    I still think the team just thinks we have enough young players to continue to play and evaluate and want to do so, in order to determine our true needs. We have like 10-11 guys in year one or two. I just think the team feels making moves right now is not in the best interests until they have more time to evaluate.

    Not even sure its a rebuild anymore as much as its positioning themselves to be a contender. Going all in. They are now in first in the west. Its tight though.

    Yeah if that’s what Philly was offering for Brogdon, I’m glad we told them to pound sand.

    either way, it looks like the dominos are starting to fall.

    Seems to me Toronto thinks Ochai is better than whoever they’d get with the 28th(ish) pick

    a few people were crapping on him; not everybody; not most

    that team was going nowhere and desperately needed changes. The current team is going nowhere as well. it's arguable if it's a better nowhere because of the lottery. But apparently there's enough newness to the current route to make people ambivalent....or maybe just bored

    Jerami seems like a pretty good fit for this club. That being said Dallas only has one tradeable FRP in 2027 because they could owe a FRP in this draft but the protections on that allow it to roll into the next draft which makes 2024-2026 unavailable, they also owe Brooklyn their 2029 pick unprotected which makes 2027-2029 unavailable. I don't think an unrestricted 2027 pick should get the job done for Jerami. The roster does have Lively and OMP but I doubt they'd give up Lively and I don't like OMP, 2027 FRP and lets say Hardaway for Jerami. I think that's the best we'd get from Dallas.

    Maybe the Kings would give up their 2028 and 2030 FRPs (only two that they could trade together) along with Monk's expiring contract, Lyles and Duarte for Jerami if they are as motivated as has been reported.

    That kings trace would be decent. I like Lyles.

    Brogdon will probably be moved by the trade deadline next year. Unless (long shot) the team suddenly levels up and they want to roll with what they have.

    This deadline is GM’s trading crumbs for other teams crumbs.

    and, expiring contracts don't have as much value as the imaginary value they used to have....RLEC for the imaginary win!!....bake that fucking cake!

    Or it's a sign this draft really fucking sucks and it's just like having a second round pick in any other year. I dunno.

    This is like watching paint dry. When does the deadline end? Isn’t it usually noon?

    that can't be true because there's no way that Portland would have the timing and bad luck to own two first round picks in a terrible draft

    It is noon and you're right it has been for a while now. I do remember back in the day when it was midnight eastern.
