that wasn't the problem. the trade checker only lets you continue if you say you're exercising the option. it must have had something to do with the dollars.

I'd move up if Walker is on the board at 17 and there could be other players worth moving up 6 picks for. however, I don't do it until the Bucks are on the clock and I know who I'm trading for.

Joe Young is a "pending free agent" and untradeable until his team option is exercised one way or the other.

As for Dellavedova? He's got 2 more years fully guaranteed at $9.6m. I'd want a lot more than just trading up from 23 to 17 for his contract.


Agree 100%. No Habla espanol on absorbing 9.6 M for a player who is unlikely to play or be one of the main contributors in the rotation. If were talking Jabari Parker sign and trade or one of the assets like Brogdon to absorb Delly, they would be speaking our language.

I think he plays on the second unit with CoJo. I want 3 point guards and moving up to 17 lets me draft a wing who I can bring along slowly. moving from Joe to Delly is a win now move.

but I go into the evening trusting Pritchard.
