Mavs acquire Nerlens Noel

[buzzy]

Andrew Bogut, Justin Anderson and a top 18 protected 2017 pick.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

That's a lot to give back for Noel

 

[buzzy]

I don't know, the fact that it's top 18 protected, it's kind of shit.
They're gonna buy out Bogut anyway I assume

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Great trade for Philly

 

[Hurricane Season]

Top 18 protected?
 
This is a pretty shit haul, tbh

What more would you want for Noel?

 

[buzzy]

Maybe something tangible? No way Dallas picks 19 or later

 

[bosoxlover12]

It's probably going to end up Top 10 protected in 2018, and thats a good pick for Philly
 
Noel is gonna be an RFA, and command over $20M/yr for a guy who cant shoot, and isn't the best center on his team. Getting any first was a good trade for the Sixers
 
Mavs are gonna have near $50M/yr committed to Nerlens Noel and Harrison Barnes lol

Yeah they're going to get a pick eventually right? I guess we don't know the specific protections on it

I wasn't aware it was that highly protected. Basically a fake first rounder.

 

[Pugz]

this is a total dallas move

 

[buzzy]

I guess it's gonna end up being like a 12-17 pick next year. Probably still top 10 protected.
 
If It's unprotected next year it's definitely worth it

 

[bosoxlover12]

Ew, its just protected this year. Becomes two 2nds otherwise

 

[buzzy]

That's shit

 

[Hurricane Season]

I no longer trust the process.

 

[buzzy]

Hinkie turning in his grave

 

[BNC]

Colangelo doing his best to ruin everything Hinkie did

 

[CameronCrazy06]

I really don't think they could've gotten a whole lot more

 

[buzzy]

Late first would have been okay.

Besides, I'd have still liked to see Noel and Embiid for a longer period if time. They have played 8 minutes together.

Could have been a pretty good defensive front court.

 

[Mexi]

Literally the worst thing adam silver will ever do is force the sixers to bring in Jerry colangelo

Bryan should be nowhere near making moves

Hinkie fucking died in vain
