I don't know if it's been changed, but can you trade retired players?

Draftxpress's is pretty acurate.
Luol Deng maybe, not as good defensively and Aaron Afflalo floor.
At this point it seems like you just hate the guy
IMO Barnes will have a better NBA Career than college career, and for a fact a better career than Austin Rivers and Dion.
I don't hate him, I'm not even saying that Austin and Waiters necessarily better than him. BUT MKG? People overate offense and downplay defense like it's not half the game.
HE CAN'T GET INTO THE PAINT. He's 6'8 thats how he gets off his jumper, he doesn't have great scoring instings, guys who have that get in the mother +!##%!% paint. Look ho useless he was without Kendall Marshall, guys who are real bonafied scorers don't need PG's to spoon feed them shots.
1. No he can't.
2. They tried to give the ball to Barnes and he filed miserably ask Larry Drew. He needs Kendall, to get him open looks becuase he struggles to get them by himself.
3. You know, Miles Plumelee is not to shabby of a shot blocker, but he's not anthony davis, yes Barnes is a solid defender, but there is still a rather large difference between him and MKG, who profiles as an elite multi positional shutdown defender.

⢠Back to the Lakers. If the Cavs are able to move up and nab Beal at No. 2, thereâs talk the Lakers would be willing to make life easy for the Wizards and help them move out of the third spot. It would likely take power forward Pau Gasol. Far-fetched for now, but donât be surprised if itâs something thatâs explored in the right situation.
⢠Wizards big man Andray Blatche could also be part of that, or another, trade.
SMH (if true)

If Barnes struggles to get into the paint now, imagine later on?
Just not enough potential for me to take him that high.

@DraftExpress Sources say Houston has an offer of Lowry, the #14 and #16 picks for Tyreke Evans and the #5 pick on the table. Up to Sacramento to decide.
Edit:
I don't think he's filed the paperwork yet.

But he's the best athlete in the draft...
And he was just waiting to get to the league before he started being good at basketball...

What time does the draft start? Like the first pick?
I know the draft coverage starts at 7ET/4PT but I don't want to take off work early just to see an hour of ESPN BS.

So, we are expecting Barnes to just regress as a player and MKG to reach his full potential?

MKG is a winner though, you cant quantify, nor put a price, on that.

I feel better about MKG going forward as opposed to Barnes. Much better.

Minnesota needed somebody who could shoot the 3 from the wing, Chase can do that. not bad for the 18th pick.
Regress, who said regress. He can't score efficiently in the college, he won't do it in the NBA. I'm simply saying he will stay the same.

Why?
Lowry is the better player and they can bolster their depth. There will be some VERY good talent available at the 14/16 spots.

Keith Van Horn was...
Remember him?
I really respect what Morey is doing.. you cant live in mediocrity forever. Making moves will either sink them or lift them, either way is better than where they are.
If the Lakers get the #3 pick regardless of Blatche....
