Hope You Win The Lotto 

Post#1 » by DmoneyH3 » Tue May 19, 2009 2:37 am

Either you or the Kings. Would hate to see OKC or MEM win anything. The Clips would just ruin that player. I'd like to see something good happen to you guys.
best of luck 8-)

Don't take this the wrong way, but I hope you guys don't win the lottery. I think you guys would be better served ending up in the 2-6 range where you can grab either Rubio or Harden. I think both of those guys fit what you need more than Griffin does.

Why?

So, we could trade Griffin for Hansbrough?

Please, I'm just hoping we don't get it. Let a team that knows how to use their picks get it.

I actually think winning the lotto is better than #2. Blake is a young Malone, and would allow you to package Foye/Love for a legit backcourt player.

I'm thinking someone's still miffed that the new RealGM screenname they grabbed didn't work out so well on the wolves boards?

I think you have an evil motive in mind. You want Blake Griffin on us or the Kings because we're the two teams that would consider trading him to you?

Who has a back court player that good that they would be willing to part with to get Love and Foye? It would have to bet a vet for it to make sense for them and that wouldn't make sense for us...however maybe in a year or 2...not a bad idea. I'd still hold on to all 3 of Jefferson/Love/Griffin for now, though since Jefferson won't be ready to go right away this fall anyway with his injury. I've always been a proponent of drafting Griffin and keeping him. I want soooooooooooooooooo badly to get a top 2 pick!! It could really break us out of our lottery cycle....

I just hope we land the #2 pick, draft Rubio and move on. Even with a new fo I'd be worried about what they'd do with the #1 pick. I don't think I could handle another draft night trade.

Seattle doesn't have Wolves, it'd have to be Seattle Pike Place Fish Market or whatever else they're known for.

LaMarcus Aldridge respectfully declines the idea of trading for Blake Griffin :wink: :lol:
