Sure along the road Irving might be top 5 PG, but Lowry  will not be that much far off.
Why give up that potential when you're building to the future?

I don't see a viable case to do so unless you're convinced that Irving "won't" get better.

No I admit I gave up potential. Potential.

Lowry is and will be a near all star level PG in the next 3 years, that where Kyrie turns superstar, I get that. The team got better defensively, Lowry and MKG will shut wings down.

I got a pick this round to add more solid depth to the team.

I understand the team is no longer a TOTF candidate, but as of right now, Kyrie and Lowry are not that far apart. Kyrie is a better scorer, Lowry better defender. The team is still a nice fit, complete with shooters, inside prescense and defense is even better.
So you want to be a team that's outside the playoffs and has a lesser future?

Well, Barnes and MKG has great upside too don't they?

With the 6.2, Detroit selects Spencer Hawes.

That was a kindness to me. Thank you.

Hawes was a very smart pick.  I thought he would make a great Pekovic replacement for IP.

Sure they do but Irving wasn't going to hold them back, he would have helped their development.

Yoki, what direction are you trying to take your team?

Future or win now?

This honestly seems like a lateral move to me since this game is played in the short term.

All I can say is watch them both this year.  You're going to be surprised about how big the gap becomes, and very quickly.  Irving is a superstar.

100% agree.

I wouldn't have liked Hawes with Bosh.

I think if you are going with a big man who plays away from the rim and is only a so-so defender, you are better off bringing in a PF and sliding Bosh to C.

Congrats on TP #800.  It's good to see competitors posting something other than rhetoric.
