TRADE: Dinwiddie + Bertans to DAL | KP + 2nd to WAS

Stashing would definitely work. Or a two way deal. That means you have to really like a player though. My point is that a mid to late second round pick is only good if there is someone you really want is going to be available.

If you don’t have a roster spot for a 2nd round rookie, then why not trade the pick for a future second rounder?

Then you could always use two late seconds to move up to an earlier second rounder.  Who knows, maybe you could pick up another second rounder and traded into the late  first round.

There is a lot more creative asset management that should be employed than “meh… we don’t have a spot and the guy we draft will probably be crappy.  Just throw the pick in the deal since it’s worthless”
