I am sure that is the same if we keep #10 where that pick could bust. But i just feel like we are playing the middle ground in a trade like that (I like the idea of playing the middle in previous discussions) but I think this leaves us potentially not good enough for now, and lacking the young good developmental pieces moving forward. Sort of no mans land.
Why am I wrong? Would like to hear others disagreements.
Thing is, this is a nine-player draft, with 1) several additional players with promise outside that nine, and 2) several rumors of the teams above us reaching on a pick.
Why not just pick at 10 and make sure you get this year's Donovan Mitchell instead of this year's DSJ?
