How you gonna shot if you don't get the ball?

Right now we could have David Lee(6X11 starting at 9) Jordan Hill Hassan Whiteside Jerome Jordan all of our picks + 15 mm in cap space. Instead we have Jerome Jordan and 34mm in cap space

In this scenario we have built the foundation of a very strong frontline for years to come under our control and destiny

The other scenario is we have Jordan and 34mm

We fcd up. Wrong coach wrong system wrong mentality from the team.

Briggs- Hey- we'd also have Jefferies, and lets say we missed out on Lebron or another big name this off season.

We could really tank it this year, next - still be able to go into a full, real rebuilding vs. the speed dating version we tried.

Land a top 5 pick, and we could be on our way.

Instead, we miss out on Lebron, I really think its 5 years before things can be turned around again on this franchise.

who knows? Maybe we get the next Michael Beasley, OJ Mayo, Kevin Love, Greg Oden, Michael Conley, Jeff Green, Bargnani, Adam Morrison, Tyrus Thomas, Sheldon Williams... all top 5 picks.

I'm sorry, but we didnt trade these picks for Marbury and Curry. We traded them because there is a legit chance to sign franchise caliber talent, and all star talent after that. If you have that chance you take it.

The only time this worked for us is when we got Earl the Pearl, ever since then we've been bridesmaids. I still lament that we never develop our own and from the looks of it we never will.

It seems with Douglas, Fields, Rautins that Walsh is looking for high work ethic skilled players that can fill out the bottom part of the rotation.
