GS paid $3.5M for #38, and Clippers bought #s 39 & 48. Have a feeling that $3.5M might be the most you can pay for a pick, but I'm not sure of this.

Had read a story about us maybe combining our #2s to move up further in the 2nd Round.


Anyone with ideas of who might have been picked before #38 (were any earlier picks sold?) who we might have wanted?

Bacon went at #40, and we had worked him out...seems like we could have picked him up for the right amount if we had wanted him.

Just throwing this out...

EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

Would have loved the Knicks to buy Bell for the $3.5MM. Not sure why we didn't- Phil's phone ran out of juice?
The new new core: Randle, RJ, IQ. Maybe Mitch. Future pick. Future trade. Future FA.

It's not the most you can spend on a pick. It's the most you can use for cash considerations over the course of a season. If you use $1M in a trade that would mean the team only has $2.5M left to spend the rest of the year.

Now the joy of my world is in Zion How beautiful if nothing more Than to wait at Zion's door I've never been in love like this before Now let me pray to keep you from The perils that will surely come

Isn't that the same as the most you can spend On a pick?
