Trade Lauri for The 3rd Pick

Or, just to summarize the feeling on JazzFanz after the lottery:

It's the perfect time of year
Somewhere far away from here
I feel fine enough, I guess
Considering everything's a mess...
 
Why not call nico for the 1st pick? If he's serious about a championship window in the next 2-3 year to maximize AD/Kyrie/Klay, Lauri fits their timeline more than Cooper.

Cooper is not a good fit on this mavs team. Terrible spacing. Zero playmaking. Cooper has to force his way through a broken offense. Not saying it can't be done but it's gonna take time and they can kiss their "championship window" goodbye.

Because they can get better than Lauri if they trade #1. I think Giannis to Dallas could seriously be in play.

Kyrie is out nearly all of next season so it’s AD Thompson and Flagg
 
I think after #2 its a complete crap shoot. I dont think you are building a contender from 3&5 in this draft. You're about as likely to do it with 5 and 21, IMO.
i disagree. you have a much better shot at hitting on the draft with the higher picks. i would definitely do this to increase our odds. #2 or 3 definitely a better chance at being a building block then #21. not sure what you're thinking. and trading Lauri gives us the opportunity to tank w/o retribution next year...

The diff between 2 (Harper) and 3 is big for me. So, sure, id love 2 and 5.

I think there are guys that could pop at 21 as much as a dude at 3. Thats my thoughts. Feel free to think im a moron.
 
I like the idea of the Sixers trade, just don't think it's likely that they do it. I also like the Spurs trade, and maybe that would work if they lose out on Giannis. I'm definitely think we need to trade Lauri now, and we need as many swings as possible at these high potential picks in the 2-5 range.
