 Either Smart or Crowder has to go in the deal, and I think they would prefer Crowder given there needs.

i have no idea as to why the clips would say yes to this.

Which two firsts? If they are both non-brooklyn picks then I think I'm in.

I'd still prefer dealing Bradley to dealing Crowder. With the team not taking Bradley to any of their free agent meetings, I believe they feel the same way.

I'd give Brooklyns 2018 pick with the Clippers pick if that is what it took.
2019 historical draft.  Pick 12

Tim Duncan, Oscar Robertson, Elgin Baylor, Scottie Pippen, Willis Reed, Mitch Richmond, Sam Jones, Dan Majerle, Bob Cousy, Rasheed Wallace, Shawn Kemp, Marcus Camby

I'd rather throw in Smart than Crowder, but if they insist on Crowder it isn't a deal breaker.  I'd probably rather throw in AB than either of them, but, again, it's not a deal breaker.

Throwing in one of them and the Brooklyn 2018 pick? Dealbreaker.  2017 Brooklyn pick? Dealbreaker.
I'm bitter.

The deal according to Deadmik3 on tweets at 1 pm is Griffin for Bradley, Johnson and Nets '18 pick. "Announcement soon." FWIW.  I think the polls mentioning two firsts are too steep. This one is about right.

Shucks, I voted no immediately after reading the title and assuming the picks were the two Brooklyn 1sts instead of two non-Brooklyn 1sts as the OP specifies later. Edit the title please? "Jae+Terry+Amir & MEM+LAC 1sts for Blake", maybe?

Would vote yes now, knowing the terms.

Blake without giving up a Nets 1st enables us to get two more stars. Westbrook and a top 3 pick, or Westbrook and Butler, or two top 3 picks. Something like that. If used, and used wisely, the "leftover" assets would be a dynasty that could take the Warriors head on and maybe split the next eight Finals 5-3, 4-4, or 3-5, a la the 80's Lakers and Celtics.

That deal would make us better at PF but worse as a team.

 Your nuts, Blake is 26 and was once a top 10 player in the NBA with the potential to be that again in our team.

 Mind you they could pluck any other prospect they like of ours pick any one out of

 Hunter, Young, Yabu, Zizic, Mickey, Jackson

I don't know what that guy is smoking, but are you really gonna tell me that adding a 27 year old PF who averaged 21/8/5 while sharing the court with paul and Jordan (both probably take a few reb/ast a game from him) without giving up a BRK pick would make this team worse? I get that we would have to give up amir and crowder, but Amir's defense is replaced by horford, and while I love crowder, he is not better than blake by any means. Rozier doesn't factor in because he wasn't in the rotation last year.

Three nobody's and a few low picks for a top 15 player in the league.  A guy that can be our starting pf for the next 7 years.  I do this trade all day.

I get all that, but I am guessing that GreenCoffeeBean was saying that without Bradley, the team has no outside shooting.  That could, however, be fixed by signing a FA pure shooter.
