Sixers fans was GASSED earlier talking about "2021 1st pick with protections" FOH

Watch the Lakers beat the Celtics to the punch and offer the #2, Randle, and Brewer for Butler or PG13.

And yet everyone would like to be in our situation, hate on

Protections?

Picks are worthless if lottery protected. Boston might get screwed here

 

[essential1]

This is a real Boom or Bust move for Ainge...

If Ainge hits, it's an amazing deal.. But the bust side of it is pretty damn hilarious

Care to wager?

Nah I'll pass on that one. But I know you know you haven't forgotten about the 1K jinx

 

[addict4sneakers]

I still wouldn't have traded the #1 pick.

But more power to the 6ers

Bruh, we're getting Fultz. Who ******* cares what picks we give up. The Lakers pick, since it's protected, may not even go to Boston either lmao

 

[buc em]

I wonder what the protections are. We literally traded the ghost of MCW and this

I think the Kings pick is protected, not sure about the Lakers. 

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Yea it's not really an overpay for Philly since they basically completed their roster and they wouldn't have room for those picks anyway

 

[Retroballer]

Lakers pick loses its protection next year. It's Boston's regardless how the lakers finish.

There was a rule change last summer where the new team can add protections to previously traded unprotected picks. So Philly theoretically could do it, but I'm not sure if Boston would have made the trade w/o at least one unprotected pick.

Shoutout to Hinkie the GAWD

 

[MVP]

Oh wow. This is bad if true.

Actually it's not, Sac pick is protected, Lakers isn't. 

 

[essential1]

Could have just went with the # 1 pick + BK pick for Jimmy Butler....Better package than #3, BK pick & Sacramento 2019


If I'm Chicago, I hold out until they trade every pick they have

 

[kidoopz]

Okafor is gone.. And Celtics gotta be trading that pick For Jimmy buckets.

[ValarMorghulis]

Congrats to the Sixers..... aint even mad.

That lineup!


And this dude BC put in "Doncic Insurance"

 

[essential1]

Celtics get #3.... Lakers pick if it falls 2-5 in 2018, if not they get 2019 Kings

 

[gaiiige]

lmao danny ainge dumb as bricks for this one i tell ya 

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Great trade by colangelo. Possibly gave up a late lotto pick for #1
