we're WHAT
The NBA trade market is in a confusing place. As the trade deadline approaches I've seen many trade ideas and tried to come up with some of my own, but especially after the Trae Young trade, I have no idea what any player's trade value looks like. Mikal Bridges went for 5 first-round picks. Desmond Bane went for 4. Trae Young went for 0? What does that mean for someone like Ja Morant? What about Lauri Markkanen? Giannis? The second apron has also complicated things. I have no idea what a team like the Cavs should do or can do while over the second apron. Freeing up salary was part of the reason for the Trae Young trade as well. Not to mention that NBA GMs make no sense half the time, if any of the recent higher profile trades were posted online the comments would call them insane and say they'd never happen. Not to mention the Luka trade lmao
What are your thoughts? What kind of trade value do players have? Do NBA GMs know what they're doing? Who should trade what for who? I'm curious what lemmy world NBA thinks.

Honestly I was just thinking this morning I look so much like my mom.
Curious how you decided what goes where, I'd hardly consider SQL a "Toy Lang" as opposed to a "System Lang"
The PowerMac G4 Cube. Absolutely gorgeous design, arguably the best looking computer ever. Horribly impractical even for the time and especially nowadays.
“I hate a 9-to-5 schedule,” Biggs said. “I get home and I don’t want to do anything else."
Ok, relatable... continue.
"Like, women aren’t built for this."
Oh. Ok then.
I wish I understood the mind of a conservative. Like being frustrated with how physically and mentally draining a 9-5 job is, and immediately jumping to misogyny is just... wow. Not to mention all of the hypocritical sexist stuff she said in the rest of the article. Honestly if she wasn't causing others harm with her platform and policy I'd feel bad for her; that's gotta be some harsh self loathing and internalized misogyny to think that way all the time.
no way 
what is this from?
I think you need to go to a therapist
I know this is reposted to lemmy so people are understandably going to connect those dots but OOP was talking about cohost, a site very similar to tumblr. Many people (including myself) jumped ship from tumblr to cohost following a series transmisogynistic bans and censorship from tumblr's staff. Cohost was run by 4 people, didn't run ads and was funded entirely by the community. It was honestly the best social media platform I've ever used. Unfortunately it shut down in October 2024 due to lack of funding and developer burnout. In retrospect, OOP was right. The people I followed on cohost moved to discord servers or their own blogs, and while I didn't engage much with my "community" on cohost while it was around, I lost a lot of what I used to see on there. I think lemmy and federated social media is more resistant to that because it's spread across so many instances, but I think OOP has a point, smaller social networks like this and cohost aren't stable. While I think tumblr and twitter are pretty horrible for many reasons and I don't wish to go back, I can't really blame OOP for their sentiments. Maybe one day we can have the best of both worlds.
