Phoenix is sending Boston the first-round pick that it owns via Minnesota, league source tells Yahoo Sports.

Guys, any protection for that pick?


Hey thats not bad, surely its top 7 protected.

Thank goodness this happened quickly. Wright will be a nice fit on PHX.

Miss you Gerald!

2015 first round draft pick from Minnesota
Minnesota's 1st round pick to Phoenix protected for selections 1-12 in 2015 and 1-12 in 2016; if Minnesota has not conveyed a 1st round pick to Phoenix by 2016, then Minnesota will instead convey its 2016 2nd round pick and 2017 2nd round pick to Phoenix [Minnesota-New Orleans-Phoenix, 7/27/2012]

A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals.

Push yourself again and again. Don't give an inch until the final buzzer sounds.

Pick will likely turn into two seconds, a la our Philly pick.

Here's the pick:

Noooice!!  A couple 2nd rounders for Wright (can't see Minny finishing outside of the bottom 12 next year despite how great Wiggins looks).   The Rondo package is starting to look good.


So its gonna be similar to the Philly pick we already have (two future early 2nds)  - better than nothing I guess.

Exactly.

Not anything to get excited over.

Kyle Lowry, Dwayne Wade, 13th pick in even numbered rounds, 18th pick in odd numbered rounds.

This is essentially a 2016 2nd and 2017 2nd...  I think Minny has an exciting young core, but I can't see them moving out of the bottom 12 next year.

Almost certain at this point unless Wiggins morphs into the next Lebron.
2021 Houston Rockets
PG: Kyrie Irving/Patty Mills/Jalen Brunson
SG: OG Anunoby/Norman Powell/Matisse Thybulle
SF: Gordon Hayward/Demar Derozan
PF: Giannis Antetokounmpo/Robert Covington
C: Kristaps Porzingis/Bobby Portis/James Wiseman

Note that we now have an open roster spot, so no one needs releasing if we make a 1-for-2 deal in a Green or Bass trade.

It's just an extension of the Rondo trade...   so it's plenty to be happy over.   So far we have a late 1st and two 2nds for letting Dallas borrow our star PG for a few months (before we sign him back this Summer) ... let's see if Ainge squeezes any additional picks out of that deal.

I hate to be the dummy that asks questions that are answerable with a Google search, but I thought he couldn't be traded yet.

I guess I don't hate being that guy that much.

He can be traded by himself immediately. But there's a waiting period before he can be combined with another player in a trade.

Ahhh okay thanks and TP. Also, even if that Minny pick turns out to be two 2nds, that's better than I thought we'd get for Wright.

We are coming closer and closer by the day to realizing my dream of having every pick in the 2016 draft.

Hmm. Good chance this could end up being two 2nds.

Could also end up being a halfway decent pick.

Great. More NBA fringe players.
