But did they then ship the 24th pick back to Cleveland?

No actually I didnt. Were you saying the Warriors havent done well in the draft? I would disagree with that over the past few years.

No..

That we rebuilt the wrong way
The Blazers traded a couple players for 1st rounders, (Gerald Wallace for #6 was one I remember off the top of my head) and tanked this year to rebuild

Our front office was too impatient and for some reason went into win now mode even though we've been one of the worst teams in the league for the last 5 years.

I wish we could have rebuilt the right way. We should have traded Monta for a high pick (although I dont mind the Bogut trade), traded Lee for a 1st rounder if we could have, amnestied Beidrins. We would have a bunch of cap room and draft picks to build our team the right way. Instead we have the roster of a team that can barely win to get the 8th seed and a s**tty cap situation.

I think Cleveland still makes the pick, and the rights are to Dallas. When the trade is made official at a later time, the rights are swapped at that point.


Can somebody confirm?

Trades dont become official until all picks are made that apart of the deal, so when picks 33 and 34 are done then it will be official.

How long has Perry Jones III been the BPA?

You really liked the Bogut deal when it was made. Just be consistent. The only huge error they made was to not amnesty Biedrins. Trading Monta and now getting Bogut AND Barnes has turned out to be brillant.

Jones goes to OKC here.
