What would the roster look like if we had kept all our picks since 2011?

Does anyone know who we could have drafted from 2011-2013. I know jimmy butler was available in 2011 but we traded our pick to New Jersey. I don't remember the details of that trade. Can someone explain?

Too many moving parts to assume we'd be prescient enough to draft a guy like butler. Don't pain yourself thinking about the what ifs.

On top of that, most of the picks were already deal before end. Some were part of our championship run. So it would be hard to see a what if situation.

Also I am pretty sure a lot of team didn't like Butler, so what make you think the FO would have picked him.

Traded the pick with Sasha to New Jersey for Joe Smith. Sasha was expiring anyways. In other words a pointless and terrible trade.

And if I recall correctly, Sasha did well on the Nets. It was stupid. Should have kept him and the pick, sign Sasha to a cheap multi-year deal, and be done with it.

I miss Sasha, not for the player he was (though he was a beast in 08), but for his heart. He cared. He was a winner. Since then we've signed losers (Nick Young) and busts (Jordan Hill, Wes Johnson). What our team needs is a core of guys dedicated to winning. It doesn't have to be superstars, as Cleveland demonstrates.
