I mean, look at the Nets.
They fell in the draft for the second straight year, you know, down to seven or eight last year and then down to six this year when they had a high odd of top three.
So, you know, I think that they are kind of unfairly getting, you know, this heat for losing the pick.
But I will say just in a loaded draft,
It's a tough year to do the deal.
And to your point, I think for this year, it's a tough year for an overpay the way it happened.
But GMs, you know, there's a ton of GMs, obviously, who were hedging their bets on luck to move up in the lottery and get a high pick all year.
So I don't think he should be guilty of that.
I think that you just picked the wrong year to do it.
And to your point, you've never seen an apology like that.
Most basketball executives are not on social media publicly to begin with.
They might have a burner.
But to see that, that is like a one-in-a-million type of tweet.
Yeah, I'm very curious to see where this goes.
Obviously, ESPN reported yesterday that Bucs are now taking offers for him.
I wonder where he goes on two fronts to your point.
Yes, they should have traded him probably right after Damian Lillard tore his Achilles in the playoffs.
I would have traded him last summer if you could have, or to your point the year before, before acquiring Damian Lillard and giving him all that money, given he's going to be on their books.
That's the closest thing to the Bobby Bonilla deal probably.
You'll see in the NBA of that wave and stretch.
