Both teams did well in the trade.
The Nets got 3 valuable players: 2 that have 1st round pick(s) value and 1 (Crowder) has 2nd round pick(s) value plus 4 unprotected 1sts and a pick swap. Teams are tripling over themselves to offer the Raptors assets for Anunoby; Bridges and Cam Johnson are on that level. Will Marks use them well? Is the question.
The Suns went all in. I thought the Paul+Crowder+1sts for Kyrie was the better package if Brooklyn wanted to win now and now we’ll get to see how good it can be with Booker and Ayton surrounding them. Health/durability will be the main issue for how far this team goes.
This will be one of the most interesting playoffs ever. However the seeding shakes out, every team that qualifies will have a decent shot at the Finals and could be running on fumes once they make it to the Finals.
