Baltimore’s window to make that deal was two years ago. Controllable players bring a better return than rentals.

Re: 2018 NBA Offseason Thread

I can’t get over how Toronto is seen by most American athletes as some kind of Siberia despite it being better than almost any American city you could be traded to. Leonard’s lucky he wasn’t traded to Orlando or Oklahoma City. Like would they really rather live in Memphis? Milwaukee? Sacramento? I ...
