2018 1st rounder

2018 first rounder is probably our best trade chip.

It is seen leaguewide as a nice value. Probably now it is the right time to cash in. Of course assuming that Dell wants (he wants).

MM mentioned on twitter and in BSS article about new draft strategy. Is it smart or not? time will tell -see Diallo and Jackson.


IMO other GM's expect AD-DMC combo to fail, and may see Pels as a decent 1st rounder. Probably at the trade deadline value of this pick won't be so high (hoppefully).

Also - heard different podcasts about 2018 class - and looks that it is not so deep as in 2017. TBH- best case for Pels is pick in early 20s - there were no great players in this range this year.


If Pels were to trade this pick - what is Your value of it.
Do You wanna dump Asik/Hill. Do You wanna attach it to a player? Do you wanna remain with it.


I am for trading it in a deal like Ajinca, QPon & pick for a player (let's say Lin, Rubio etc). Best case will be to trade using 2nd rounders - but it is not always possible...



Beverley for 2018th pick (top3 protected)
T. Jones and Rubio for Moore and 2018th pick (top3 protected)---->>> trade exception for us
Fournier for 1st rounder, Hill, Pondexter
