I think they have enough cap space that it doesn't matter. Assuming Gordon is healthy or traded for someone ready to contribute, this team can easily take the next logical step forward with just internal development and $14 million worth of veteran Free Agents.

An interesting observation from McNamara, Otto Porter weighed less (198) than Austin Rivers (203) at the combine. As much as most of us see him filling a hole, there's no way he'll be ready to contribute much this season.

I think you're going to find that the trade value for top picks in this draft just doesn't warrant moving them.

Otto Porter reminds me of Tayshaun Prince a lot, and not just in terms of build. I'd like to have Tayshaun for the long haul...he's a good player that's had a good career, although certainly not a star. And I agree that he won't be ready to really contribute for at least a year or two.
