All we'd have to do is deal Lee and we'd have enough money to sign Kyrie + Kawhi.
Lee, cash for expiring like Bayless (PHI), Jefferson (Indy), etc.

#16 - G Lonnie Walker
#31 - F Isaac Bonga
#36 - F Keita Bates-Diop

2019-2020
G Irving
G Ntilinka
F Bates-Diop
F Leonard
C Porzingis
6. Walker
7. Dotson
8. Bonga
Fill it out with ring chasers.

Walker won't last until #16 IMO.

I wouldn't make that Trade.

Fair enough. Let's take on every single **** 2 year deal possible.

Parsons, #4 for #9, Courtney Lee, Lance Thomas, Trey Burke, Cash Considerations, Future 2nd
-- Grizz get a nice role player in Lee, expiring essentially in LFT and take a flyer on Burke to move down 5 spots.

Kanter opts in after the draft. Knicks trade him to Washington for Ian Mahinmi + 2019 1st Round Pick (Lotto Protected)

#4 - Luka Doncic
#36 - Keita Bates-Diop

Ill trust in the process as long as the process isnt Carter.

This is obviously a deep draft which is good since we pick at 9. My gut tells me Mikal Bridges will be more than just a 3&D role player. Maybe not a perennial All Star, but a 20ppg scorer with elite Defense. All I know is that whoever we draft will be known for their defensive play. I think Mills, Perry, and Fizdale all want that. They will be drafting BPA, but defense will be a huge component of that. There are 2 players that could throw a monkey wrench into this: Porter and Young. I think both will be off the board anyway.

To me its Mikal or Carter. Im not buying the Knox pick yet. Its too risky for the bust potential. If this kid is vastly improving and is killing every workout, then I'm going to be behind the kid if we pick him. But he has to be proving himself on the defensive end. I just think that if Mikal or Carter are still available, one of them will be our pick. Im REALLY hoping both Young and Sexton are drafted before us. Overall, this is a fun draft to follow, very deep, and somewhat unpredictable. I also would not be opposed to trading down with Clips for the right deal. Should be an exciting night on Thursday!

Sounds like a perennial all-star to me.

I like Mikal, Knox, Young as realistic targets at 9.

I'm avoiding getting too attached or excited about anyone yet because I think Perry may have a trick up his sleeve to move up.

Whoever it is better be a really strong rebounder. I hope we draft Jarred Vanderbilt at 36.

Dont count out Walker either

Carter (my guess though he may be below Knox), Knox,Walker then Mikhal

He probably does the deal with the Grizzlies taking on Parsons and takes Doncic at 4. Grizzlies move down one spot and get to dump a bad deal (and likely STILL get to walk away with Triple J or Bagley)! :sigh:

No rumors of us trying to trade up. Right now everyone has us taking Knox

Knicks should take on Parsons and trade #9 plus a future 1st and get Donic.

I mean, if Grizzlies wanted to do that. If only it was so easy.

Not so shameless plug for the best in depth draft content.

Any chance that you can put your own mock draft on there?

I'm working on it. Right now, I'm focusing on getting the reports done. Mocks are cool for what they are, but I like doing the actual analysis itself.

Does anybody actually think Doncic is falling past the Kings? I don't believe the rumors of him falling for a sec.

Luka Doncic is projected to go No. 4 in the latest ESPN Mock Draft. Jonathan Givony was asked about whether that projection will hold up.

"That's how it looks right now, unless somebody trades up," said Jonathan Givony on the Lowe Post Podcast. "Unless one of these really good playoff teams decides (to trade up). "I think the good teams love him. The bad teams hate him. That's what I'm getting so for."

Doncic is as low as No. 8 on some teams boards.

Take for what its worth but a writer from Dallas News said this today....

I see the rumors, but I don't trust them. Luka falling would be dumb as **** for the Kings and the Hawks.
