hornets mad dumb</div>

Why are the Hornets dumb? This isn't that great of a draft. What's the point of having a young, undeveloped player on the roster who'll barely contribute when you can go out and have more money in free agency to sign a veteran that can come in and play? The Hornets have their youth. His name is Chris Paul. Now they're thinking in the present.
 
I thought the Blazers were trying to move some of their picks, not gain more.

It definitely makes you wonder. I thought they had too many young players?

I'd be surprised if Portland wanted to take on RJ's contract.

I don't think money is a concern for the Blazers owner.

Buying picks isnt a concern, but knowing that all these young players contracts are going to end soon enough and demand lots of money has to be on their minds. I see Portland looking for a PG instead of a SF. (they seem ready to let Outlaw be the starting SF)

I'm not saying it couldnt happen, I just doubt Portland trades for Jefferson.
 
I hope this ends the rumors of the Nets selling 21
