Yes he was.
His one comment offered nothing to the topic other than to question a poster. OFFER SOMETHING or move the fuck along
that isn't the criteria for this thread, or any thread on this board, ever. If it was, your posts, my posts, and PVC's post total, would be about 1/3rd.
Take a look, again, at what he said. But instead of looking at it defensively, look at it via each sentence.
#1
Didn't the 2013 draft already happen?

Not critical. If anything it's a clarification. I personally thought you meant a different year, and accidentally typed last years pick (instead of just saying the players name, which I think most people would've understood).
#2.
Also, who's 2014 pick is that? Houston's or from another team? That pick won't be worth much if it's from Houston...
Again, not being critical. And actually, it IS offering up something to the topic, saying the pick wouldn't (probably) be that high of a pick from Houston.

So essentially, you think it's fair value to trade LA for Asik, Motiejunas, and Jones?
This is really the only sentence that one could argue is "criticizing", but I'm not sure it warranted the response it got.
Just saying, how you responded might just be a bit of an overreaction to what dviss said.
Are you suggesting that we only have people respond to these threads who themselves have trade ideas? We can only comment on the subject if we have our own trade scenario?
I'm not sure thats fair or even a practical standard to set.
