Hmmm. So much for the weak draft class argument. Apparently there are players they would like to get in first round.

Now we're gonna do something stupid like trade Herb for a mid first. Watch.

As we should. Her value drops each day. Should have traded him at the deadline

They will trade the future assets and gamble on Zion. They know if it fails, they'll be gone and the next sucker will worry about the aftermath.

We should have never traded for Queen, right now we'd have a top 5 pick.

I'd rather Herb + top 5 pick over Queen + mid first.

I'm guessing we'd have to get 2 FRPs for Herb...of course, I COULD...be wrong.

Exactly, you only make that ridiculous move for Queen if you thought he’d get us to the playoffs.

Dumars showed no ability to self assess the Pels and Gayle needs to neuter his ability to make trades.

The question I guess is who is worth giving up Herb to trade back into the mid first round for?

Who said the draft class was weak? You know Dumars and Weaver are about to throw away the Milwaukee 27 pick for a pick in the 20s.

You have no way of knowing this. They could have had 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, or 10. And the numbers say it's more than likely 7, 8, 9, or 10.

We had a better shot in the lottery last year. No dice.

We’d actually have a chance for two top 5 picks….

Pacers pick falls to five, it woulda been ours.

We were actively trying to win every game this year and still finished number 7. You don’t think if we had our own pick we would lost more on purpose? Our odds woukd be greater than at 7

It’s not the Milwaukee pick, it’s our only pick next year. If he trades that I’m turning in my fan card. I’ll be done.
