    Your gotta see it through correctly tho.

    You made a ton of sacrifices (kiddies, time, year 1 of Bron investment), you got a ton of luck along the way (Bron coming alone, getting the 2nd pick 3 years straight then getting the 4th this summer)...so don't s*** the bed in the home stretch.

    That's all I'm saying. We have a 3max scenario, so make sure you still have assets left over to supplement it. Again, the was a way to get a max, get AD and keep some kids, not just Kuz. I'm just hoping now that if we expand this trade, some other cheap assets come along with AD. But most importantly...I hope a max guy comes (Kawhi, Kyrie or Butler).

    Woah... That's gotta change the current trade structure.

    I'm not sure it does yet although for now... they can't trade an asset they don't technically have.

    We should hopefully try turning this into a 3-way trade where they also take our 3 kids.

    Please don’t. :D Maybe I’m in the minority, but I did not log onto CL hoping it would crash. I logged on hoping it was active, so if a big move went down I could actually discuss it with my fellow fans.

    This is actually really good for us....ATL can definitely absorb Wagner/Bonga/JJ...lots of assets changed hands here...

    I'm very surprised that the Pels did not get an established player for 4th...and ATL kept 10th?

    GREAT trade for ATL here...doesn't sound like Garland will go 4th then?

    Actually would prefer that. Maybe if you stopped jumping on every post that even mildly criticizes Magic I would not feel the need to point it out. If you know me at all after 15 years here and on CL you would know I prefer to keep the conversations on topic and on bball.

    8, 17, and 35 and they dump Solomon Hill for 2 second rounders. Why didn’t we hire Griffin again?

    This 1st will likely also turn to 2 future seconds.

    So in terms of draft compensation for AD, Griff gets:

    Gained: 8,17,35
    Cavs 2020 1st
    Lakers 2021 (or 2022), 2024 (or 2025) 1st
    Lakers 2023 1st pick swap

    Lost: 57 and future 2nd

    Yo!

    This is why you need to get a worthy president.

    So if i have educated myself enough, this means in order to get that max slot, we will have to talk to ATL about delaying their pick until the 30th or trade with them sending out contracts?

    So now...NOLA has max cap space? Are they trying to go for one of the top FA's?

    God we need to know how this affects us....I hope we're dumping some guys to ATL!!

    That's a lot of picks, Ainge saw that and doesn't need to pop the viagra with the wife tonight.

    Good work by the newly hired Griff

    I much rather have the #4 in this draft.

    If this was the NFL, huge huge haul.
