re: We could still literally add picks 1 and 2

I like Mitchell, but to get him you'd give up depth and length. He's a top 5 guard, but I'd disagree he's a fringe top 5 player. He's in the higher end of the second tier of stars

Not in the trade that I proposed or inquired. It's the 3 picks and 2 players (they could add in Temple to make the money work).

Starting 5
McCollum, Mitchell, Ingram, Zion, Val

Bench
Alvarado, Lewis, Murphy, Jones, Hayes, Hernangomez, plus we would still have exceptions.

It could work, in the miniscule world where we would get the first two picks. I just don't know if that is enough or too much to get Mitchell. I don't like star chasing. But that is a Championship level team and would be the best starting 5 in the league. Plus, a really good bench..
