So maybe now they have Chriss/Bender, Warren, and/or 31 as trade pieces. What can they get?

I meant 76ers were seemingly desperate.

The sixers got a great draft pick, for what they consider to be a small downgrade. That is not desperate.

But I will say this - the sixers have the largest collection of draft picks of like any team, they need to start focusing on quality, not quantity.

I know, but my point is, we had the cards, not them. They already made their pick, wanted Smith just about as much, and got us to give up our Miami pick at the last second.

If someone is doing that, I want a discount.

So will Mikal Bridges, at 6'6"-205 be a backup Small Forward? It has been assumed that, when Warren lost his starting job, the plan is to move him.

What is the thinking about our getting a Point Guard?

We're going to be active in free agency and trades. The roster is nowhere close to being set, which is why I'm not panicking yet

They called with 30 seconds left and we agreed to give up our best asset?


They called us with 30 seconds left.

Certainly it can be questioned but Mikal Bridges is a very talented player. I wouldn't have included the future Miami pick but I'm not the GM.

From Bordow on Mikal Bridges.

This was my thought...... Could make a reasonable case that we have two great defenders to support two sub par defenders.

And a pick 3 years from now may be worth nothing by the time we get there. It's a risk...... But I am fine with it.
