I think Deuce has been good enough they're not gonna trade him for a guy they just picked up in the 2nd, but I don't think both can coexist long term because we have DDV off the bench, and he's too small to play SF, and that would make Hart the full time backup PF, which is also super small

If we had a creative coach it could work, but Thibs isn't creative with his lineups.

You can't say our drafts aren't entertaining.

I don’t think this means we trade Deuce. We need like 3 second round players .

Everyone keeps saying TJ McConnell, but he plays more like a Mark Price to me.

he's already 23...teams think you lose more development years but we have had success with older guys like Grimes and Duece

I admit it, I wanted Knox due in part to his young age.
Worse yet, I was afraid of Bridges upside due to his.

Never lose hope.

tough, great passer, great C&S (doesn't really shoot off the dribble.

Got some toughness competitor. I saw a interview with vecinie on how he improved his shooting he basically said go to the gym late at night...I'm sure that made our guys start drooling.

Cassidy Hubbarth makes this process more palatable

And Deuce is a combo guard and defender, agree.

The great thing about OKC is that they always overpay.

If we keep the pick I want the dude from UCLA. He’s undersized for a center but he plays bigger than he is and he has an intense motor. Think he’d be a great glue guy.

Is he closer to Reed Shepperd than Ron Baker/Andy Rautins?

He's a pure PG

Doesn't really score a ton, but can run an offense and distribute (averaged 7 apg over 3 seasons at Marquette). Was relatively efficient on low volume too. Not an noteworthy defender

Good pick at 34.
