Yeah sometimes I just don't understand why people want to trade good/solid young players for picks, especially picks as low as 14.

Here are the #14 picks since 2000:

2000 - Mateen Cleaves
2001 - Troy Murphy
2002 - Fred Jones
2003 - Luke Ridnour
2004 - Kris Humphries
2005 - Rashad McCants
2006 - Ronnie Brewer
2007 - Al Thornton
2008 - Anthony Randolph
2009 - Earl Clark
2010 - Patrick Patterson
2011 - Marcus Morris
2012 - John Henson
2013 - Kelly Olynyk
2014 - T.J. Warren
2015 - Cameron Payne
2016 - Denzel Valentine
2017 - Bam Adebayo

I think what intrigues people about picks is the "mystery" of potentially drafting the next Kawhi Leonardo or Giannis Antetokounmpo... But in reality picking a guy like Sabonis is almost the best case scenario in that range.

Picking a guy like Domas at number 14 would be the steal of the draft.

Only due to his wingspan Domas went at #11. Certain Poeltl was picked at #9. The latest news - Domas is working on his right hand, and over all is getting BETTER.

Of course, my response was late, but Domas is a last guy you want to let go. In the last three years he had to adapt his game to the teams, on which he played, and he did it easily. Next season will be his second in Indiana, let's get ready for some serious fun.

Good for us. 11 is my lucky number


Let's indeed get ready for some serious fun

Oh, that is good news. His one-handedness really bothered me last season.
