Around SBN: Sob City: Clippers Swept By Spurs

ESPN is reporting that we're swapping our 16th pick for the Grizzlies 25 and 28!


Its rumor status but I just read that (though they mixed up which team had which pick).  

This sounds awful by itself.  I don't see what we gain by picking up two more late draft picks when we have too many picks already.   Either Kahn's master plan is coming together or we are going to do something reeeealy stupid.  We'll wait and see what gets fleshed out in the coming hours.  Hopefully its better than this.

That makes no sense

if not part of something larger.

I just posted this as well…Katz has details mixed-up. He says Memphis sending 16 to MN for 25 and 28.

Maybe it’s the 16 and 23 for 12 and 28 or 25. I could deal with that.

I could deal with that too

Puts the Wolves more into the expected range of the swingmen people here covet (George, Henry)

That's the only way

this deal makes sense. Who wants picks 25 and 28 when we can offer 16 and 23? And why would any team want 4 picks in the first round?

Why would Memphis

drop from 12 to 16 and give up 28, just to move up from 25 to 23?

Oops!

I got so excited I confused the Griz with Golden State (why do I always do that?)
