    They can have 23 OR 24 OR their first back. The hell with anything more. Perfectly content to stay at 2.

    Dallas gave up future first (ended up being #10, Cam Reddish) to move from 5 to 3
    Philly gave up a future first (ended up being #14, Romeo Langford) to move from 3 to 1.

    I really want a tag team lap dance from Mila Kunis and Natalie Portman revising their roles in Black Swan.

    Think I can make it happen?

    #2, #24, and Detroit's first for number 1.


    #23 and Gordon for #13.


    Cade and Sengun.


    Make it happen, Stone.

    The Piston’s future first is highly protected. That’s not an apples to apples comparison. Personally, I’d rather give up 23, 24, and the Piston’s pick rather than an unprotected future first.

    I don’t see it happening. Why you ask??

    Well months ago I wanted the Rockets to get the second pick to get Green. That’s exactly what happened. And now you screw it up giving away assets to NOT take the player I want?!? No thank you take Green. He is electric seems to have an apparent desire and will to improve.

    keep the core of

    Green/KPJ/Tate/Martin/a player from below trade (likely a forward from the top of the draft.


    veterans DJ and Olynic

    Trade 23 and 24 and Wood and Gordon if he is deemed a positive in a trade (I do believe is regarded as that) for the best package you can get

    After next season your young guys get a ton of minutes still resulting in a high draft pick and then target the center you want. Then after two years of Green and other young players consider packaging assets to target a player. While using free cap space from Wall’s contract being gone. If you followed this strategy I would be supremely happy.

    Stone would win Executive of the Year if this were to happen. Not for getting Cade or Sengun but for getting a lottery pick out of Eric Gordon.

    Its a win-win, I'll be ecstatic for either Cade or Jalen. Feel bad for the poor guy that lands in Detroit.

    Agreed, but I want to use Gordon and,or Tate to move up from 23 to get another possible impact player. Go back and look at history of who has been picked at 13 as an example.

    Which means they really want Green.
