    That's certainly in line with the cap space plan, but yes, VERY weak.

    like I posted here
    This might clear the way to get the 15 (Detroit has the 14, I assume that's the pick they're talking about) ahead of Sacramento and nab Blair or whichever PG we like.

    I'd be fine with that. 31 is a great pick as there is usually little difference in talent available between that late 1st round and the 1st pick of the 2nd round. Plus, it's not a guaranteed contract - so no financial obligation. And if you pick a guy to stash in Europe and he blows up, you aren't bound by the rookie salary scale. If the guy ends up being worth it, you can outbid the European clubs for his services.

    Kings have a trade exception for $912,112, more than enough to cover Sergio's salary.

    31 is a good pick, we can grab the best euro and not be restricted by the 1st round rookie pay scale. pekovic went last year.

    22/31/33 should be able to make another move as well.

    31 and 22 to move up! Let's not allow Sergio's loss to go in vain!

    Wow... Sergio is now just worth moving up seven spots in the second round. haha. His value must really be low.

    Actually, I'd rather keep 31 and package 22 and 33 to move up.

    Not unless they were thinking of taking a back-up PG who can't shoot and doesn't playe defense.

    Re: Trade!: Sergio to Sacramento

    Hmm... I can see this happening.

    Portland gets salary cap relief and a slightly better pick.

    If this happens I wonder what MARIS is going to do/say...

    Maybe they're bringing in Sergio so Rubio can have a buddy to hang out with.
