The stoop with dat dope fanny padding
The first was a long shot in a way, odds of the wolves not being one of the worst 14 teams the next 2 years isnt that good..

That's the Brandan wright pick, that's not this one

Apparently we are still getting a 1st rounder too but I don't think it'd be til 2019 if it's from memphis

Uncertain grounds
Looks that way



The question is are we still getting a first?



Pelicans declined Austin's option tho so he's an unrestricted free agent after this season

Most likely. I think Rivers was just salary filler and a way for memphis to move a bit of salary by dumping quincy. Id be really surprised if we didnt, but on the other hand, the Rondo haul was underwhelming and Green is expected to opt out..diminishing his value to Memphis to a certain degree and similarly making Danny less adamant on the returns since it would otherwise be for nothing.

Yes, the framework is

Memphis gets Jeff Green & Russ Smith
New Orleans gets Quincy Pondexter
Boston gets Austin Rivers, Tayshaun Prince and a future 1st

celtics should be able to finish at the bottom top 3 of the east if everything goes that way. no way they can beat sixers and knicks at that.

austin rivers should have went to nba later, way too raw and looks like a draft bust, celtics already have one draft bust in evan turner. Fukk these guys. I wanna see James Young getting some minutes.

I really, really hope he turns it around in Boston.

He can be a solid rotational player but his jumper is :mjlol:. It's not a character or work ethic issue with him, I simply think dude just doesn't have the talent for the NBA. He's a good defender at times though (although this past season he's regressed in that as well).

Maybe playing for a tire fire team will give him a chance to blossom...if he can't shine on Boston then he is done.


Man...we traded our 2012 #10 pick for our 2010 #26 pick. :pachaha:

Why couldn't Dame fall to us in the 2012 Draft. AD and Lillard. :ohlawd:
