Not sure why, but I have a feeling that it's going to be difficult to reach a consensus on this list.
Dipo is going to be motivated to cash in. Even after returning from injury he was still an efficient PnR playmaker and had flashes of all NBA defenses.

I understand the concern of him never being back to what he was, but if he costs you only Wright+Jackson and a pick then I don't know why people are scared. Even THJ. Wright+Jackson were non-factors in the playoffs, and were barely positive contributors during the regular season, we're not losing anything on that front.

THJ WAS a fantastic regular season contributor. He was integral to our historic offense. But come playoffs, he became erratic and his shooting percentages dropped like a rock (39.8%-> 35.2%) while taking even more attempts (7.2->9.0). Who's to say that THJ peaked last season, and he'll be back to his normal 35% self (5 seasons prior 34.3% from 3)?

I think we're starting to overrate THJ. And underrate Oladipo.
you mentioned him but Drummond would be my biggest no 
I hate the fit on the court and personalitywise  

and add Westbrick to the list

Maybe we can powder it all the way to 2024
Imagine if someone would actually come up with something to do instead of just saying no all the time. Let´s just wait for 2025. Free agent class looks great. No player under contract so far.

I'm ok with Danny Green for the right price
Anyone who can't play any type of defense. I don't care how great of a shooter/offensive player they may be!

I've said yes to players in plenty of posts. We all have.

Just this morning when my wife told our 4 year old that "no, you can't go out until you put clothes on". She said (something that seems to be a 4 year old go to move), in a whiny voice, "ok, well, I just won't do anything all day".

I was around when Dirk was drafted. There was NOT a concensus. Most folks were mad.

I know. I also remember that a lot of people wanted to trade him in the late 00s.
Who was the person who always tried to claim Dirk is done for years and was always proven wrong?...
My NO list (involving #18):

- Everyone above 32 years-old;
- Guys that can't defend;
- Guys that are not starters on their teams.

Perfect. I have a couple of trades you'd love then. 

How about Luka for John Wall? Or Luka+KP for Russell Westbrook?

Great addition to the "no" list!  Big Grin

Once upon a time, before I met my sweet wife, and since I was an old single dude, my friends would always say, "why not her?"

My answer was always, "I'm going to need a lot better reason than "why not".

"Just do something!" is almost never a good argument.
