Yours was extreme, and I am sure you're well aware of that.
Trading a 2nd once, to get a player that you think fills a need is not even remotely close to suggesting you should do it all the time.
Every team ends up keeping, and drafting with, the vast majority of their picks. A few will work out.
Oil Stain tried to set a ridiculous bar on Lazar, one that can't be justified by the facts.
I posted a valid response to him, based on facts.
YOu took my post to the extreme, which is simply brutal logic.
