I think the biggest upside of the Drummond acquisition is that it, in my opinion, will prove to have significantly raised Tristan's value around the league. None of these fucking GMs were willing to give up anything to acquire TT before the deadline and it seems like everyone was expecting for the Cavs to just buy him out. Everybody tried to call his bluff, but it seems like Koby said, "fuck that, hold my beer." The Drummond trade forced TT into his best role, which has always been energy big off the bench. Now, he's entering games and just destroying, it's great to see and we have his bird rights. So teams are still going to have to come off a 1st rd pick if they want to acquire him, assuming he stays healthy and keeps balling, the most likely scenario is that he leaves via sign and trade. This is excellent asset management. Props, Koby Altman.
Now if we can raise Drummond's value and then flip next trade deadline, then we're doing some real shit. Jury is still out but maybe Koby is not that bad or maybe I'm reaching here, I'm not quite sure.
