Why not? we're tanking right? as a side reward, it would also make celtics vs clippers games pretty awkward

we need a  developing sharp shooter on the bench, flip brooks or crawford for rivers.

I just don't see it happening with Doc leaving.  He is on a rookie contract and will not be moved.

People were screaming for us to get Rivers last year (move up they said) in the draft.

I remember it a little bit differently. From what I recall, the buzz on here was mostly of the "he might be ok, but he's definitely going higher than he should because of his last name, and there's no way we should move up to get him" variety.

THere were a lot of "package our two picks to move up and get him" threads approaching last year's draft. And that's ok. But he sucks.

We should have drafted Austin just so his father would leave him for a contendor. 

Simmons could have mediated the family therapy sessions on Grantland.

While we have a plethora of SG's and no need or fit for Rivers, labeling him terrible after his rookie season is quite premature.

Some people expected him to do about as well as he did last season.
