I think the trade is crap but it is what it is. Top 20 protected is extreme right when they are about to suck damn…..

Cleared a ton of cap, got draft picks and got a young player for a broken bodied big man that only played in 29 games for them. I get what you're saying but nobody can convince me this was a bad deal for the Mavs.

I think it was especially when you factor in its essentially for Luka.

Plus the Luka trade was a failure and you sort of have to just get what you can for AD at this point.

I think it's the best deal available honestly. At least I hope it was. It might've been the best deal available. I don't think any of the players we got back are worth anything. But I'm intrigued by Bagley. I've been impressed with him these last two years. Not saying hes' living up to his potential but he's become a solid rotational player. I do wonder what Kidd can get out of him.

Just getting two 1st for AD is amazing. And a 33m expiring Middleton contract to boot. Mavs will be able to facilitate alot of moves this offseason and stack assets

It also opens up possibilities over the next 24 hours of the deadline that they didn't have before. Lot's of speculation that they aren't done yet.

They just did what good front offices do. They took advantage of a bad front office. This deal makes as sence for the Wizard as the Trey Young trade did. None. They handed over two first round picks, three 2nds to take on one of the worst contracts in the NBA
 
I just saw that Paul does not need to report to Raptors and Raptors could still trade Paul tomorrow before the deadline

I mean they traded nothing to get AD though. Unlike us. I'd trade for AD every ay out of the week. He's a great player. I wouldn't trade anything substantial for him though. Certainly not Luka.
