We can trade a 2018 restricted for one of theirs. They can't pick. 11 times

They can package them and move up in the draft

A novel idea and extremely doable


They can package to move up with both sets of picks 1sts and 2nds

If you were picking 8th in this draft wouldn't you offer


A couple number future #1s and your pick to get pick #1 or 2?

I mentioned this several weeks back that Boston was the team to make good with on the phone

damn, gonna pick a whole damn starting five.

Not actually true- the Suns traded the Twolves first that they own. HOWEVER, that pick is protected 1-12 this year, so they won't get it. Next year it's also protected 1-12, so they also won't get it. Then it changes into just 2 2nd rounders. So basically they traded 2 2nd rounders for Wright, which is probably fair.

Green deal not finalised yet, but likely will be by Monday.

11 picks? That's almost an entire nba roster. Something has got to give cuz getting all those picks on top of the contacts they currently have makes no sense

If we end up picking 2-3-4, I would say we should really look at seeing how many good, near term picks the Celtics would pay for that pick.

We're in need of both quantity and quality.

Heck, even if we win #1, I'm not so sure we shouldn't also consider moving it for multiple first/second rounders.

If it turns out to be 2 2nd rounders, that's a steal

And yet you act like Early and Thanasis Antetokounmpo don't exist

I think he meant a steal for phx. I really do not know what I think about the trade. I mean Phx did upgrade their talent but he is not going to put them over the top and they could lose him this summer. If they keep him then great but then that eats minutes away from younger players like Len and Plumlee. Maybe they'll flip plumlee or one of the Morris bros.

I meant, steal for the Suns. I'm not sure if that's what the confusion was.
