There's gonna be a good player on the board at 25. Don't screw this up :lol:

Traore means another player will fall. Miami probably takes Richardson now

Who cares? Offense is beyond inept and you worry about defense.


Watch the NBA finals, and tell me if this guy could have played in that game (once hes fuily reached his potential). If the answer is no, which it is given he would be repeatedly exposed on D, then why take him? We are in the business of winning a championship, not winning games in November. You are only as strong as your weakest link on D, and this guy is a turnstile on D.

If you are expecting a #25 pick to fix our scoring woes, you probably need to adjust your expectations a bit.
