Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 22, 2017 When they were hired i thought Weltman was in charge but everyone talks like Hammond is in charge I have no idea how a POBO works. he might just sign off on moves. he might be big picture. my problem is we might be drafting players to fit the picture instead of BPA and then developing the picture around that. Because it's obvious the league is going toward Milwaukee where you throw out four 6'8+ guys on the court at the same time and just have them switch everything. and Isaac fits that. but he's not BPA.

Nyce_1 311 Report post Posted June 22, 2017 So wait, boston has brooklyns pick next year too?! In addition to the philly (formerly LaL) pick they just acquired? Sp we're looking at an ECF teams that more than likely has 3 top 5 picks in the next two drafts? We're screwed then, even post Lebron. Boston, philly and minnesota are wayy ahead of us Luckily, Ainge can't draft for ****. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nyce_1 311 Report post Posted June 22, 2017 John Hammond didn’t get his nickname “Trader John’’ for nothing. During his nine-year tenure as the Bucks general manager, Hammond seemingly made a trade as often as he combed his well-kempt hair. Look for Hammond to shuffle the deck now that he’s the new Magic GM. NBA officials said Hammond has been working the phones, trying to move point guard Elfrid Payton and veteran centers Nikola Vucevic and Bismack Biyombo. If Hammond is successful in moving Payton, it will likely impact the Magic’s draft plans. The consensus among NBA officials is the Magic will draft Florida State forward Jonathan Isaac with the sixth overall selection. However, if Payton is moved, the Magic may change plans at select North Carolina State point guard Dennis Smith. http://woelfelspressbox.com/2017/06/nba-trade-winds-intensifying/ :creaturedance: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
