TRADE: ORL Gets Desmond Bane | MEM Gets KCP+Cole Anthony +4 FRPs

Traded Bane for a better package than the Mavs got for Luka. Unbelievable.

I am not advocating for the value received in the Luka trade - not sticking up for it. But, that package is NOT better than what the Mavs got. Those 4 firsts, from a good team in the EAST, are going to be worthless, especially now with the college money making the end of the first round even less likely to yield good players. Comparatively, I'd much rather have that ONE Lakers pick from down the road, because I think they're going to be bad by then, not good. I really hope the Mavs don't trade that pick, or at least get something good in return if they do. 

The other part of the conversation that Mavs fans don't acknowledge is the AD was worth a few 1sts, himself, so that's value that "cancelled out" some picks in the exchange, at least in the minds of those making the deal. I think Harrison should've gotten more value, and have said so, but I would MUCH rather have the LA to DAL package than the ORL to MEM package. I think this is an overreaction on your part.
