Isles, your math is as bad as holfresh's.

Why?

They traded next years 2nd rounder. That's 1 pick.

They threw away the pick they acquired by waiving Nichols in training camp for nothing. That's another pick.

Add it up and it's 2 picks wasted.

It's still net 1 pick.
You can either use this year's pick OR DNic, not both.

I see what you're saying.

Isiah has, or will, waste another 2nd rd pick that I haven't yet ridiculed him for.

Either way, Isiah is an idiot and it's throwing away an asset for no good reason.

i dunno for sure if D Nic would have ever developed here, but 1 thing i DO know for sure is that Big Turd wasn't ever gonna do squat to help this team.
After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.

Do I really have to search for the counter European list to make my point...I didn't say that DNick won't develop in the DLeague...My point was if he doesn't then he is done in the NBA and I think I said as much...

And if he doesn't develop in Europe, he won't even have as much as he's getting now for actually being on an NBA roster.

You are in a position to call people out on their Math...thats two picks, this years and next, much as I HATE to agree with Isles...

Have you checked the exchange rate for USD to EUROS lately?...

How do you figure? We were never able to be in ownership of both picks.
We traded a single pick for a single pick, and then threw it away.
How is that 2 picks?

Hollinger was making that "finding a Unicorn" comment based a lot on what Demitris was doing in the summer league.

We don't have players who can do what he does. That is where his value is.

Should have found a spot for him.

yes you are right it's a one for one trade...but in essence, what isles is saying is that Isiah traded this year's pick or a guy who had a long shot at making the team...He didn't make the team this year so it is a wasted pick essentially...Isiah thought he was outsmarting the basketball world again by getting a player who isn't quite ready yet who will be willing to go to Europe for a year...

I think your all missing the fact that NIchols, when he is done with D-League 'he gets to play along side Lebron'. Would you go to Europe if you' had that chance? Of course not!
