A lot of the next year for a lot of the NBA is riding on the third pick .

The land scape could really change ......

Or not ......could be interesting

ESPN sources say Philadelphia is offering Nerlens Noel, No. 24 and No. 26 in tonight's draft and Robert Covington for Boston's No. 3 pick

That's a decent return imo.

Too many draft picks. We need to get rid of picks, not get more. Kind of feels like filler.

I want quality, not quantity.

Jesus, Crowder involved in Butler talks.

Where u see that

Jae Crowder has been involved in the Bulls-Celtics talks, per a source.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

Woj.  Celtics deal for butler in the table

WOW! I hope this goes down!

COME TO PAPA, JIMMY BUCKETS!!!
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

WOJ BOMB - Boston and Chicago still talking Jimmy Butler trade!
A 3-teamer that brings Noel and Butler without breaking up the core (too much) is basically my dream.
I like Noel with our defensive wings.  Butler is an upgrade in talent over everyone we have

You just know that Butler is on KD's list, too.

  • GOT IT!!!
Butler is probably our first choice.  Okafor is plan b.  Plan c is to take Dunn and try trading the guard log jam ... With lots and lots of other options being considered.

It's Noel. Okafor isn't an option anymore, apparently.

Don't kill his dream...

I won't be announcing picks guys. But is it ok if I share trades?

I'm good with that. Might take all night for ESPN announce it.

thats wise of Philly to hang onto him. They shouldnt sell low on that guy.

I can't stand the ESPN broadcast, it is basically a pro-Sixers show this year.
