Official Draft Thread 3: Picks #4 and #12

[The Effect]

For all those saying "something else has to be coming"............HOW???

What else can we do at this point?

Honestly i dont want anything else to happen because if something "big" happens, it likely gonna include Vuc or Oladipo and ill be breaking **** if that happens!

[Magic_Johnny12]

I could certainly see Tobes on his way out actually fills a need for Cleveland.

#4 + #12 + Tobes for #1 + Jack

Irving
Nik Stauskas (#12)
Harris
Thompson
Embiid (#4)

Still very young and promising.

Jameer/Jack
Dipo/Fournier
Parker/Harkless
Oquinn/Nicholson
Vuc

I don't know just trying to justify this trade!!!!

[flying_mollusk]

Yeah, dont think people should necessarily poo poo on Fournier. He is just 21.

[NickAnderson]

For everyone saying we could haven't gotten a better deal, knowing Rob don't you think we would have done them if they were actually on the table?

[UCFJayBird]

There's a lot that could be in the pipeline. We could be taking on a few other players for teams trying to salary dump. We could be positioning to make a run at someone. Maybe we're going to try and trade up and a team didn't want Afflalo, but said "if you can get Fournier from Denver we'll do it".

Or maybe Henny just really likes Fournier's skill. We'll see.

This is another year of tank IMO. I think the Magic are about to make a deal to absorb a ton of Cap, prob with the Lakers.

[Magic_Johnny12]

First Davis for nothing
Now Affalo for cents of the dollar

What's next!!!!!

[Driguez]

Ah.... I already see people calling for Hennigans head tonight.... I trust him, he has shown us he has an eye for talent.

Right now I'm wondering how this impacts the draft. Is the plan now to move Dipo to SG and take Smart/Exum or keep him there and take Vonleh?

Good thing the USA-Ger game can keep my mind of all this speculating for an hour or 2

[KillMonger]

Yep we don't know what deals were on the table..... Do you really think henny wouldn't take the best deal?

Remember when we traded Redick for a guy who sat on the bench that no one knew named Tobias Harris? Lets give it some time before we act like the sky is falling.

Lol davis IS nothing

[IGotDaMagicInMe]

we drafted nicholson one spot ahead of fournier in the draft, i wonder how close we were to taking fournier instead?

[ezzzp]

Well nobody really knew Tobias' potential before the trade....so perhaps Henningan feels he has something.

@mySynergySports In limited minutes the 20th pick in the 2012 draft 20 year old Evan Fournier ranked as the 43rd most efficient scorer

possesses ideal physical attributes for a NBA wing at 6-7 with a strong frame, and has the ability to create his own shot very effectively thanks to his excellent size, strength, and ball-handling skills. Despite his height, he's able to get very low with his dribble, showing terrific footwork and body control driving into the lane, often using crafty change of speed moves, spins and hesitations.

Patient and mature with his drives, he reads the secondary line of defense extremely well, frequently making intelligent passes off the dribble to cutting teammates as help-side defenders rotate towards him.

Fournier is capable of playing above the rim, even if he doesn't always feel compelled to, as he finishes extremely well around the basket, converting 63% of his attempts around the rim on the season according to Synergy Sports Technology, and a very efficient 55% of his 2-pointers overall.

I believe the plan is to find our starting point guard tonight and move dipo to 2 with Evan coming off the bench in a manu type role.

[Reverse_Angle]

LOL, some of you should calm down. Henny did not make a mistake as far as acquiring assets go so far, let's give him the benefit of the doubt. He knows what he is doing, and on the other hand, we know ****.

[Big A All Day]

Please let there be more to this deal that just hasn't leaked yet.

[Rick Rolled]

Doron Lamb for a top 59 protected pick?

[InFlames]

People on twitter were saying we really liked Fournier.

[woosah]

This is why i don't waste time trying to figure out what Orlando FO will do because Rob has gone left on us since he has been here!! No one knows, so just hold tight and let the chips fall. I may need some henny to deal with this today.
