Hawks really got bailed out by the Wiz.

I like that trade for both teams. ATL clears a ton of cap space, and WAS gets to bring in an exciting but flawed floor general with low pressure. I think the Wiz will be fun to watch. And ATL can work the FA market this summer. Win win.

Fred would usually say “I’m coming, ELIZABETH!”
Not just “I’m cumming uuughhh” like these dudes were

Trae Young has the Washington Wizards as his top preferred trade destination, sources tell ESPN.
First and last time I'll ever hear
that !

I like it for the Wiz. Their young core could really benefit from someone who can create as much offense as Young can for them and they basically got him for free. That's a franchise that has been starved for star-level talent.

Beal and Arenas were the last two I remember off the top of my head.

Eric Collins might be my second favorite announcer after Al.

Stix is not a 4. I like him and root for him but he’s Oso with a 3 point shot (minus the dribbling and passing).
So ... Not Oso?!?
in Ott we trust

Yeah LOL that kind of sounds like the exact opposite of Oso.

Not Oso. But still not a 4. He can’t really move his feet on defense.

I like Collins, but I could see myself getting tired of him if I listened to him every game.
