What's new

Following potential 2014 draftees

I don't know who Kasey Hill is, but Burke is way better than Harrison at this point. Harrison might be better a few years down the road, but I don't think he will ever be better in the halfcourt

Obviously, I like me some Trey Burke!

I like Trey Burke too, but if after this year he's not as good as advertised, isn't it comforting to know that we'll have the likes of Aaron Harrison and Kasey Hill that we can grab with the GSW pick!!!
 
I agree with this unless we have more than 8 wins by new years. I don't want a full rebuild either but if we have to trade one of the core in order to secure a top pick that's what we should do. Would you trade Favors for Jabari and another pick? I would.

No one, and I mean NO ONE would trade Jabari for Favors.

LOL... name me 1 team that would do that trade with us.

Hows about a team that has no shot at him anyway. If we had to trade away favors to secure last place it would be effectively(though not literally) trading Favors for Jabari or Wiggins or Randle or Exum plus whatever they were willing to give us in that trade.

hehey, I see what you're saying now. If you go back and read your post, you'll see why it was easy to misunderstand.

Why would we need to trade away Favors to secure last place? We're already on pace to get the last place without losing an asset.

Go back and watch the GSW Tankers when the sunk low enough to grab Harrison Barnes - they didn't have to trade away nobody.

the idea was to secure another asset while solidifying getting Jabari.

imagine

Burke
Hayward
Parker
Gordon
kanter

or

Burke
Hayward
Parker
kanter
embiid

the idea of trading favors away for another top 10

Yeah, but, again, why would another team trade away the chance to grab "Embiid, the next Hakeem" for Favors?

Makes no sense for THEM to trade away a top #7 pick in this draft for Favors.

Because Favors is more of a proven commodity and further along in his development than Embiid. Lower risk, and maybe a franchise would prefer to win sooner rather than later (Embiid is a project).
