I had the same feeling about the trade. I think it's close, just looking at the current roster changes, but the draft pick gave Minnesota the edge.
My money's on Edwards as the next face of the league, unless Wemby has enough charisma in English to snatch it away from the Americans.
I don't like that draft pick as much as I did last night. It's from Detroit. Top 13 protected next draft. Top 11 protected in 26. Top 9 protected in 27. I don't know if Detroit will be good at any point in the next few years but if they are the most you can likely expect is a mid first rounder. Still not a bad asset but not as huge a get as I expected when I heard a pick from Detroit.

That's true, but one bad lottery ball bounce in the next three years could get them a nice draft pick.
