    I find their request not just insulting, but hilarious. Teams are going to give up TWO 1sts AND a starter for a rental?? What world is this? What imaginary dreamscape have they imagined here?

    I'll give them the #28 and now Clarkson is off the board. They can have a protected pick and Tarik Black, but the deal gets pulled soon. Keep f***ing around with Cleveland if you want, but we all know where George is going to end up.

    Underwhelming fluff piece, but it was sort of cool seeing a great like Thomas give him pointers.

    Also good to see a video with Lonzo that doesn't include his dad mouthing off and taking the spotlight.

    Great segment. IT never grows old, damn. He looks better and younger than newly retired players.

    We've talked about him a bit on the 28 thread. He's got an interesting skill set and a beautiful shot. He's very, very weak physically though. He needs a lot of work on his body. He could be Ryan Kelly.

    Maybe, but Ryan couldn't pass as well as Tyler, Ryan couldn't move as well, and Ryan couldn't handle the ball as well as him.

    We'll see. I'm not sold. If we're going after a stretch big, If prefer DJ Wilson.

    I think we might trade the pick during draft day to the Kings. 2 for 5, 10. Trade No. 5 and 28 to the Pacers, draft Luke Kennard at 10.

    lol to each his own, but I believe Luke brings a special skill that is missing from the team.

    I don't know why Boston screwed this.

    I would personally rather have a number 1 pick than 2 or even 3 picks in the range of 2-7, depending on where they fall.

    Chances are the number 1 pick is a superstar but the others aren't. Would I trade three number 2 picks for a number 1? probably not. But if its lets say #2, #4 and #5...thats a no brainer to me.

    Thats like Randle and Russell vs. KAT....a no brainer.

    And if they want Jackson...well that is pretty muchd duplicating Jaylon Brown. Another hyper-athletic defender that lacks the skillsets most desired these days.

    Looks like they won't trade the No. 2 pick, if that is what Mona means.
