I forgot how, but I believe it had something to do with Jim Paxson being a moron? Trading them for bust, etc. I can't believe I forgot how we lost them, but I believe we do have picks next year. hopefully, just hopefully we can find a way to get into the draft by buying a pick from the Suns or something. I'll look around to see how we lost them, sorry that I forgot. Hopefully someone here might know.
in NBADraft.net it said that Cleveland traded the pick for Jiri Welsch and Boston traded it for Rajon Rondo
Bingo, Jiri Welsch. I was thinking of him the whole time, just was looking around to make sure it was him, but I forgot to comeback and edit the post. But yeah, that is Jim Paxson at his finest.
JIRI WELSCH? We brought that fag in to hit threes and whenever I watched the Cavs play, he never hit one. We traded our picks for that curly hair? We lost both our picks on him? Are you serious? I don't even want to watch the NBA Draft now... I am ashamed.
I remember coming home from school back when we made that Jiri Welsch trade with Cleveland, and I laughed. I was absolutely stunned that Jiri actually got us a 1st round pick. To top it off, we turned it into our franchise point guard while Jiri is back overseas. I feel bad for you guys for that deal.

We traded it to Phoenix on draft day last year for the rights to Rajon Rondo and Brian Grant. The pick you traded us for Jiri is the 24th pick this year (Phoenix owns it). I never said otherwise.
