I really want Fultz on this team. I think he fits our needs perfectly as a scorer and shot creator. I think he slides right in from day one and fulfills the Evan Turner role from 2 years ago, except way better.

Please talk me down. I am legit upset that Danny might trade 1 for 3 and a pile of rocks. I trust Danny, but I turning up our nose at Fultz is a bad idea.

Tell me things like "These are just rumors" or "Danny is just driving up the price" or "SMOKESCREEN"  -- make me feel better about this. Please.

I'm sorry, I can not help you. In fact I would like to feel better as well.

Watch some Josh Jackson videos.  Consider that he is more explosive, will be able to get his shot off easier in the NBA, is a creative, nifty passer, and a really good defender and rebounder.

In short, become psyched about Josh Jackson.
DKC Seventy-Sixers:

PG: G. Hill/D. Schroder
SG: C. Lee/B. Hield/T. Luwawu
SF:  Giannis/J. Lamb/M. Kuzminskas
PF:  E. Ilyasova/J. Jerebko/R. Christmas
C:    N. Vucevic/K. Olynyk/E. Davis/C. Jefferson

I have. I'm not thrilled about having an undersized 4 with a broken shot. He's a 3&d player and the 3 is questionable. I love Marcus Smart but we don't need another gritty defender who can't shoot.

I'd be more excited if he could shoot like KD or Klay Thompson

I am with you, but we don't know what the trade is.

So we are trading out of #1 just to keep Bradley? Screw Bradley, I want Fultz in Green. Noone else wanted to workout for the C's except him. Bradley and Crowder can't both walk for all I care.

I'm very apprehensive about the rumors myself.  Now that we have the opportunity to draft the next superstar, I'm not fond of the idea of trading it.  But in the event that there's fire underneath the smoke, it's worth noting that Fultz isn't guaranteed to make us contenders, and it's also worth noting that he's not the only player with the potential to make us contenders. 

And I'll also say this:  whether I like a move or not, Ainge has been a shrewd trader over the last several years and he has a ton of leverage here.  Philly and LA apparently want Fultz badly, but they can't have him unless Ainge gets exactly what he wants.  They know it, he knows it.

I can't imagine that the first time in history we win the lottery, and we don't draft #1.

At this point I rather trade IT for #3, and filler, than Fultz.
