@British_Buzz I kind of looked at it the other way. As in even after “welcoming back” Mark, they were still trying to get the trade completed and ship him out.

@hornetshoops_ Not a case of “right vs wrong” according to Marks. Just that the Lakers Dr’s may see things that the Hornets didn’t. Just unlucky it occurred at the deadline and it couldn’t be worked through

@YoniPollak I can only imagine how you would’ve reacted if the Rockets traded an aging Eric Gordon for anything less than two first round picks.

@British_Buzz It also tells me that they essentially made the decision that Mark is gone, whichever way this shakes out. You can’t “welcome him back” but also being fighting the league office to allow his trade to go through.

@iohandles Imagine being this big of a clown.

@iohandles Please

@YoniPollak At least you’ll get one of the more under appreciated players in the league

@British_Buzz @ShamsCharania Is the picks the suns or rerouted from somewhere?

@1ukestewart @hornetshoops_ Who says Luka is automatically re-signing there?

@British_Buzz I’m sure that this FO still has a ton of confidence in Tidjane. I wonder one they could go back in time tho knowing they do this trade if they take Clingan

@mxwzy I think if they traded Mark first they prob woulda held onto Nick as opposed to ship him for 2 2rps. But trading Nick wasn’t going to stop them from making this deal.

@iohandles Any you’ll crap on any move this front office makes. Could trade a Seth Curry for prime Larry Bird and you’d laugh at them.

@British_Buzz I’m still processing but pretty shocked. I basically expect this regime to turn over everyone besides Miller (including Melo) and build this thing their way. It’s a nice return for a very questionable player, I’m just shocked. Totally viewed him as a foundational piece.

@YoniPollak Pretty confusing. Need to digest.

@hornetshoops_ @iohandles having a mental breakdown watching this.

@iohandles You’re such a moron

@malquiza8 Totally agree. Happy to continue to be a facilitator for larger trades and pick up assets for now.

@hornetshoops_ Don’t be afraid to tag the 🤡 @iohandles
