Don't see why you want the pick anyway. Should package Nets pick, Boston pick, and 2 players (evan turner, sully or kelly) for Cousins.

If it ends up outside of #1 that's what may happen...

Is Jamal Murray the next big thing?
What about Ulis will he bust?

Call me crazy, but I'm not all that impressed with Simmons like many others are. He can't shoot, doesn't really look to score or take over games, and doesn't have the explosiveness of Lebron. I'm not saying he's not good, because he definitely is, but I think many are going to be somewhat disappointed by his play on the next level (ie expecting the next Lebron, but getting the next Paul George).
Personally, I think Brandon Ingram or Jaylen Brown will have the better NBA career.

I predict Murray will be a solid pro, but not a star/superstar or anything like that. Ullis, probably D-League/overseas/fringe NBA.

u see, lakers are tanking, so we can get a no.1 pick.
76ers are actually trying to win games, but failed 25 times.

Some of you may already know that I am a lifelong New Orleans fan but I am also a fan of the Cavaliers as well. Going into this season our best players were not really healthy and LeBron is already starting to break down and feel the wear and tear of the regular season and we are only one quarter way through. If Kyrie gets injured again while LeBron is sitting out then it's pretty much over. LeBron has already hinted at that he still needs more help. To be completely honest this isn't our year. Cleveland needs more help or we won't be able to do it.

20ppg in college = doesn't look to score.

nevermind the fact that the Lakers owner said he thought they'd be good enough for an 8th seed this year....

How can ben simmons impress anyone, no superstar/all-star can survive in the nba without a jumpshot :facepalm

1. A large percentage of his points come from putbacks and transition.
2. Without that 43 point game against that Division II college, his ppg average would probably be more like 15ppg.

it's also the facts that jimmy has been smoking heavy sh*t and stoned all day long. that guy has no clue what is he talking about.

What i'm lost on is you say you will be getting Paul George who healthy is a top 10 player. Then go on to say Ingram and Brown will have better careers based on what? Considering you capped Ben at George level, then Ingram/Brown must be a nba player better than Paul George.
What has Ingram really shown? You can count on two games where he showed something, but he's mostly not lived up to his hype.
Not that I disagree with Ben is no Bron and he can't shoot. Those two are accurate, his outside game needs work. But Ben does impact the game without scoring in a way a PG does. Which makes me wonder could he play PG at the next level. He has ball handling, he has ability to take a man off the dribble, he has vision, he sees the floor well. I would feel entirely comfortable giving him the ball on the inbound pass and letting him run my offense. Chances a team risks putting him there are slim but I feel he could do it. Moreso than the hype of the Greek Freak being able too.
You can always put him at SF and have a Mo Williams/Mario Chalmers type PG. That's more ideal.

I'd consider trading this year's #1 but sure as shit not for Cousins. F*ck that guy.

Don't forget the 76ers give the Celtics their 2nd round pick. The 31st pick in the draft is pretty valuable because it's not guaranteed.

Pelicans also need to keep it up and get passed Brooklyn. Which they should, but once other teams lose playoff connection Brooklyn may get more wins due to having no positive to losing.

Pretty valuable? It's nice to have because you can try and be one of the few teams to find a decent role player in that round. About it. Celtics really don't need that unless they make a big trade to put them over the top. Which is likely given how many assets they have in their hand. Good to have regardless but wouldn't mention it when the prize is the Nets pick. Lettuce be realism hurr
