Oh. . . I forgot to mention in the post about the trade. I’m kicking in some cash and a mascot name as well. I’m pretty sure that Kangaroo ****ers is available. . . so I’ll go with that one.

Nice doing business with you.

[Coach Ellis]

@Rubashov

You’re back on the clock followed by two picks from @Eminence

 

[Rubashov]

With the 34th pick I take Hall of Famer Moses Malone.

 

[Eminence]

With pick #35 one of the most underappreciated players in NBA history:

Spectacular defender/passer and a good enough scorer to keep anyone honest, excited to have Bill Walton as my 3rd star with Curry/West.

 

[Coach Ellis]

With the 34th pick I take Hall of Famer Moses Malone.

Great pick. He was my backup option if you’d decided to keep Ewing. I just feel like Patrick Ewing is a better fit for my team.

Love Moses Malone. One of the greatest tragedies in Jazz history is trading his rights back to the NBA.
