Draft day trade

What do you guys think about this trade idea? Trade Cole Aldrich and Nate robinson and the 24th pick to the Knicks who need a center and then we draft one of the Morris Twins. Markieef is bigger and Marcus is more of a tweener but either could play power forward and some small forward for us, and we could resign Mohammed. We really dont need cole since we traded for perk and we also have nick collison too.

I'm not to huge on trading up on in this draft.

But I also don’t know much, about either if these kats. I’ll check draft express. I do think that cole with a year of development plus and,expiring (which could be huge with s hard cap looming) plus a pick in what’s considered the best part of this year’s draft would be too much for anyone but williams.

How the hell did that happen? I am Trailblazer fan to the core but I love me some OKC THunder!!! Must be the Hometown pride I feel.

I'm not really interested in the Morris twins.

My interest in Motiejunas is also waning. There is really no one around 17 that would justify trading down.

The tooth fairy must have a thing for Cole Aldrich.
His tooth keeps disappearing and reappearing.

No

Neither Morrii is worth trading up for.

The only 2 guys they should even think of trading up for(for the Thunder) are Hamilton and Burks.

Mirotic is the guy they are likely targeting and seems like the best pick. He’s a lottery talent that is only slotted in the mid-20’s b/c of his contract situation. He can’t come over for at least 2 years but he’s ready to play in the NBA right now.

Honeycutt is another guy that might be taken. UCLA players don’t ever seem like they’d translate to the NBA well, but other than Josh Shipp all of Howland’s NBA guys are playing well and most are playing above what people expected from them. His grind it out system seems to de-value players.
 
Similarly Kansas’ system seems to cause players to be over-valued. Other than Chalmers have any of Self’s guys produced?

Singler is the other guy that always seems to be linked to OKC but not a fan. He doesn’t have one great skill that he brings and really he’s more of a poor man’s Jeff Green. Green was good in a lot of areas but not great at anything, Singler seems to be solid in a lot of areas but not even good at any one thing. He also lacks Green’s athleticism.

Take Mirotic in the 1st, maybe buy a 2nd rounder and take Jimmy Butler or DeAndre Liggins or someone like that.
