Would trading for an unremarkable Derrick White and watching him turn into a borderline all-star count?

No, because there was already n. B. A film on him.

Wasn’t really young and he was already solid from what I saw when the trade was announced.

Moving up ten spots shouldn’t cost them unprotected firsts. It’s also been a while since they’ve got production from the draft, you can’t be successful longterm that way.

Silver is trying to steal two nights of TV but the second round is really gonna be just for diehards. No big names left.

I will be surprised if all 3 are gone but by the same token. What if they are available? And we still don't pick them. :wink:

Yeah, that’d be weird. I forgot Newell is still on the board.

People barely watch it anyway. No one, but diehards as you said, even cares!! When my echo said today and tomorrow, I chalked it to a mistake… Alexa gets game days wrong all the time. Nope, NBA being dumb. Thanks. FFS

Nah, this is better. I'm all set with staying up until 2 in the morning to watch late 2nd round picks lol.

The 2nd round was way too rushed when it was all in 1 night too..

White def wasn’t unremarkable, they gave up a decent package for him and he was putting up 15 a game. How many years has it been since the Pritchard draft?
