    This trade is a humbling reminder of how few players after the mid first round turn out to be worth jack squat.

    If Belinelli can get the 22nd then Plumlee or Aminu can get us into the lottery...

    (Not saying I'd do it...)

    No wonder Boston and the Wolves are having trouble trading the 3/5th pick because if the 22nd pick gets you Marco then even early lottery picks dont' hold enough sway to get an allstar caliber player.

    Man.... Woj is one nerdy dude. I hadn ever seen/heard him. He was much more impressive when he was just known as Woj for his Woj bombs.

    I'd do that, but i'm super high on Avery Bradly.
    Edit- didn't realize you had a tweet in your post. It does't show up anywhere but where i'm quoting you. Wierd.

    Is Boston really planning on keeping Kris Dunn? How many 6'4" and under guys can you have on one roster?

    If it was offered, would you move Chief to the Kings for the No. 8 pick?

    Makes no sense. Two guards for one guard but only one will play consistently and we would not extend Crabbe. Crabb + McCollum is better.

    Dunn for Okafor/Noel makes too much sense to not happen.

    I can get philly offering Noel for the 3 pick if they don't want to to pay him but Okafor would be the third best pick in this draft so trading him would only happen if philly loved someone.

    Yeah I mean Noel rather than Okafor but if they prefer Noel's defence to Okafor's offense then maybe it'd still make sense. Bottom line is Dunn/Hield would add a lot to that team that they miss.

    Dunn, Simmons, Okafor and Embiid is a very promising young core and you can easily play 3 or even all 4 at the same time if Okafor can learn PF role.
