Adams, hands down. Will give us size, athleticism, defense and rebounding right away and possibly more if he develops (especially with Ewing in the fold). Bigs like this are always in demand. Little PGs that aren't terribly athletic, not so much.

I went with KCP. Could use a shooter with size on the team.

Sticking with Bazz... though it was a tough choice between he and Adams.

Not to mention Burke at 9 would be a great trade piece.

How much of a great trade piece would Burke be really? In a league flush with young, starting point guards?

I'm not saying take him fourth. But if we traded to ninth or lower and he's still there, surely we could dangle him in front of a PG needy team like Utah. And in this scenario I'd still likely take Bazz or Adams like I said, but I'd probably do it if we could reach an agreement and picked for them. It's a pipedream, but Kanter would sure be nice...

Kentavius Caldwell Pope...

See how bad this draft gets in a hurry...... and this is 9th. Now do you understand why I am against trade with Minny

There is no way Utah is dangling something of value to get Burke when Shane Larkin is just as available and really not that less talented.

It's a "What if?" scenario, and Utah was just an example. I've made it clear that I wouldn't take Burke in the top 10 unless someone made an offer. It's just speculation.

I said Bazz, just b/c I think he already has an NBA scorers mentality, hopefully the rest of his game can round out.
