Just a reminder that the ORLANDO MAGICS are listening to offers to move down to the mid-to-late 9th round from the #1 pick.


I'm looking to add a 10th round pick to move down (the air is getting thin in these rounds....) Players also welcome as part of any package deal.


And FWIW -- i'll likely be away from a computer from 7 pm on..... So if i'm not able to move the pick by then I may wait till tomorrow morning. I have some offers in and out, so in fairness to folks i'd like to give them the chance to complete the deal.


send u an offer

please  :-\   ;D

Minnesota Timberwolves somewhat begrudgingly select Keyon Dooling.  No offense to Keyon, who has defensive abilities that we fully respect, but there were just others we wanted more that went earlier this round.

Buying an early 9th rounder
Offering an early 10th rounder and a 11th rounder (21) maybe something more...

Good pick.

couldn't believe he was still there. he's still young, he's not a cancer and he does all the little things. solid player, and the last pick in the 8th round? i'm delighted with that.

Certainly good value at this point.  He's a guy who does a lot of "little things" (and actually does them well).  He can score, shoot, rebound a bit, pass.  For the end of the 8th round, you got a steal.

especially in light that his horrid contract doesn't count in our analysis

in all seriousness though, great steal at the end of the 8th.  :D

and eternal gratitude for a early pick in this round

You can also pick a player I want and talk about trade value later.

Some good 8th rounders imo. Some nice players left for the 9th too.I'm impressed by a lot of the gms. Good research.

question for edgar:

at the start of every round, you literally beg for a pick in that round, have you ever pulled off a trade to get one?
