I would of traded both for Henson. Meyers seems like a head case.

Henson looked like a stud in SL, but let us see how it works out.

I believe some of our guys were a little shaken by the reality of pro basketball, when Moore and JJ were traded during warm-ups for a game.

I would have made the trade with the Heat and picked up Perry Jones III to add to Sullinger and Melo.  Frankly, I have no idea why we didn't do that.  

Rondo, Bradley, Green/Jones, Sullinger, Melo in three years or so seems like a pretty good start to me.

Perry Jones is injured already from what I've read.

Some guy also said his knees won't last long.

no way. Having two picks and drafting a guy with the skills of Sully and a center with upside like Melo is worth more than trading up for one guy. You cant use summer league play to make real predictions anyway

This. If sully didn't fall I could have seen us trading up, but he didn't so Danny rightfully scooped him up. No way you make a 2 for 1 trade at a point when you get a top 7 draft talent

I really thought Sully would be there and 1 of these guys, Nicholson, T Jones, Harkness, or White would be around. If any one of these guys was around it would have been a slam dunk draft.

Looking at it now, yea I would traded the two picks to move up.

What we know now? We don't know anything now.

Ask about this at the end of next year and again in three years.

Anyone else look at the title and think of "Wide Awake" by Katy Perry?  ;D
Um...no.
