This is a joke study.

They list Vladimir Radmonvic as having 2 commericials from the SuperSonics - except the 2nd one is actually Peja Drobjnak. Oh hoopshype, stick to posting twitter feeds/rumors...

Lol nice find, although it's stlil probably accurate in the sense that we really don't have many players on commercials. That's probably still factual.

I would do this deal, hopefully the small foward is at least on the same level as Batum which I'm guessing he is since I'm not as high on him as others.

Two future first-round draft picks. Yes :)

Those could be nice picks.

Probably mid to late 1st round if Love and Rubio stay healthy. Is Rubio expected to be back at the beginning of next season?

No way. They have to win 10 more games then last season to be even the last team out of the playoffs.

They were on the verge of making the playoffs until Rubio went down. Then they tanked. On the flip side they may miss Beasley's production. Batum could help them a bit, but probably not significantly.

I could say the same argument that they were playing better than they really are for the first half of the season. Love is at his peak, they have some youth, but outside of Rubio I don't expect anyone to substantially improve. They will be 7th to 10th best team in the West. Worst case, we get a mid-late teens pick. I expect 10-15 range tbh.

As long as they are the next two years I'd do it. I hate trading for picks way out in the future. Portland needs one for next year anyway cause I think they traded next years pick to someone if I remember correctly.

Sounds as if JJ Hickson may have signed a 1-year deal to return.

No, that injury usually takes a year to recover... and even then he won't be back to his true form for awhile.

Unless Brandon Roy comes back unhindered by his knees... then I think Minny will likely be a lottery team.

I think the top 8 teams in the west will likely be the same as last year... Denver and Dallas are the only two teams that I think could potentially see falling out.
