It seems pretty obvious that we’re pulling the plug on our best players in favour of securing a high pick but the motive behind this pick may not be to draft a prospect with high upside.
A few weeks back there was an interview w/ Bobby where he listed a number of assets that we could move - he very intentionally added the draft pick to that list. As much as we’re all looking forward to the excitement that comes with a high pick (I’m looking forward to it just as much as the next person), there’s a very plausible outcome that involves this pick getting traded for an all-star.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Masai/Bobby wait until lottery to see if our pick lands in the top 2, if we are anything 3 and under they will most likely put the pick on the table to net a star. How would you feel about this? Under what circumstances does it make sense to keep/trade this pick?
Fate of our upcoming draft pick, when do you consider trading it?

Really depends on what the return is, but I wouldn’t consider the draft pick untouchable.

Far too early to think about this considering we won't know where it'll end up. We're in a position where we need to upgrade the overall talent on this team big time so I doubt it gets traded unless a big talent falls in our lap (doubtful).

We're winning the lottery and drafting Cade.

When a team offers a pick/prospect to move up 2 spots and we can still get the guy we want

We're going to have our Tim Duncan moment and draft our future star who'll help us win multiple championships. Masai is going to trade up and steal Evan Mobley. Just wait and see!
