You did talk me off the ledge and you were right. Props.
<< Casual fan.
I think the 2nd round picks are the gem of the trade.
I predicted the same more than a year ago.. maybe I'll dig it up. Was in the 2012 draft thread, somehwere, lol.
Is that you in your avatar?
If not - what is "It"?
I'd much rather have a team that is borderline competitive than a team that won't make the playoffs and stink all season.
Amen, brother. Don't give up hope just yet, though. There's always a chance our FO could trade away our future for some mediocre vets and scrape our way into the playoffs. After watching pop coach in the finals this year, I'm pretty sure we could knock off the spurs next year as the 8th seed. Or the Thunder or whoever the best team is in the west. Durant, schmurant. Playoffs or bust!!!
Hey bro, I'm Hotttnickkk, nice to meet you.
So what's your take on these trades/moves today? Do you reckon we're on the right track????
Depends on the protection of next years pick. If it's true that the 2014 is unprotected, then I'm stoked. If the 2017 is also unprotected, I'll be stunned in amazement. Otherwise, if the 2014 pick is top 3 protected or something, I'm afraid I'll have to hold on to my bitterness over not rebuilding during the lockout year.
As for now, I have to admit I'm quite enjoying the irony that Utah just pulled a tank move in a trade with the team that so many fans have trashed for being tankers. Yep, the ironing is delicious.![]()
