Dropping from 36 to 45 for just cash is a little dissapointing. You wonder if they thought someone would be there at 36 and then when they weren't there they were willing to make a move. Let's see what they do next.Lipoli390 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 26, 2025 7:55 pm I think it’s clear there are no remaining prospects TC likes. I would think he got a couple future 2nd rounders from the Lakers but we don’t know yet. So he’s just trading down to accumulate some future 2nd rounders picks. Boston certainly did a better job of leveraging pick 32 for future 2nd rounders, but we’ll have to look at the combined return for both pick 31 and pick 36 for a fair comparison.

That's possible but if they didn't they could have taken something more like the Boston offer.Jester1534 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 26, 2025 8:01 pmOr they flat out dont like anyoneMonster wrote: ↑Thu Jun 26, 2025 8:00 pmDropping from 36 to 45 for just cash is a little dissapointing.

Re: Second Round: Official Draft Day Thread
If they do pick someone, it's either a stash, or a 2-way. And if it's a 2-way, what 2-way are we bumping? Probably Newton...
