    If it was Crabbe and, say, the 10th pick (once we traded 15 and 20) would that be better than Sabonis and Oladipo? I don't know..... I'm not really a fan of Dipo. I think he's going to be very overpaid. If I was Indy I would have prefered to get picks. They seem to draft well... or they did. Not sure how well KP/Buchanan will do. Buchanan has NOT had a great track record of drafting.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I'd rather have Oladipo than Crabbe. I'd rather have the 10th pick than Sabonis. Which deal is better depends on your evaluation of Sabonis. He had a truly awful rookie season, but he was reasonably well-regarded as a prospect. If you still like his talent and you, like me, prefer Oladipo to Crabbe, then you could prefer the Thunder package.

    And that assumes Olshey offered both picks. If he offered only one (especially if it was the 20), then it tilts more towards the Thunder package.

    Had been thinking the same. We take on more per year for 2, but shed the 3rd year.

    So veterans that they have that they're probably looking to move:

    Tyson Chandler
    Jared Dudley
    Leandro Barbosa
    Eric Bledsoe
    Brandon Knight

    Chandler and Dudley have two years left on their deals.

    I wish. I doubt they'd even do the deal as is. But, they get younger at all 3 spots. Crabbe a great shooter to play alongside Booker. Leonard...well, I don't need to sell him. He makes less than Chandler, and maybe a change of scenery does him well.
