    Trading KG and Pierce for a handful of #1s and trading Kobe from LA is a BIG difference. Mitch would've been ran out of town before he hung up the phone after announcing the trade.

    You're right about that. I have NO IDEA why they didn't trade Pau for something... anything. They traded Lamar to Dallas. But Pau non-trade was a big blunder. DHoward too. And Nash.

    Damn, I'm gonna cry.

    Dwight was an epic screw up. I think many of us saw the writing on the wall with Dwight leaving.

    As oppose to Mitch who got jack squat for Pau? Gave up 2 picks for a 36yr old who had back problems, in a sense Mitch got Ainged himself by Pho gm. It regardless of where these picks position, he still got 3 unprotected 1st for 3 old a** geezers whose production was already showimg significant signs of decline at time of the trade

    Mitch got previously Ainged by Ainge in the Gary Payton trade, Kupchak is really a simple minded fool without the aid of the Logo.

    I don't think anyone saw how much of a disaster Howard had become. I started noticing how mentally bad he was when he Kwame Brown'd the ball almost everytime I saw him get the ball in the post.

    That's why he'll be creating his 3 point shots with his fine ISO skills next year, not catch and shoot. That Dwight you gotta love him.

    :Nope:

    Well, this thing got pretty wild. Still, after everything, doesn't appear anything has really changed for us, Ball at 2 has been the story from the start, seems to be the likely outcome still.

    Look, Lonzo got a D-Russ style Sports Science, clearly he's our pick.

    I believe the idea is that Philly would take Fultz 1, we take Ball, and then the C Bags take Josh Jackson (who they apparently would take at 1 anyway) at 3. So they get their top choice and they get future firsts. Like Lowe said on SC, it's a gamble if Fultz is as good as advertised and Jackson isn't, teams don't often trade the #1 pick for a reason.
