    As long as we draft a big wing or big man I'm good, but I hope the pick is flipped with Westbrook.

    Should’ve been able to get a similar deal for Gordon that we got for Roco. Gordon should able to fetch two draft picks

    Reminder ... Chandler Parsons was an instant starter at #38.

    All I ask is if we draft someone that he isn't undersized for his position.

    I won't get attached to a pick until said pick becomes a player that's on our team opening night. Otherwise, knowing this team, it's just trade bait.

    Gordon shot 37% from the field last year 31% from 3. He’s not worth much

    I'd be okay with a servicable young big from New York or a young guy from Charlotte.

    It’s exciting to have a first round pick regardless of the spot. It’s even more exciting if it helps Westbrick leaving.

    Probably self-pity but also the sheer improbability. More likely to unearth Terrence Jones

    I think Wussa by himself is worth that and a pick.

    Definitely not. 31 year old, Oft injured player whose been struggling for a long time. Coming off a fresh new contract with about a little less than $80mil remaining for 4 more years. Basically the opposite of RoCo

    I would be happy with trading Westbrook for Bridges and a 2nd rd pick. Then draft a center.
