So essentially they don’t want too many rookies and are fine with trading a lottery pick for a future pick that will sure to be worse than their current pick along with acquiring some picks for the Greensboro Swarm… like they couldn’t even get a vet player out of the deal? They couldn’t attach Hayward to the deal to offload his salary? They are just giving away picks now…

Yeah that trades a real head scratcher. We basically got nothing. If it’s the bucks pick they ain’t not making the playoffs 3 years from now  as long as they have giannis

Have you guys actually seen Duren play??...He is the same rim running/lob threat that Mark Williams is. Duren is more athletic overall but from what I've seen of Duren he doesn't have much of an offensive game. 

No he isn’t….much more talented and 2 years younger.   Duren was the perfect fit but Mitch is thinking too much

Fuggin Duren with Lamelo would have been amazing but we get the Bucks pick in 2025.  WTF,  aren’t they one of the best teams in the East?

So fuggin stupid

Both are bigs that really offer no floor spacing.. in pick amd roll situations Duren was miles ahead of Williams athletically.. the edge Williams has is post moves due to physicality but neither are even average shooters and that's where my issue lies. 

I mean we desperately needed Defense and rebounding. Plumlee/Zeller pick and rolls haven't really done poo for us over the last 5 years if they are useless in the paint

What world are they living in? The team lost the play in game and they think we don’t have room on the roster to add young talent? Maybe if they actually played our first round picks instead of Martins and Plumlees they would have some sort of idea of whether we had real dudes or jags. Just a thought.

Mark Williams is a good pick. Duren is raw and the youngest player in the draft. How much realistically do ya'll think he would have contributed next year??..We already have that player on the roster by the name of Kai Jones. Mark Williams will come in and play at least 20 minutes a game.  

Must be a duke fan lol

    • A Parable.  By MHS. Once in MHS land, there were two ways to get home from Lowe's.  MHS's wife, the evil scourge from Ohio, used to shriek, "Turn right!!! It is faster!!!"  MHS refused to give in to the evil scourge's unsubstantiated logic because he had a different, more direct path in mind.  That did not deter the evil scourge from scourging, until one day, the evil scourge's brother met us at Lowe's and she rode home with him, determined to get home more quickly with her Ohio State graduated brother.  They turned right.   Behind them, I turned left.  When they arrived at our home, the evil scourge's lair, I was already parked, inside the house, and feasting on a warm Pop Tart.  The evil scourge had been defeated.  Moral?  Sometimes, you think your way is the best way or the only way.  That makes you an evil scourge, blind to the ways of someone else, who might have a better way that your ego blinds you from considering. The End.
    • We'll see. No one thought Jayden Daniels was gonna be the #2 overall pick this time last year. No one would've predicted Joe Burrow being the #1 overall pick a year prior. 
    • Brooks himself confirmed he's already running and will be ready for training camp come July.  There's diff types of tears and a 6th month recovery for a clean tear linesn up.    If that's the case, I think he's getting snaps immediately and that could be bulk/majority by midseason worst case.
