I'm 100% OK with it. Was hoping to pay Peanuts for Gallo. That's it.

Well, at least there weren't any big men traded for reasonable prices.

I'm happy with it. We have a top pick in a great draft. If people don't want to properly value it they can go screw.

You're joking right Roy?

Drummond was the guy I was hoping for.
But I am certainly okay with no move being made.

Very, very disappointed we didn't take a swing at Taj Gibson, Andrew Bogut, or PJ Tucker.

All I know is once the draft happened, and if we do indeed end up with the 1st pick, that is certainly going to be very valuable, and most GM's would salivate at that.

Knock on wood, but pray we do get the 1st...

We didn't have to make the big "fireworks" deal, but we could've at least tried to address our rebounding issues. Toronto and Washington both addressed significant team needs and we didn't. Looks like we'll just be happy to make it to the 2nd round.

It's official: Today belongs to the crickets.

Time to roll out the usual suspects:

Danny: "We tried, but no one was available at the right price."
Brad: "We really like the team we have."
Wyc: "I’m sure we’ll see fireworks this trade deadline this summer."

Seriously, no need to even interview these guys at this point.

That said, I’m not really upset. I hope Danny adds Bogut or a comparable big soon. Otherwise, bring on Lonzo Ball!!!  ;D

Not even Bogut?
I don't get it. Are we not interested?
Why wait for buyout and fight other teams over his services when we have all this 2nd rounders...
