2017 NBA Draft Thread

wtf

[YoungPanthers89]

So we traded back for what fuging reason?

[Panther49er]

Traded for cash? Like MJ doesn't have enough cash. Wtf, just take the player you want and be done with it

[toldozer]

Getting money to pay some luxury tax!!!!! 

[themikestrick]

The cash is part of Cho's bonus for getting someone to take that bum Plumlee.

[Goondal]

The only thing I can think is the guy they wanted at 31 was gone so they decided to trade back to a spot that will count less against the cap?  I dunno how that stuff works though

[MrBubba]

Would prefer Thornwell.  

[toldozer]

Goes in mj''s pocket. Doesn't affect the salary cap. But say they gave him 3 million dollars, he could potentially use that money to pay the light bill or the luxury tax. At least Part of it after signing Hayward.  I know they won't but if the hornets managed to get him they would be legit contenders.

Maybe they can get a swap and give Utah MKG and Lamb for Hayward.  At least Utah gets some players instead of nothing.

I really wanted Hart or Bradley myself so was good with the trade if it helps them out against the cap/tax or whatever.  They actually took the guy I wanted in the first for once so I would have been good with just about anything at that point.
