I'll start this one a few hours earlier than intended with Towns getting the overwhelming majority of the votes. That wasn't unexpected, but there should be some interesting results going forward. The most poll options you can have at one time is ten so I'll list nine prospects along with the other option from here on out.

Who's your pick for the #2 player on Detroit's big board?

Current Results:

1. Karl Towns
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

Russell

Porzingis

Easy for me. I picked Russel as #1, he should win this poll going away,bi would think.

Probably should strt poll #3 soon OP

Should be more controversy on number 3....

Russell, the guy that will be the best player in this draft imo.

I voted for Russell but wish I'd voted for the player I'm voting third next round. Not that it would have mattered.

Why are we down on Okafor?
Replacing Monroe at starting PF/acquiring a legitimate backup C has to be more of a priority than acquiring another guard when we have Jackson/Jennings/KCP (and Meeks) ((and Dinwiddie)) in the backcourt, right?

I think most are fine with a year of Ersan and Tolliver at worst manning the PF positions...
It's really important especially with this draft class that we find a long term answer at SF our weakest position currently..

I voted Russell number 1 since I think he will be the best player in this draft. I like Okafor more than most, I see him as a lesser rebounding Demarcus Cousins but he is a pure center which is why it makes sense to look at wings before him. I will vote for him 3rd though.

Okafor can't play PF.

Okafors pretty much a carbon copy of Monroe, and the RJ/Moose/Dre lineup didnt look very promising in the short time they played together last year.

I dont consider Jennings or Meeks part of the long term plan, and a 3 guard rotation of RJ/KCP/Russ would have a lot of potential.
