These picks are nice and all but they become and redundant and lose value. OKC will more than likely tank or be a borderline playoff team. OKC has like 17 first rounders in the next what 5 years ? They will definitely lose value eventually. The hope for them is they can get somebody and maybe hit on a few of them lottery ones, imo.

He has enough picks to draft an entire additional team. Maybe Seattle will get their team back after all?

And I think the picks will keep their value enough to still be solid assets. It is when you have too many at the time they need to be used in a draft that the value really starts to drop.

I dunno what Danny's been doing this entire time, tbh. Or wait, I might know, he's looking for another 6'6 center to add to our squad.

We can't make a move until the Hayward thing is resolved. I hope at least we're talking to some of these FA prospects. Most won't wait though.

Supposedly Crowder wanted more years and the Heat didn't want to do that in order to preserve cap space.

Not necessarily. Heat are still about $14M below the tax after this signing. They have Bird Rights on Crowder so they can easily give him a bloated one-year deal. Jae probably looking for a longer-term deal first.

Surprised that Denver let Grant go and downgraded to Green. I'd imagine they are looking into give MPJ more of Grant's minutes. Are they going to let Milsap walk as well. That's a lot of their veteran core.

Favors resigned, already.

I'd say Baynes, Millsap and Jae.
I'd take Jae out of that group. Millsap is a good player but he's what 35?

They didn't let Grant go. Grant reportedly wanted out, looking for elevated role on offense. He won't find that in Denver. They can re-sign Millsap after all their other business is done.

Danny can't both trade his **** big guys for nothing, pick the scrap heaps free agents AND lose hayward.

So I don't believe that he will.

Paul Millsap I think would be a nice vet PF but in this NBA he will probably get 3 years and $42 million

Still lots of money available. Not a lot of decent players left.
