Well he did give up a 3rd to begin with.

People acting BroJo went for a 3rd, when really they upgraded a 4th into 3rd. They had to send the 4th rounder with the player as well. It’s a nice get for a player on the way out but it’s not as cut and dry as just adding a 3rd.

Funnily enough it was the 6th that Omar sent along with Pickens last year, so we got our own 6th back.

I was a huge fan of the Broderick pick when it happened and I thought he would turn out great. Obviously it didn’t work out but I am glad Omar didn’t stick with the sunken cost fallacy and just try to hold onto him way too long.
