    This has been such a problem for what 7 seasons now and still some people can't seem to get a grip. If you have Scoot being the next Allen Iverson or Dame Lillard then yeah, you fucking move Dame if no one else has Scoot as being that, you want to move Ant too at that point. If you can find a team that likes him about as much as we do, you just get value for that pick in the form of proven talent.

    There just isn't a scenario where Scoot, Dame and Shaedon make sense on a roster together and it gets even worse when you add Ant into the equation. Having players that are the right size and have the right athleticism and complementary skills is still important in this league. The myth of positionless basketball has been so overstated. We have seen first hand that you need balance on your roster and in your starting lineup or your team will be less than the sum of its parts.

    One of those players has a championship and is arguably the greatest shooter of all time.

    Bad luck for Pistons.
    One way or another Portland will get someone good.

    As far as I can tell, Roy has already delivered.

    Having a Top 4 pick in this year's draft is extremely fortunate. Might not get you Lebron but you should end up with "Bosh" or "Wade".
