But we dropped down in the Luka draft, so if we had been better we might have been the team to jump up to the 2nd pick and not even need to trade to draft him.
That is an interesting timeline. If we draft Mitchell, do we suck badly enough in 2018 to draft Luka? Do we still send him to NY in the KP deal?
We probably wouldn't trade for KP unless 3 draft picks was enough to get him. In which case we would have kept our draft pick in Luka's rookie year. Maybe we get lucky and draft Tyler Herro. Luka/Mitchell/Herro would be a nice young core.
