Yeah...that was expected. I had dreams about sending a FRP to get Maxey but that was unlikely.

Heh, for sure not. You might lose me to grad school and me getting laid off due to my company outsourcing my department, though :)

He is on a non-guranteed deal. He will play the Hill role. Maybe they can get a 2nd in the offseason.

Not playing for two months didn’t help his value.

I'm fine to trade 17 of those picks for Cade.

Was just about to post this. Big consolidation move has to happen in the next year. And drafting a boatload of Euros in the 2nd round. At this point, I don’t even really see how we can take any more 2nds.

Agreed. Presti has done a good job spacing them out but this years draft night will be interesting.

Half of those 2nds are out in 2026/27 when we'll be in the playoffs and trying to trade them for our own George Hills, Fourniers, etc. Presti's done a pretty good job of spreading these out across the next 7 years so far.

OKC saved some money and got four 2nds in the last two weeks...not funny but that's ok.

Any potential for Tony Bradley?

Sixers fans liked him.

Wonder if Austin Rivers ever actually plays a game here. Feels like he might just stay on the shelf like Ariza if he isn't bought out.
