Remember, I will only accept the draft pick list via the Sonics, not the Blazers. He has to send me the list. gotcha

It depends on how this draft shakes up.
2 of the top 3 picks and cap space is powerful to build a team. The two picks are good (although still not a fan of Buehler) But, the Hawks have had cap space the last 2 years in free agancy, and we have learned how important win rating can be. Blazers have a 30 win rating. Free agency may be tough. But, I do like the young group of Russel, Schultz, and Telfair. They can definitely score, but that has never been the Blazers issue.

I love this deal now...look at the difference:
Earl Watson: PG - Makes $1 million this year 29 6'1'' 190 C+ C A- A- C- C
John Mitchell: SF - Makes $1.7 million this year 24 6'5'' 219 C C C C C- A
Watson immediately becomes my backup PG, allowing Blake more time at the SG position. (by the way, Blake finished top-10 in FG percentage two of the last three years while playing both guard positions).
I finally get a very good ballhandler to play behind English. Oh yes, he is a very good defender as well.
I think this was a great deal for the Sonics.

Sonics, I'm not convinced ... when you 'had' Watson, what players did you have around him? that's a big difference.

Sonics, I'm not convinced ... when you 'had' Watson, what players did you have around him? that's a big difference. all i asked of him was "defend" and "don't turn the ball over". He did neither. And this in a lineup with Booth, Gasol, Ginobili, Jamison and the rest. But I don't worry, I'm sure you'll find a phantom injury for him to keep him stuck on IR before he hurts the Sonics too much. As I said, good luck ...

Erm...Watson played 5 games and a grand total of 84 minutes with you. I wouldn't quite call you the expert I got to 52 wins with Earl as my starting pg. And he was traded to me by..... ding ding ding. The sonics. As for the trade....It was part of the Blazers plan. I don't know why it makes it a good trade, but it was part of the plan.

If part of the plan is to trade one pick for a lower pick, then this plan is working...

I had 3-4 guys higher on my list, was looking for a PG, but they went with 21-25 pick if i'm not wrong, this sucks a bit, 'cause i wanted PG or PF/C actually, but still it's fine, i'll find sub for telf, and hopefully this guy will develop to a very decent backup player, my biggest wish Berkowitz unfortunately went nr.1, so i got PF/SF and SG in draft, now i'm packed with talent on SG/SF position, but well, let's wait FA to see if i can snap some fine C or PF, then things gonna be good
