It is a sucky rule, but it sure adds to the drama when Silver comes out to announce a pick and says: "We have a trade."

It's been that way forever.


4:56 = Webber is a Magic
17:12 = Hardaway is a Warriors
29:00 = trade announced

you sure do seem to have a lot of time on your hands to be on this forum? Do you have a job? Are you a shut-in?

Interesting. I feel like I've heard commentators in the last couple of years during the show mention that a team might be shopping a pick while they're on the clock.

Well yeah you can still make a trade it's just for the rights to a guy rather than the pick itself.

It doesn't really matter other than what hats guys wear when they are drafted.

Ford released mock 10.1 around 3pm, and now he released 10.2 around 4:15. FFS

Ford says Toronto may take Labissiere at #9 if none of the top players fall to them

Probably to prevent situations where a trade is made, and then the pick clock needs to be reset. My guess it's for TV production simplicity.

Stein says Phoenix is still considering Bender at #4, though most think they take Chriss
