Lyles for Saric straight up? Do you do it?

I like Lyles, but yes, I'd do it in a heartbeat. I think the Sixers will ask for something extra though, rightly or not.

Saric wants to be traded because he wants to start...that won't change here.

Saric is starting to come across as Kanter-primadonna-esque to me. Wants to start without any NBA experience. Good luck with that.

I liked the little I saw from him too. Teams would have regretted not getting him had he not gone to the Kings... He just got the kiss of death with this draft.

The Kings got a draft pick right? I guess once every five years ain't bad.

They usually have their own picks (I think), they just mess up a lot.

He can always be traded, or released. Or get washed out of the league like Whiteside, and look at him now. If he develops his game--and that's mostly up to him--I think he'll be fine, because the talent and physical tools are there. If he develops, he'll make it be it with the Kings or some other team.

Skal is a baller. I wish we traded Burke+all second round picks to get him at the end of the first.

Yeah, Skal looks good. I was worried he'd be gone at 12 when the Jazz were drafting.

Here's Dejounte Murray in the same game...

Skal and Murray looking nice so far. Both look like they could be huge steals.
