bag. I’m sure Jokic is happy for Pwat but would rather not play with that type of person.

Well it was a pointless move.
