Celticsblog Draft III Interest Thread

[The Walker Wiggle]

CHA trades: 4th rounder (11), 5th rounder  (9) and 8th rounder (11)

POR trades: 3rd rounder  (12) and 9th rounder (16)

This is the type of deal the old Roy Hobbs would be proud of.

[Donoghus]

Sorry for the delay.

I'll make sure to work on the draft board tonight and tomorrow before the draft starts.

[Roy Hobbs]

Detroit sends: 1st rounder (7), 3rd rounder  (7), 5th rounder (7), 6th rounder (24), 8th rounder (24)

Toronto sends: 1st rounder (18), 2nd rounder (13), 4th rounder (12)

I think this is a pretty bad deal for Detroit.  Yes, the 2nd rounder is nice, but that's mitigated by giving up a 3rd, 5th, 6th, and 8th, and only getting back a 4th to off-set that.

Plus, in my opinion the difference between 7th and 18th is pretty huge.  It's the difference between a super-duper star, and a player on the fringe of stardom.  I think this is a great, great deal for Toronto.

If you want one of these three guys please PM the Bulls.

One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn’t belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?

Yes I know everyone wants Durant. We shall see who gets him. Durant could end up better than CP3

I agree. Big misstep by Detroit who never should have involved either the team's 6th or 8th.

My money is on Demar Derozen. He's top 20 talent.

Great trade by Toronto.

[Celtic Fan Forever]

yea, im having second thoughts about the trade now... Oh well... Still looking to deal before the draft... ANYTHING is up for grabs.

[wdleehi]

Denver is still willing to make trades.

[Roy Hobbs]

CHA trades: 4th rounder (11), 5th rounder  (9) and 8th rounder (11)

POR trades: 3rd rounder  (12) and 9th rounder (16)

Thanks.  That one should help both teams.  We like our depth right now, although there's a chance that we'll be left without an elite player to build around.

[johnnyrondo]

Who will trade up to #4?  PM the Bulls and we'll see tomorrow... 

[Donoghus]

Draft board should now be updated.  Please let me know of any issues or concerns. 

Draft starts tomorrow morning. 

[Celtic Fan Forever]

Looking to make deals involving the first 3 rounds.
