Feel like draft night should deserves it’s own thread.



Let’s see what Weaver pulls off after we take Cade

Some guys I hope we might take/trade up for by the end of the night :

Garuba/Mcbride/Ayayi/Petrusev/Greg Brown/ Kessler Edwards

Some trades around the league so far:

If Wizards move Westbrook, are they all in on the rebuild and ready to move Beal to GSW for their assets as well? Or will another team come forward with a better haul for Beal? Or are they just going to keep him and see how he looks with the new guys. If they keep him does it mean KCP ends up being moved quickly in another deal to another team.

Cavs still seem a bit stuck between rebuild and compete for playoffs now... the Rubio deal is a bit surprising for sure.

Seems the plan is to free more cap space to add pieces around Beal perhaps.

Wonder what the Cavs deal means for Sexton

Can we make this thread spoiler free? Hate how woj spoils the show. Don’t mind the trades but the picks are annoying.

I don’t know why Cleveland did that deal but ok.

Thunder had conversations with all 5 teams above them in the draft about moving up. It will be really interesting to see what they do tonight as well. #6, #16, #18, #34, #36, #55.... Seems like 6 draft picks is too many to add to a roster they will need to do some 2 for 1 or 3 for 1 type trades tonight.

Agreed

Philly bought #53 in the draft for $2 million from New Orleans. Zion has got to love seeing **** like that.

Hopefully we don't see Gores getting cheap trying to cash in on any of our 2nd rounders.

They will stash them all overseas under their new foreign team.

can you put "no spoilers" in the title or OP? just so it's obvious to everyone.

To me it means this is just part of a larger deal or multiple deals they intend to do and needed to get an extra capable pg in return. Cheaper now then to wait until you make another deal and need one. So I'd watch what other good sized deal the Cavs make.

It's starting to feel very real the closer we get to it, surreal that the Pistons are about to draft a legit franchise player.
The more you watch Cade's interviews, the more you realize how special he is the way he carries himself.
I'm already pining for Summer League.

Ugh. Horrible trade. Weaver is unbelievably bad at trades

Must have somebody in sight to drop Plumlee for nothing..

WTF so Plumlee had negative value, that's brutal.

Wow so we got to have to be going after somebody!

What does this mean? Troy's beginning to make moves we won't quite understand. Getting nervous but excited now!
