    With the Fisher Trade, do we now have our first, NY's First(top 5 protected) and Dallas(from LA)(Top 20 Protected) all while still having our 2nd rounder?

    That plus Cap Flexibility sure sounds like Morey did good in setting the Rockets up for a good Summer?

    Realistically speaking, we only have NY's pick. Dallas prob won't go top 10, and we probably gonna make playoff

    I believe if we make the playoffs, we lose our pick. So we would have Dallas and NYK.

    Assuming that the knicks and the rockets make the playoffs and the mavericks are in the top 10, we'd have two picks. Furthermore, because our obligation to new jersey is fulfilled we'd be able to trade our 2013 first round pick.

    Wouldn't surprise me if we try to deal most of our team for lower picks, then combine those picks with the other ones to move way up in the draft.

    It actually looks pretty good. Assuming the Mavs don't all of a sudden start sucking.

    We will probably make the playoffs (which means we lose our pick) and the mav's probably will be in the top 20 this year (which means we don't get they're pick this year). We do get the NYK's pick which is most likely a mid round pick. We also did traded a second rounder for camby but i don't know the details about it. So lets assume we traded our 2012 second rounder, we then have a mid first round pick and an mid/early second round pick (T-Wolves pick).
