Taking a step back to increase your ceiling is not a panic move-

It is when you're a top 4-6 seed and you're dealing a valuable asset. I mean we all hate on BI but the odds are that this pick will not come close to the player he is.

its actual what teams should do but don’t.

Moving yourself to the black hole of the middle is not what teams should do.

How are they over paying? You think BI for Duren and the fifth pick is overpaying?

Yes. We should get at least another 1 and a swap in that deal.

We did this last year- when we were healthy we were the 1 seed. Lets live in reality they were basically an 8 seed that got swept. We are pretty far away from the cream of the crop in the west.

So you can eventually make your ceiling higher and reach the top rather stuck in the play in. Again you assume we’re not in the black hole of the middle already. What do you call being in the play-in 3 years in a row?

Thats fair considering its not the strongest draft. The swap may be pushing it though.
