At 2 p.m., NBA teams are no longer allowed to trade draft picks. Players must be picked tonight and then have their rights traded...

For what it's worth, I do not doubt that Boston is willing to anything and everyone for a potential franchise big man... whether that's Towns, Okafor, Cousins, Noel, Embiid, etc... that's obviously a logical move for the team.   Whether or not anyone wants our assets is another story.  WE'll see what happens. 

There's nothing surprising about the idea that Boston would trade a "godfather" package to get Okafor.  What would be surprising is if a team took Boston's "godfather" package.
hmmm... i thought by definition a godfather offer could not be refused.
I believe Gandhi is the only person who knew about real democracy — not democracy as the right to go and buy what you want, but democracy as the responsibility to be accountable to everyone around you. Democracy begins with freedom from hunger, freedom from unemployment, freedom from fear, and freedom from hatred.

It's better to trade during the draft so it doesn't hold teams to the CBA rule that prevents you from trading picks in 2 consecutive drafts.
