You said you loved Ntilikina. And he should be the pick. You flip flop every day.
Briggs alternative facts. Every year the fireworks are hot and little happens draft nite.
Every year.
Still can happen.

I kind of liked that phil demanded more. rule one when trading with a division rival: strip them with as many assets as you can get. we are giving up kp who will torch us four times each year for a couple of years until we get better. two picks and brown aren't enough for that.

I think if Boston met his price he would of traded him, he would of been stupid not to. I would of taken 2 assets instead of 3 to get a deal done but still having Porzingis isnt a bad place to be. They just need to tank very hard next year to get a do everything wing. That means not signing any free agents that are a net positive. Stay away from good players like Jrue Holiday which can destroy our tank job. It has to happen, after next season we can start adding pieces

Jazz-- I think Phil by his own words created expectation. I didn't see another gm in basketball actually go on tv prior to the draft to basically acknowledge that he was going to potentially trade his player. At that point when you realize thT maybe a deal like Jackson Chris Bledsoe might just be more appealing than keeping Kp

Phil set a high price that did not get met.
He said they were taking calls, and perhaps making a few too. Aldridge and Deandre Jordan were also put in play. Its business.
The no show KP did in protest was silly and stupid on his part. Phil sent a message that for the right price nobody is untouchable.
Even a unicorn.
KP has to decide does he want to be part of the problem, or part of the solution. Phil when he coached did pretty good getting guys to come play triangle ball even with Jordan who was not easy to play with. Core is now young.....Nitty, KP and Willy.
Don't get me wrong, some of the deals being put out was great and I was on board with them. Ainge could have KP, Horford and Haywood as a front line? Phil held his ground. Thats a good thing. Ainge held his ground. Not sure that was a good thing.

So two years of dysfunction and we get a blown exit meeting and Trade KP. What is another tanking year going to do to the unicorn? He stops showing up for games? Takes his promotional money and plays in Latvia? Philly's sitting on a bunch of hurt coulda shoulda wouldas and everyone else is trade bait.
The only people who love the Hinkie process are fantasy league website admins and people who spend half their paychecks on Powerball and Megamillions.
