Would rather have D Mitchell over KD or Booker. 
 

Clutch Fans guessed we will make a move to acquire a 2026 FRP because we currently don’t have one. 
 

They were citing the Stepian rule (never heard of) as one of the reasons. Can’t find the post now on that abortion of a message board.

It's the rule that states you can't trade 1st round picks in consecutive years in the same calendar year. That's why you see so many trades that are 1st Round in 2025,2027,2029 with pick swaps in 2026 and 2028.

I have  no idea what is happening in 2025

2026 - we have the worst of picks between us, LAC, and OKC.

2027 - we own ours but can swap with either BRK or PHX

2028 - Own

2029 - Two most favorable of HOU, DAL, PHX

2030 - Own

We traded one first rounder and a swap of Nets picks for two first rounders and and two swap options related to Phoenix but pushed the capital down the road. I think Htownhorn flipped 2025 and 2026.

2024
Brooklyn's pick (#3 overall)

2025
Get the worse of HOU/OKC but can swap it with PHX

2026
No first rounder (Our pick goes to OKC unless in top 4)

2027
Own pick but can swap with Brooklyn
and also get PHX's pick

2028
Own pick

2029
Best 2 picks out of HOU, PHX, and DAL

LOL get the fuck out of here. His advanced metric measurables are ELITE and he had the best vertical in the combine. He is the best shooter to come out of college in a long ass time. You keep saying we need a “euro shooter”. We just got the best shooter period. 52% from 3.
