I was wondering why everyone was hyping this. Ya'll really didn't know EG was selling this? C'Mon people, this has been a running theme.

Wow. Stokes just got dealt for a future 2nd rounder.

Clarkson isn't European, so it's pretty safe to say the pick isn't for us.

EG is a CLUELESS GM. He could have traded our 2nd rounder for Jackson.


Wow, great trade by Philly, epic fail by EG. Combine this and getting nothing for Satoransky... yikes

And we'll overpay to keep Gortat, to make up for the lack of a pick. And let Ariza go to the Heat since we can't afford to keep him. This front office depresses me.

TED is the problem. He only cares about money. He's a cheap owner. There is no justification for selling 2nd rounders.

I must say these pick sales are getting old as a fan. Ticked off that I stayed up for it if the Wiz are doing well financially I'll be even more ticked.

EG sold the pick figuring if he can't have picks to draft busts, Ted won't notice.

Pierre Jackson on this team would have won 5 more games by simply replacing Fart (AKA Maynor) last year. EG is a moron. Worst GM in the NBA.

What is the source of the rumor?

Is this a done deal?

This guarantees one of the later picks will turn into a solid player.
