First round picks are wildly overrated

New Orleans will win the lottery and keep their pick.

This is more of a ripoff than Gasol to the Lakers because Memphis got Marc back and he's been fantastic for them (although nobody predicted that).

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Unreliable source says a turned down trade was Randle + Clarkson.

Man I am glad Davis gets to play with another star because it was looking really loving bleak.

Same, I was starting to wonder when trade rumors around him would heat up since they were stuck in purgatory


But yeah, that team is gonna be loving nuts

I would have missed Randle, but this would have been cool too

Probably a better offer if we actually had a pick to offer this decade

Woj: "The trade is for Buddy and 2 first round picks"
Me: "That poo poo sucks"
Stein: "and Tyreke and Langston are involved"
Me: "That poo poo sucks even more"
Stein: "correction, it's 1 first and 1 second"
Me: "This is getting worse"
Stein: "And there are protections on this"
Me: :wtf:
Stein: "And the Kings are waiving Langston"
Me: :sigh:
Stein: "And they are throwing in Omri Casspi for no drat reason"

I mean the pelicans should make the playoffs as now Denver and Portland are the only challenge left. So this could be 15 and Hield for Cousins.

The best possible ending for this is Sacramento winning the lottery, having to give up their pick to the Sixers, and New Orleans somehow missing the playoffs and getting pick 2 or 3

I am really, really basking in this. Sacramento and New Orleans could hit 1-2 in the lotto and the Kings wouldn't get to use either pick
