Knick Fan here, thanks for the feedback.

IMO, Doncic is the only prospect worth trading up for. Maybe Jackson too, but I'm not as sold on him. There's really no upside to trading up for #9 vs. just keeping both our picks.

12 and 13 for 9 is laughable

and it looks like Atlanta might want to include Shroder in trading up...

How do you feel about that?


Absolutely not to Schroder.
Plus, why would I want to go to the NBA? Duke players suck in the pros.

I've been thinking about a DJ opt-in & trade deal to Washington for the 15th, Marcin, and perhaps Markief for a while now

Haha Lol.

Still got a chance to get Doncic. Sacramento don't want to give up that pick. But Jerry West knows exactly what he's doing and he will find a superstar or two superstars with those picks. Will be fun to see who yall draft.

Hey MKW thanks for this-----really intrigued by the Jordan trade for Gortat and Oubre. Makes the Knox pick unnecessary; now I think it'll be Walker and Williams. Trade won't happen until the new league year starts but can be agreed upon before.
Again thanks...

Ha, I thought the draft was on Friday and had the whole day planned around watching the draft, and instead it's today and I'm not gonna be able to watch it at all cause I'll be working. Currently debating between leaving my phone home, not looking at any news and watching it the next day, or realising I'm gonna be following it as much as I can and not getting any work done :noway:
