    bass + lee + 1st round pick (that morey couldn't agree on)

    maybe we get a solid player with 18th pick ?

    Damn, I still kinda wanted the lotto pick. Especially if we have to see SA in round 2 anyway.

    Try to give up both picks to move up in the draft or get a great 3 point shooter

    I'll take it, should be some good picks and the 32nd pick has some real good value and I would expect the rockets to keep and use that pick.

    should have traded the NOP pick in a package for a PG at the deadline

    I'm very happy to have the 18th pick instead of the 14th pick this year for a change!

    Just thinking of this.

    So you avoid GS and get the 2 seed...

    ....but it's looking like Memphis will be 5th and San Antonio 6th.

    But playing them with home court advantage trumps everything, regardless of when or if we will actually play them.

    Yeah our luck with that 14th pick has been garbage :p Probably still gonna get traded away in the offseason though, unless Morey thinks the world of one of the available PGs.

    For those of you who are upset about losing the prospective lotto pick, remember that TJones was the 18th pick.

    Relax and enjoy the division championship

    The 2 seed is worth moving 4 picks back in a good-not-great draft

    Morey will find somebody. Could be a Dorsey, could be a DMo. Either way, we'll prosper.

    Move up to get the BPA. Preferably a PG.

    They will go higher than that. That's the problem here.
