An unremarkable level of value that we can get later for cash if we want it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is a fan forum where dissertations and lengthy knowledgeable opinions should be welcomed. If someone backs up their opinion with stats and facts that's what they're supposed to do to persuade their argument... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you said that, then sure, maybe we could find a common ground, but saying “Isaiah Thomas pick 60” as evidence for keeping your 2nd round picks is the equivalent of me saying you should trade the #1 overall pick because Michael Olowokandi was picked #1 overall. You have a point that I don’t totally disagree with, but using isolated examples to support that isn’t very good argumentation. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If that’s the case because the argument was that there is potential value in the 2nd round and that was proven to be true. Nothing was stated that it was a guarantee. The point was taken way out of context like it is much of the time on this forum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I simply stated that (THERE IS POTENTIAL VALUE IN THE 2nd ROUND) evident by the list of many current players in the NBA that I provided earlier in this thread. Where in the world you perceived me overvaluing 2nd round picks based on the statement above is beyond my comprehension. You folks are making it very difficult to enjoy a fruitful experience on a board that is suppose to be about sharing ideas and enthusiasm about our team. Isn’t that the purpose of a moderator? It’s not about you but about the collective consciousness of the whole board. Check the ego at the keyboard. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
