I just don't trust shyt Chris Broussard says. Watching that Trade Deadline special and Amin mentioned how no one had even mentioned Washington as a possible landing spot for Markieff and of course Broussard comes in with "oh yeah I had that a few days ago that Washington was looking to acquire him".

The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
The only player I can see him throwing all those picks at are Boogie, because he can be the player your entire offense is built around.

For him to trade those picks it would need to be for someone in the 22-26 year old range that can really help them out right now, basically an AD/Boogie level talent.

But what do you need the other two first rounders for? You're not adding 3 rookies to this team.

Why not trade lee and the 2 picks for gasol or Howard?

They aren't going to be a treadmill team though, who can they sign this offseason that will help them avoid being straight up ass?


That trade has already paid off for the Celtics, they are getting a top 5 pick this year.
In a crappy draft.

If it ain't Simmons, Bender or Ingram, they're gonna have little to show for it.

Because maybe the Bulls & Rockets didn't want to do that? Lee has negative trade value btw

He can't force teams to make trades man, this ain't 2K with the override option

They'll end up like the Knicks, overpaying for dudes that just don't do much.

They need so much, basically all they have are Lopez, Young and Jefferson, they lack a PG & SG, they have no depth and no youth outside of Rondae.


exactly....shyt will be horrible...I don't even know if its possible but if I was the GM Marks I'd run around signing dudes to 1 year deals annually and look to foreign leagues and D-league guys who will play all out with heart before overpaying vets and signing them to long term deals. I'd also use my cap space to help facilitate trades by getting picks or young players.
