What's funny is I also wanted to pair Love and Curry. Perfect match. But giving up 2 picks in the top 40 was tough to swallow.

Actually, now that mello has been picked at #8, I can also add that I saw him as the natural choice at #7, but I just don't like him much and didn't want to have to pick him.

Putting this pick on the block. Looking for a similar deal that Curry went for. Email me if you're interested (craig at mediafire dot ca). If not, I'll pick in a few hours. Sorry for the hold up.

Looks like we were both looking at the same 2 people.

I think top heavy works in this league. Last year I traded to pair Love with Westbrook, but injuries kept me down. Still made the playoffs with 5th best regular season record. I'm drafting #11 this year and I don't have a good feeling about continuing my playoffs streak (5 seasons in row - every season since I joined the league).

There is a fair question as to how Love does do in Cleveland.

I wanna drop from 13 to anywhere between 14-20. I want an upgrade immediately though, not in the later rounds.

You mean once the draft has officially started or now?
"Thibs called back and wanted more picks," said Jorge Sedano. "And Pat Riley, literally, I was told, called him a mother-bleeper and hung up the phone."

this should serve as an example
the draft was postponed because two players were traveling and / or had internet problems
this is Bs
the draft was not postponed to make trades or to sell to the highest bidder
I dont remember floppy having problems or even sabonis
what a joke
