I don't ever want to hear from people saying there's no such thing as too many picks.

There's no such thing as too many draft picks.

Do you guys realize we have limited roster space?  This forum is nuts tonight.

Maybe Danny uses those picks then and some bums on th team to upgrade.  #3 16 young, hunter for Noel and Covington and guess what we woulda got rid of picks, gotten our SF and pf and still coulda picked ya ba dabba and detonate Davis.

This is the part where Ainge trades the remaining picks for magic beans and some self described intelligent fans think it's the best deal that was out there.

Trader Danny is gonna keep us hanging until he can finally swing that big trade. Or retire.

But free agency is around the corner. Fireworks! Heh.

Patience.

Ryan Anderson, here we come!
Once you are labeled 'the best' you want to stay up there, and you can't do it by loafing around.

The KG trade and Brooklyn trade has absolutely hurt Danny's ability to trade with and his expectations for trades. No GM wants to look like an idiot like Billy King, and Danny now expects home runs on every single trade. You have to hit a single or a double every once in awhile, too.

Givony of DX said that a lot of players who dropped had agents who insisted on avoiding competitive workouts interacting with other players.

this is an interesting piece of information

having said this, this was a doomsday for DX: I have to check but I'm almost sure they got everything wrong outside the top-2. A completely random mock should have done better than this.
The honest truth is this entire draft went to ****. I don't think anybody could have predicted this.

This is a situation Danny should have been prepared for beforehand. Just throwing away these supposed "assets" for nothing because "other teams are trying to rip us off" is a sign of incompetence.

If nobody's trading with you, maybe you should stop stockpiling draft picks...

Anige had plenty of offers today, but he felt like they weren't enough.

Ainge will strike out in free agency. Always does.

Idk what would be worse, drafting all these guys or giving a max contract to Al Horford.

Pick your poison!
