No more trading no. 1 picks unless it puts you further into contention!!!!!
Lowrey I doubt would have pushed us that far.
I will ... one day ... maybe
Mozgov goes for 2 but we could not give up one for a real game changer?
Those picks for Mozgov won't be lottery, but lets not talk about what we don't have, which was other teams picks obtained via trade!
I think you trade future no. 1's when your contending, not when your in the shytter because if Lowrey gets injured and the team sinks, that pick has to be protected. Maybe Toronto said NO to protection?
We just don't know.
When a player elevates the team it should result in that pick DROPPING in value. When You get an EDDY, or Bargs and the trade does not your losing on both ends!!! We can't afford to trade no. 1's anymore, not until we fill the cupboard up.
I know we'd all rather have Lowrey NOW then a pick in three years but the fact might be this could take a while and instant gradification cannot rule, thus I prefer Phil is patient even if to the distain of fans who want it NOW!!!!!!!!
In fact, when reading some of the comments I am convinced of it.
We have the romantic notion that every Dleaguer showing promise should be a knick regardless of fit. Same for some trade proposals!
For now, lets see if Detroit can throw us a 2nd rounder for Priggy!
