Afro Posted Tuesday at 09:34 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:34 PM (edited) Just for funsies, how good of a vet could you get with 4, unp 25, and unp 27? Allstar? Multi Allstar? Consider me skeptical lol ETA: just to clarify cause I see how it's confusing lol. I meant what could the Spurs get for the price that's being floated for Reesh.

I've occasionally daydreamed what kind of bounty a team with a #1 could possibly come out of a draft with if they just traded down and traded down and traded down... all for future draft picks. You would end up with 4 to 5 late first round picks (or future picks from good teams likely to be late firsts). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I wasn't talking about us. I mean that's what the Spurs are theoretically paying for Rischacher. That could get them one hell of a current player.

Hawkmoor Posted Tuesday at 09:43 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:43 PM (edited) 42 minutes ago, Sothron said: Update: We are down to basically two choices: Take Sarr and get the Wizards to move up to get him. Wizards want him badly. #1 for #2 and #26 or something like that in value. We would take Clingan at #2 or take Risacher for the below scenario. Take Risacher and either keep him or flip him to the Spurs. This would be like the old Elton Brand for Tyson Chandler trade. The Bulls back then would only do that trade if Curry was there for them at #4 in that draft. When Atlanta...sigh...passed on Gasol by flipping him for SAR the Bulls got their guy and made the trade. If the Hawks had taken Curry or traded it to someone else that took Curry...the Bulls don't do the deal. So in this case if Clingan is there at 4 the Spurs take him and we swap guys plus pick up our 2025 and 2027 firsts. In that scenario we turn Risacher into Clingan and our 2025 and 2027 unprotected firsts back. Spurs still have the pick swap in 2026. If Clingan is gone...we just keep Risacher. This seems to be the current thinking of the FO. Again, this can change. Teams are upping their interest in #1, DJM, Capela and Hunter. I'm hearing teams are making pitches for AJ and Kobe as well. Houston is the swing draft choice. I wouldn't rule out a separate trade to #3 if this scenario above happens just to get Clingan and give #4 to Houston so they can take Reed. I promise this is not directed at you for posting this. What I'm gonna say is after all that convolution and gymnastics, it FEELS like the Hawks are gonna Hawk and the Spurs are gonna come away with yet another NBA Championship if you deal with them like that. Keep it simple. Edited Tuesday at 09:45 PM by Hawkmoor 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators AHF Posted Tuesday at 09:49 PM Author Moderators Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:49 PM 15 minutes ago, JeffS17 said: It's more like the Spurs have to believe the talent difference between Risacher and whoever they would select at 4 (Clingan, Shephard, Buzelis, Castle?) is worth two first rounders. Feels like absolutely unprecedented value being applied to a guy that has not stepped on an NBA court. I agree this strikes me as being unlikely. That said, it isn't close to unprecedented. For example, Boston offered 4 first round picks to trade up from 16 to 9 in the 2015 draft. Quote Boston offered their own No. 16 pick, the No. 15 pick from the Atlanta Hawks that was acquired in a "prearranged contingency deal," an unprotected future selection from the Brooklyn Nets and their choice of a future first-rounder from either the Memphis Grizzlies or Minnesota Timberwolves, according to Lowe. There's some dispute about whether additional second-round picks were also involved. Celtics president Danny Ainge admitted after the draft that the offer was probably too much, but it still wasn't enough to convince Charlotte to pull the trigger. The Hornets preferred Kaminsky over a bunch of picks. Hornets vice chairman Curtis Polk explained the reasoning behind not making the deal to Grantland: "You have two minutes to decide: ‘Do I want to do this trade?'" says Polk, one of five men atop Charlotte's decision tree. "You don't have a day. You don't have hours. After all the intelligence we'd done, we were comfortable with Frank. But now you have two minutes to decide if you make this trade, who you're gonna take at No. 16, or maybe No. 20, and we haven't been focusing on that range. In fantasy basketball, it sounds great: ‘Oh my God, they could have gotten all those picks.' But in the real world, I'm not sure it makes us better." 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member sturt Posted Tuesday at 09:49 PM Premium Member Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:49 PM OH! Wait. The draft is tomorrow night??? They split it into two nights now? No one told me. My knee-jerk reaction... well, if they were able to sell the commercial time for it, who am I to criticize. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're listening on Boyk... Bufkin, I'd say that means Castle is in play. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkmoor Posted Tuesday at 09:54 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:54 PM @Macknsweetjones How can the Hawks look at any future free agents and tell them to come to Atlanta and be patient while they seek the best players available after letting Sarr and his camp run them off the number 1 pick of the draft? Please tell me how can they sell that when players are already avoiding the Hawks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hylndr11 Posted Tuesday at 09:55 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:55 PM It makes sense if risa is considered the.best player in the draft, in combination with what spurs think our picks will be, I would rather get those.back than 26 this year dealing with Washington It makes sense if risa is considered the.best player in the draft, in combination with what spurs think our picks will be, I would rather get those.back than 26 this year dealing with Washington Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
