Buzzard Posted June 6, 2019 Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 2 minutes ago, Lurker said: I love this deal. I'd value most of the centers in this draft around #17 anyway or maybe even a little lower. Ainge is going to start having nightmares envisioning a Hawk that comes in and swoops up his players. We now pick ahead of him at 8 and 10, then again at 17.

Agree, Travis is pretty amazing. A big roster overhaul already even before this draft. Going to be fun on the 20th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators PSSSHHHRRR87 Posted June 7, 2019 Moderators Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 Sweet deal. Three first rounders and brought in Crabbe... I know he won't be apart of our long term plans, but he is a shooter and interesting. Dumping Prince is icing on the cake! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Sothron Posted June 7, 2019 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 I'm not thrilled with this trade. Getting a bum in Crabbe to give up a decent young wing player isn't worth the 17th pick and what will be a protected 2020 pick. Unless we're turning 3 first rounders into a superstar I don't see the return. We not only gave up on Prince but now we're stuck with a terrible contract with a bad player.

Brooklyn got the better player out of the deal. But really we wanted draft picks, and they wanted cap space, so that's really the crux of the deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea but you are saving money because 3+d players is a premium in the league the asking price is going to skyrocket. There is no guarantee that Crabb IS going to be on the starting router.

It must be part of a greater plan. I can't see us bringing in three 1st round rookies. It's hard enough to develop 2 rookies, much less three.

Bitadze. Fernando, Clarke, Gafford, Washington, Bol Bol, and Kabengele have all been projected at one time or another to be available at 17. Schlenk thinks this is a deep draft. Let him do some work before thinking all is lost because Prince is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNorthCydeRises Posted June 7, 2019 Report Share Posted June 7, 2019 We now have 6 draft picks? ( 3 in the 1st . . 3 in the 2nd ) I'll have to say that's some impressive draft capital to dangle in front of teams. I don't think I've ever seen a team hold 6 draft picks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TP was on the trade block all year, it was only a matter of time. If Schlenk wasn't offering him an extension then you get value in lieu of letting him leave for free. We took in Jamal Crawford's $16 mil contract and waived for a 1st that ended up being pick #30 which was Spellman. It's not about Crabbe the on court player but rather Crabbe the expiring contract next offseason, to go along with Baze and Plum. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just had a season with 3 rookies on the roster in the first round. I can't believe we're going to do another season with 3 more. I have to think we have a trade lined up. I just pray it isn't this crazy Blake Griffin nonsense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we can rehab his 3pt stroke and move his expiring at the deadline, but so far Schlenk hasn't been successful with deadline expiring contracts.
