I don't get it either. Saving $$$? It's funny, this day started so well, and now I hate everything they're doing lol.

The good news? We get the 1st pick in the 2nd round, who is the biggest dropper?

I now get this deal. #31 is the first pick of the second round. It gives you the opportunity to give the pick dirt cheap salaries in exchange for guaranteeing those salaries (look at Gafford's contract as an example)

Sharp is really unique at his size. 270 pound guy with all that agility who can rebound, pass, set picks. Still a baby, too, the guys getting stronger
Tre Johnson is the future of the Wizards.

Well, his stats are pretty bad, tbh. Jrue he ain't.
Yeah but if we didn't like anyone at 22 that we can't get at 31 why not save the money and take them further back. I think it better than just trading back pick for pick we need bodies at PG.

I'll buy that - and it's possible they got Aaron to include him in the Dinwiddie trade package. Maybe. It's still very possible they go PG at 31.

If Turd sells the pick (something he's forced our GMs to do in the past), I will be LIVID.

I thought the Bucks had the #31 pick? How do we get it?

I don't really get the acquisition of Holiday. He certainly hasn't lit it up in the league. Anyway I don't much like Jackson for us, so let's see how this turns out.

Butler, McBride, Cooper, Thomas, Sharpe, Springer, Dosunmu, Wieskamp -- all still there. Bunch more good players as well.

Nothing new, but fun to see it summarized this way:

Traded the 22nd, Gill, and Caleb Homesly for the 31st and Holiday.

The Bucks traded 31 to Indiana for 54, 60, and a future 2nd. Then we traded 22 to Indiana for Aaron Holiday and 31.

I feel like there's going to be a really good player at 31. Will be interesting to see who we take.

Gill went in this deal?

Everything depends on who we get at 31 as to whether we like this deal. Should be several good choices available.

I wonder if Wiggins regrets leaving early. Imo, you should only leave early if you're going to be a 1st round pick.

Several good players to choose from. I'm guessing they pick Butler - hoping for Cooper. Maybe another ex-Gonzaga player - Petrusev.

Take a chill pill. Trading the 22nd is debatable at this point until we know who the pick will be, but today as been a boon. Learn how to enjoy the moment for two seconds.

Obvious pick if we hadn't taken Holiday, football player who also played PG

Depending upon who they keep, Gill wasn't going to see the light of day with the players they have now on the roster. Four pgs left so one of them has to be there so hopefully they'll take one of them.

Cam Thomas is a good pick for the Nets...
