    Hello darkness, my old friend
    "All our picks" aren't really as valuable as an in-his-prime borderline superstar. Unless the fourth pick we get is well inside the top-ten, I guess, but I don't see how we get a pick like that (beyond wherever Portland's might land). If Portland acquires another pick in the 20s, I don't think it'll add up to all that much, honestly. Good assets for greasing a bigger trade but not good assets for headlining a big trade.

    The 'silence' before the Woj-cast. I'll try to blog it for those who can't listen in.

    I think he just saw a question, "Is Damian Lillard a garbage can?"

    I think it would hinge on where Bogut goes. Unless they also get Bogut, BOS would still be very weak up front and on the glass.

    If Bogut goes to CLE, they would still be the favorite in the East and have a real shot at upsetting GSW again.

    Let's just say I don't think it even takes 4 picks. Time will tell so let's just see. Teams aren't getting a crazy amount of picks for players anymore.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    My point is that I don't think Chicago even wants a "crazy amount" of low-value picks. One pick in the top-five would be far better than even seven picks in the mid-20s, in my opinion. You're acting like all first-rounders are the same and "4" is huge value.

    Our pick is going to be top 8 imo. If you had to press me I would say 7th. And I wasn't acting anything but if I came off the way to you then sorry as it is apparently hard to "read" someone on a message board.

    Where is @BonesJones and @Cippy91? We should sacrifice a virgin before the trade deadline is up.
