(Edit: It's Official) 76ers and Celtics discussing trade involving the #1 pick

[lutha]

dudes aren't worth anywhere close to the #1 or even top 3 picks but they found a way to toss some white cats in....

dont be surprised if ainge keeps trading down, stockpiling picks, and drafts one lol...

Ehh I disagree breh. There would be too many young guys needing the ball (Embiid, Simmons, Fultz, Saric) and then add Lowry. They should just focus on the young guys getting their reps for another season or two. Lowry at 31 doesn't fit their timeline either.

The perfect fit in FA for the Sixers if the Fultz deal goes down is Avery Bradley. Terrific defender who's also a decent shooter.

i really wouldn't be surprised if he swaps back to 3 and than to swap back to 5/10 and 10 take Tatum and Collins

Maybe Danny Ainge is planning to take over an entire league overseas. One in which the Celtics own the draft rights to every player for every team.

 

[MurderToCassette]

Too much

Wake me up this time next Thursday

You mean using all the assets Hinkie got the Sixers? That 2018 Lakers pick is all hinkie, put some respeck on his name

Putting a team together where the pieces fit.

Hinkie never got the chance to build. You giving credit to the dude reading the directions and not the man who supplied all the materials

Hinkie's picks suggest otherwise.

Too much praise for that con man on here.

Lowry is the EXACT type of PG they need though, especially Fultz. A PG who can show them the ropes (on both ends), provide a stable veteran presence to balance out the inexperience, and control the ball only when the team needs him to and not monopolize possessions (Lowry doesn't get enough recognition for his ability to balance when to handle the ball and play off it in relation to a team's needs - only Steph is better). I don't necessarily disagree with just allowing the core to develop on their own, but a PG in the mould of Lowry would most definitely NOT stunt Fultz's growth.

This argument is more or less futile anyway since it seems as though Lowry wants to be on a contender.

Patty Mills is the perfect target for them.

So Celtics taking Jackson or Tatum this year and having two shots at Durant 2.0 Porter next year.

Too much praise for that con man on here.

He drafted a generational player, he traded Elfrid Payton for Saric, he wanted to draft Porzingis but team ownership wanted one of the 3 college players, the Colangelo's traded Nerlens for scraps, Hinkie would have got two 2020 firsts out of it.

@ You riding with the dude that shows up 3 hours late to work and tries to take credit for the 4 hour project.

 

[all3rd]

notice that a certain someone is not in the picture

Nah Dallas and the NY Knicks are drafting Dirk 2.0 and Collins.

You ain't been watching him enough to make this comparison.

One of them will take Ntilikina.
