I had Felder in my wants so I might be bias in saying that even though it was an overpay, the Cavaliers made out like bandits.
Want: Trae Young, Michael Porter Jr., DeAndre Ayton, Jaren Jackson Jr, Marvin Bagley III, Mohamad Bamba, Shai Gilgeous- Alexander, Elie Okobo, Jevon Carter

I like his game, plain and simple. So of course I think he's a steal. Now explain why I wouldn't be disappointed.

CLippers quietly had a good draft. Brice Johnson and Chieck Diallo should give them a big boost on the boards and their overall athleticism going forward.

I still don't understand why they traded away JJ Reddick

I have no idea what you are talking about so I'm moving on. But please keep on spewing gobbity goop.

Gobbity goop? You are comparing having Val and Poetl to having Aldridge and Bosh, yet that is far from the situation.

1. You do not know if Poetl is a sure thing.
2. Bosh and Albridge can play meaningful minutes together.
3. Val and Poetl cannot play meaningful minutes together.


I was talking about drafting BPA regardless of need.

I guess we will find out if they can play together, that's if one of them isn't traded before the season starts.
If they prove they can't be on the floor together, then he can come off the bench. Teams in the final 4 this year were extremely deep this year and had talented benches.

If they can't find a way to make it work with Poeltl on the team, then you have a more valuable asset to trade to upgrade at your position of need.

well you aren't wrong about Kemba

It would be fun to be able to plug in different scenarios in the past to see how things would have turned out:

Drafting Iggy over Araujo?
Drafting Aldridge over Bargs?
Going into medicine instead of engineering?
Marrying that girl I dated in university instead of my wife? Edit* Just kidding, love you snookums!
