The trade winds are a'blowin'...

Tank for a top 2 pick folks. Screw top 5. We have only had 4 x top 3 picks in the history of the team. Darrell the doctor Griffith, Dominique Wilkins who we were forced to trade, Deron "ShouldpickedPiss" Williams, Enes Mic Drop Kancer

Then we had a top 5 pick that ended up as Dead Ex.

Thats it folks. Thats all our draft history has to show. I want a top pick. #1. The first choice once before quit following the team and the league altogether. Sheesh. Dont care if it is a weak draft... we deserve a #1 pick at least once in our first 50 years.
 
I want to see George, Agbaji, Fonteccio, Lauri, and Walker lineup. Those are about the only guys on the team I care to keep along with maybe our other rookies. Not that I would be opposed to trading some of those guys in the right deal.

You cannot tank for higher than top 5 pick. Having the worst record in the league guarantees #5 pick, but nothing better. Thats what the Pistons got last year despite losing 3 more games than any other team.

You could say that tank for the best lotto odds, but then its bottom 3 record you are aiming at. And even #4 has 90% of the chance that the 3 worst teams have (12.5% vs 14% of the total tickets).
 
I think Ochai should not be traded. His trade value is likely not very high, and I see progress in his game, especially in the decissionmaking and finishing on the inside. He just looks like a guy who can turn into a valuable modern NBA player but isnt that yet. Not a star, but a solid 3&D who scores 12-15 a night on high efficiency, is a menace on defense and who you cannot leave alone on the perimeter.

I think if you trade Ochai now, you have done the hard work and sell low just before the price starts going up.
 
Not so sure they value this draft that much, i'd say the team they put up toghether simply sucks

It won’t work as only 1 can facilitate and he’s just a 19 yo rookie.

Simone and Lauri both do in international play. We should push the guys to do more. Most teams run one actual facilitator anyways. Let the rookie do more. Lauri draws quite a crowd anyways, that just swinging the ball away from him finds openings.

Besides like I said I don't care about the rest of the players so why do much with them. If this fails, fine we're in the same boat we are in now. We need a trade yesterday but sadly it will have to wait. We really needed to balance the roster a bit in the off season but obviously didn't.

Simone did a bit but not sure about Lauri. He don’t really pass / make plays for others in fact he have plenty of games with 0 assist. He pass in traffic. He is like a receiver who takes it to the end zone. If he can somehow develop this skill set it will help reduce the load from our guards and make him an overall better player.
