2 of those picks probably won't be late round, as when you're paying broken down cp3 and butler 40 mil a year with no bench in a couple years you'll probably be in the lottery toward end of their maxes.
Furthermore it's only been a report, I'll beleive they offered 4 1st when I see it accepted. Sound a like wolves pressuring others to up offers.Comment -
So a given a guy will be an elite player into his late 30s when a handful of dudes have done it, and no, Paul will be getting paid 40 mil a year by them for the next handful of years tail end when he's in that age group. Add butler to that list they'd be capped out with a bad roster in 4-5 years. The picks will be the wolves for every other for 7. Very likely 1-2 of those will be decent to good.
Wish there were a good way to wager literally anythjng you just said, I'd bet the houseComment -
Sorry at least the next 10 years pushes the guy to 40 😂🤣 I'll wager my house against that one.Comment -
I seem to remember they wanted Westbrook when he was available, but they didn't want to trade for him, figuring they could get him for free.
I don't reckon they'll have that many more years of LeBron James, he'll probably be looking to retire in the next few years id imagine.They cant rely Antonio Davis just drops to them in free agency.I get what your saying though,but sometimes you can be to frugal aswell,to the point where you lose out.Comment -
Harden will be 36yo in 7 years, Capela will be 31yo. 36 is not particularly old for a guard of Harden's calibre.
By decent to good I assume you mean out of the playoffs and into the lottery once or twice. I don't think so...Comment -
You said 10 years, whcih is what I replied to. 36 for a guard built on falling to the ground and getting to the line is very old. People see what lebron is doing and take it as the rule instead of the exception to the rule. Look at the top 50 guards of all time and you'll find maybe a couple who were top players in the league or "elite" at 36 years of age.
They'll be out of the playoffs within 7 years. They'll be more likely to be out of playoffs if they max out butler along with cp3.
Only time will tell.
With that said, for reasons I mentioned I still doubt 4 picks were offered and beleive leaked story by wolvesComment -

Show some respect lol. You're talking about one of the most skilled guards ever. Old timers marvel at what he is able to do as an iso' scorer and a playmaker -no he doesn't have others setting him up for open shots like Curry.Comment -
^^^I'd much rather have Leonard then Butler.. Oh and no one is in love playing in Toronto.. Shits cold, alot of travel to play games all season long, small market, etc... I'd be surprised if Leonard doesn't walk and go to a larger market like in LA next year..
If the Lakers think they can hold out and get Leonard then they shouldn't try to get Jimmy Butler.. I understand Lebron only has a few good years left and the organization should try to win now, I'm just not sure you should trade away your young talent for Jimmy Butler just yet... That's a tough call...Comment -
Toronto is the 4th largest city in North America after Mexico City, New York and Los AngelesComment -
You are right it's ranked #6.. Thanks for the heads up.. I always thought it was a smaller NBA market for some reason.. I did know the city is large though.

Jimmy Butler getting dissed in the media... https://sports.yahoo.com/jimmy-butle...042459042.htmlComment -
if rockets make playoffs and have a good record 1st round pick is near the end of the round almost like a 2nd round pick, teams want lottery picks nba draft isn't like the nfl draft where u can find studs late usually it's top 10 picks and even the last 5 years the talent level has dropped bigglyComment -
jimmy butler says he will decide if he plays in back to back games, easy to see why nobody likes this guy
