    I don’t really think there’s much of a gap between 4 and 8, you’re still getting one of Garland, Culver, Hunter, Reddish, White.

    It's pretty impressive seeing him work

    Whether all of this works out in the Lakers favor or not, Griff is a top notch GM.

    Pels get the 17th pick which the Nets traded to the Hawks.

    So now the AD deal could potentially be a 4teamer.

    Meh for NOLA, they made one nice big piece (best asset of trade possibly) into many tiny ones

    ZO and Garland in 4-5 years could have been nasty

    Suns may just like Saric but head scratching move on their part

    I think i read a twitter post about how Sactown has had so many lottery picks for the last 13 years and look where they are now. Accumulating picks sounds sexy but in reality....what's the % hit rate in the NBA?

    Unless Griff actually hits on any of these picks, it means nothing.

    Griff does not want to give guaranteed money to a player he can pick at 8

    Again, thrilled to have AD, but both teams won big in this trade, Griffin is excellent at his job. I’m not sold on Hunter at all, he looks too slow to be taken as high as 4, so IMO Atlanta is reaching here

    Idk what ATL was doing there

    garland is the 4th best guy

    Pels also messed up imo not taking him. Trade may be a semi lose lose

    the NBA draft is such a toss up once you get outside the top 3

    i'm not worried about losing picks

    Yeah yeah NOLA got 4 picks in this draft....and now has max salary space...but they'll need to make some decision...are they really going to roster 4 rookies from the same draft?

    Something else has to be happening....and BKN or ATL better be taking some of our players in this 4-team deal

    I’m going to have to believe the Pelicans or Atlanta will be taking Moe, Bonga, Jones as well.
