Trading down out of the lottery, even late at #10, is such a bad idea. No one at 15 or 20 is going to have the potential or likelihood for success that Monk would have had.

If you know your draft history, this isn't really true. Monk and Collins look like good prospects but it's a crap shoot at this point. Somebody picked in the late first round will already be a more valuable player than most of these late lottery picks by the end of next year. Like Skal Labissiere for example. Getting two lottery tickets of comparable value is a good move if we spend them wisely.

Yeah, no way you can get good players outside the lottery. Like Leonard, Green, Thomas, Butler, Millsap and so on.

I applaud you for picking Kennard at 12, I had him in the late teens.

I kinda figured Detroit would pick him a few days ago. They have ever single player on the tradeblock, but I don't think they're committed to giving KCP the max. I don't think he deserves the max either. Shooting is their biggest need right now.

and.....my streak ends with Nuggets. what the hell? Mitchell from left field...wtf?????
