    Lol we sent the draft rights of 2 guys drafted In 2009 and 2014 to the Knicks on the Carr deal.
    That's wild lol

    I imagine the new crew is already paying off. I bet they discovered we had the rights of these guys but Pelinka, Rambii and the FO had no idea

    I think buying the pick for tonight reinforces that we are NOT running it back. Let's assume Kleber and Nick Smith Jr. wouldn't be included in a run-it-back scenario, that leaves 2 open roster spots - now taken by Carr and a 2nd round pick. I'm guessing the FO has ideas that are dependent on whether or not Ayton opts in (Smart too, but he's not getting traded if he opts in).

    Could definitely see us trying to move up again.

    Yeah I think we are moving up, this was a way to get in.

    If we are sending the other 2nd, it's probably for someone we would be giving a full contract I'd imagine
