I'm a little bummed about not having Saric. But I'm really stoked on Payton.

Too high to give up a future first to move up two spots. Probably more to this deal.

Keep in mind, those are same conditions on the pick Phily owed Orlando from Bynum deal.

Payton could EASILY be the best PG in the draft. He's a lot closer to a "pure PG" than both Exum and Smart's combo guard game. His defense also compliments our team with Aaron Gordon, I'm feelin good!.


Still wish we got Smart or Embiid though :(

Apparently Magic staff met for thre hours with Payton's college coaches.

Woj is now saying Orlando dealt a 2015 2nd instead.

Payton
Dipo
Harris
Gordon
Vuc

...we better focus on Vuc as an offensive option because no one else has a particularly great shot...

I don't even love that trade honestly. I'd rather just wait on Saric, who I'm a big believer in, than trade that pick plus a future pick for Payton. But that's just me personally. Of course we all have our guys we like. I mean hey, apparently we're really high on Payton and wanted him all along, so I'll roll with it.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.
