Initial reaction to the KD trade from a restaurant booth

Great analysis. I think the team will pick up a SG with good 3 point percentages in free agency. I hope we'll be in on Malik Beasley, but I trust our team to find the guy. We have the best GM in basketball. LET'S GO!

Cons: KD is 37 and could get hurt. Green can still become a star, he’s only 23. Pros: KD is a superstar and fills the scoring you lacked. Gives Reed & Cam an opportunity to make the rotation. You now shift the team to Amen.

💯 with everything you stated. Casual that don’t watch basketball tend to associate scorers with no defense. Like Barkley/Harden etc… KD has always been a good defender. Now at his age, needs help. Rockets didn’t lose nothing with this trade unless you are a Green believer.

Good breakdown. I think it's a clear win. Gave up quite a bit less than we'd feared. And I like this cost-benefit more than the rumored Giannis packages

Why does this restaurant look they are about to serve you biscuits and gravy that are next level?

Because … they do!

Also team keeps Reed Sheppard, Tari and Whitmore. There was a reason why trading Green was a no brainer. Even when Durant leaves you still have players on Roster to shift into lineup. Amen Thompson made Green expendable. Period.

I can picture you spitting out your meal to record this video and I am here for it

now let's get Giannis -too-. We still have all the ammo to make it happen!
