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

[Swagnificent]

i like fultz but i can't get pass the fact his team won 9 games in college

He's a bust dude. Its gonna be really funny to see all the guys stanning him right now doing backflips pretending they never really fukked wit him when he's nothing more than Eric Gordon 2.0.

We don't know what the 2019 protections

It could be 2019 too 5 protected
2020 top 3 protected
2021 unprotected

I wouldn't even give up the lakers pick to move up for fultz without protections

The Lakers have no reason to tank next season. If Ball gets there and makes a big impact, they could get up to 35 wins or so. That pick might not be too great unless it jumps into the top three.

 

[Regular_P]

ok, unless you offering Lebron, KD, or Kwahi, they aren't trading Davis. don't care if you offering 10 future 1st rd picks

Wolves did the same thing with KG.

It's about fit though and the problem is the next two drafts are light on PGs while Fultz represents one of the best PG prospects to come a long in a minute, if you stop and look around the league there's a talent gap that seemed to happen out of nowhere for PGs. The best under 24 year old PG is probably Dennis Schroder right now, it seems like PGs take a long time to develop now when they used to just hit the league running.

This stops them from overpaying Jrue Holiday, and probably prevents them from throwing a max deal at Lowry, instead they can take a swing at maybe getting Otto Porter or KCP.

First of all, he's not a PG. He's an undersized SG who likes to dominate the ball. And second of all, he's in the same fukkin draft as Lonzo Ball. A true PG.

Man this Markelle Fultz delusion is something else.

Jayson Tatum and Lonzo Ball are the 2 best players in this draft. PERIOD.

Those green b*stards getting Jimmy Butler

Hate to break it to you breh but it is...at least basketball wise. Personality and being the face it's probably Embiid.

You're the homie breh but Ben has a lot to show to prove he's even gonna be as good as Embiid was his rookie year.

Your takes are such garbage

If he's an undersized SG how is that a bad thing for a team that has a playmaker like Ben Simmons?

Wolves did the same thing with KG.

KG was in his 30's with only one year left on his contract when the Wolves traded him. AD is 24 with at least 3 years left on his deal.

Maybe in a few years it could become a possibility, but as of now trading for him is a pipedream

 

[Alexander The Great]

Wolves did the same thing with KG.

P....my man, are you talking about when they traded 31 year old KG bruh?

 

[Kang Deezy]

Slightly worse.

 

[<<TheStandard>>]

This is way too much. I'm cool with the #3 pick and the Lakers pick but the Kings pick tips the scales.


I don't like the idea of going all in on Fultz. Draft picks for the most part are crapshoots. The process was about stacking the deck to give you more opportunities to find the guy. This is eliminates opportunities for a guy who may or may not be good.

Hinkie has to be rolling over in his grave today.

If Fultz is that good (I've never seen him play as I don't watch college ball), all this is irrelevant but I don't like it just from a strategic point of view.

Disregard everything I said above.....it's just 1 of the Kings/Lakers picks....

 

[SchoolboyC]

So we're not getting both the Lakers & Kings pick. We're getting the 2018 Lakers pick protected, and if it doesn't convey then they get the 2019 Kings pick.

Ainge better have a master plan behind this
