Would you trade #16 + #23 + #31 + #35 for [bust]?

[Celtics18]

Alex Len (probably not available), Lucas Noguiera, McBuckets, TJ Warren.

TJ's a guy I really liked coming out of college.  I think he'd be a great candidate for the kind of thing LB33 is talking about.

[LarBrd33]

Okafor is the only one that blatantly comes to mind, and is someone I know for a fact can do better. I also think we can get Jabari Parker, and believe he will be knocking down the 3, if we are willing to give IT and possibly AB. Then if Hield drops to #6 and if he really is JJ Redick but bigger, longer, stronger, and quicker then I think he is most getable if we are willing to trade Crowder for the #6 and a future first from the Pelicans.

And next years draft is very good....Dennis Smith Jr and Bam Bam are nasty

Which is why I absolutely do not want us to trade the 2017 brooklyn right to swap. I think players in the 3-5 range next year could be as good as #1 and #2 this year.

Yeah from what i hear 2016 is a bit of a dud, but 2017 might be a pretty solid draft.  We'll want to hang onto that pick swap just in case Brooklyn fails to make improvements this Summer.  Could be looking at a pretty significant piece there.

Alex Len and McBuckets are solid ideas.  TP.

They both started to show their potential, tho.  They look like guys who will have pretty solid careers.

What?  You don't like the other two?

[alldaboston]

I like Hezonja still. I think in the right situation he can be a good NBA player.

I also like Warren and McBuckets too.

Jeremy Lamb?  Evan Fournier?

To make things fair I only pick guys that are ranked not in the top 3 of the draft usually. Check out Dennis Smith Jr and Bam Bam

[trickybilly]

I vaguely remember Kidd-Gilchrist having a nice run before injuries...

[DefenseWinsChamps]

Derrick Williams, Meyers Leonard, Ben McLemore, Tony Snell, Kyle O'Quinn

[loco_91]

This is a deep draft, and I'm convinced that there will be good prospects available through the early 2nd round. I view #16+23+31+35 combined as being as valuable as the #6 pick in this draft. So that's a no, I wouldn't even consider a trade of this nature.

yeah actually he was one of the best defenders in the league

[Csfan1984]

I can see DA getting Otto Porter

[byennie]

I think McBuckets fit the profile the best, but I would definitely not trade 2x 1st rounders and 2 picks nearly as valuable for him. I could see maybe #23 and a 2nd rounder, considering he's been a bit of a disappointment.

Then see just how far his shooting can take him, as he seems at least capable of a JJ Redick type career where he hits 45% 3PT on high volume from deep with average defense. Not what I'd expect, but I'd take a 20% chance of that for #23.
