    Either way... VERY good if it's just one lottery pick, one 15 and below pick and two second rounders.

    Heh. Something tells me they will rationalize their way out.

    I'm guessing that article is wrong and it's one pick that rolls over.

    This is exactly what i wanted. So dont start. Its high draft picks and rebuild mode. I remember a bunch of diots going for Dwight Howard and the funny thing is we probably flip all of this stop for Dwight Howard now.

    It may revert to 2 second round picks if the conditions aren't met for 5 years...I'm not sure if you can have a trade for a pick that just vanishes into nothing and have that be witin NBA rules (maybe, don't feel like looking it up).

    Wait...so if Raptors make the playoffs for the next 5 years we get jacked? Please tell me that's not true. It's not out of the question for this move and their young guns to get them in as a playoff team.

    That's a lot for Lowry man. That's like trading Lowry for an 8th pick THIS year. Except you know, next year. It could conceivably be a higher pick than too. So imagine next year we could get the 4th or 5th pick. Good value.

    Yeah, and if New York matches? At this point they seem poised to.

    Eaxactly. We may never get these draft picks if they really suck bad or make the playoffs.
