[Smith] Trade a player everyone loves, acquire a first-rounder, then trade back, then trade back again. Brad Stevens really is Bill Belichicking this offseason.

    Is Marcus playing the role of Chandler Jones? Or is he more Stephon Gilmore at this point?

    Anyone hyped about 2nd rounders can go fuck themselves

  3. JaysonBaetum

    I really hope this doesn’t become the narrative if these picks don’t pan out. In my eyes, we traded Marcus for KP.

  4. FriedFlesh

    I convince myself they’re the next great steal then turns out they’re not our pick

    Second rounders are less expensive than firsts, I feel like this is an apron move

    Brad bout to grab Sanogo and I’m here for it

  7. Such a bad take lol. We traded up like 9 spots into the late first round. When our pick came around there was no one we liked. So instead we move back a whopping 6 picks and get a few extra future 2nds where we might find someone we like more.

    Why pick someone we have no interest in picking other than to say “see we used the first round pick!” Makes no sense at all

    The stupidest of takes, ignoring the whole getting KP being the point of the trade.

  9. jjjuuubbbsss

    Smart for KP, then Moose and Gallo for cap flexibility. Just sucks that Smart needed to go for this to work. Stupid Clippers not giving us what we want lol.

    Yeah… Now nobody will even remember who we got in exchange for smart in terms of draft capital. Realistically will get the first round pick next year and then a bunch of second round picks that will never make the roster.

    I think people are just making the point that it’s not like they really coveted somebody at the 25 spot. Ultimately they didn’t covet anyone at all.

    Does Marcus Smart trade increasingly looks like a panic move and not something that was done with a lot of foresight..
