1. Depending who is available at 15, I may be interested in trading down to the 20-24 range

2. Not for this draft, but for the next one, is it time to discuss allowing trading of individual picks, rather than just draft slots? I got the logic of not allowing that for the first couple, but not sure if that logic may have changed.

It’s a fair question to ask (#2). I’d probably be a no on it though. There hasn’t been much correlation between pick spot and performance so the current structure seems pretty balanced. My opinion would be that trading individual picks corrupts that balance because some people’s concepts of pick value don’t represent reality. I think the structure is doing some people a favor and the gap between owners would grow if we loosen the trade reigns.

Nah. He is east. Just a ****** up sleeper.

Just woke up and reviewed the many offers. Thank you. I’ll be trading with dbkc for #16. Dbkc to confirm.

I had a dream that Horace Grant lived down the street from me and we were shooting hoops in his driveway and talking about his career.

Some team name potential here. Not quite peggy...

and then he introduced you to his nephews, who were all five years old. "This is my nephew, Jerami. Always wants to take the last shot in the driveway. Let me tell you, Midge, there's a lot of value in just finding the open man who can knock down shots. Used to have a teammate who had problems with that. Trust me, I would know."

"Oh yeah, these are my other nephews, Jerian and Jerai, but they don't matter. They'll probably end up in, I don't know, if the NBA ever has a minor league maybe they'd make it."

Confirmed and…looking to drop back 2-4 spots. I’ll wait just one hour and will pick if no offers come in - feel free to just post the trade if you pick 12-14th and I’ll confirm. My 10 for your 12-14

Trading 10 to 24k for 14. 24k to confirm. Quickest trade ever?
