In the end...I think its a good trade for both teams. Ultimately it probabaly came down to 2 teams offering a pick for Kieff with protection and the Wiz going the lowest on the protection.

That is what I am thinking too.

I almost want to say it is a steal for the Wizards. Kieff is going to be really happy to be out of Phx and he gets to play with Gortat. Watch him kick his numbers up to 18/8 for the rest of the season.

He will end up showing how little effort he was giving for us.

Yeah, not really digging this trade. However, there are some intriguing guys on DX's mock in the 10-13 range including Skal, Rabb, Hield, Stone & Trimble.

He tanked his value, not sure what you expected in return.

I expected a pick around that range but also a young player to help us going forward.

Why would a team give that up though? Realistically, 1 decent 1st was our best bet.

No shit. Be unhappy that we didn't turn Mirza into value. Or PJ. Don't be pissed that we got a decent 1st for Keef.

If that deal was out there, we would have made it.

Len hopefully. Although, I've always thought the ex-Kardashian was always a bit better than given credit for.

I'm also unhappy about that stuff. Lol. For me it depends on when we get the pick and who we select with it. If we somehow get Rabb I would change my mind pretty quickly.

He was once a decent rebounder, right? Like 10 a game at one point?

It is more that we are unhappy that Kieff tanked his value so effectively. I'm pretty sure most of us wanted him gone. He had to go but that doesn't mean the Wizards didn't get a steal.

But they didn't. They paid what he was worth. We fucked ourselves over because we invested in him.
