Was told by a family member who is connected to someone who works close with the team that there were alot of tears. Monty was crying and the whole team was all there together to hug Mikal and Cam and to be there for them as they left. That's a good clue as to why shoot around was canceled.

Ugh. Gonna miss those boys.
I think today will be surreal for the entire team. Might even take a few days before the shock wears off. The sooner we get KD playing (healthy), the better.

I hope this doesn't affect Bridges’ games played streak. I think that's important to him.

The Nets play tonight, right? Not sure how that works in a trade transition.

Nets have played 2 less games than us so Mikal will still get to 82, even if he misses tonight.

I'm super conflicted today. I was a huge fan of the Twins. I think those are the guys you need to win a title, even though they accessorily pieces, because they fill in the holes and accept the hero support roles. Both guys have gotten better and will be missed, for everything they brought, including their personalities.

Yeah I was wondering if it counts as a missed game. But I guess it has to.

I don’t want to spoil this thread with speculation. Dammit ‘bone, why’d you go pee in the pool?

The NBA shouldn't have any games on deadline day.

Tweet about trade Mikal and Cam trade rumors to Houston. Harmless, but isn't the spirit of this thread.

Wasn't me, was it? At least I have zero recollection of what you're talking about. Houston?! I feel like I'm living in Bizarro world.

I'll miss going "PUPPY!!!" with my wife every time Bridges does something awesome (that's our dog Taylah on the left)

Cam had 2 of the best individual highlights of the last 2 years with the PJ Tucker yam and the buzzer beater against the Knicks.

This trade is going to be tough on Monty’s daughter.

Man this hurts, I'm not as 'excited' about the trade, and it i'm worried it won't feel as good if we do go on and win it as the media will be how durant bought us a title.... I love watching drafted or scrapheap talent grow here and these guys have been fantastic.. wish them the best!
