What should we do with the 6th & 11th pick?

ogmagicfan · Post #1 » by **ogmagicfan** » Wed May 17, 2023 1:55 am

There's alot we can do considering the position we're in, and that the teams that have the 2nd & 3rd pick both have star PGs already. Moving up to get Scoot is very doable.

If we do trade 6 & 11, what trade packages do yall think would be enough?

I think 6, 11, Cole/Fultz, & a 2nd Rounder could be enough.

I wouldn't be surprised to see it be a 3 team trade, especially if we trade with Portland since they wanna win now

They are keeping their picks, I just don't think the 6th and 11th pick for the 2nd or 3rd is possible.

I agree that 6 & 11 isn't enough, but lets say the Magic fall in love with Scoot during the pre-draft process.

That would compell them to add additional assets, maybe a protected 1st next yr, and/or a young prospect of ours in a trade

A Rookie will struggle for playing time on this roster and trading one pick makes a great deal of sense.

There is a projection of a very active trade market. The Magic need a starting SG. Together, this sounds a lot like the Magic will e active on the phones.

This could lead to a #11, Okeke and G-Harris for Jordan Poole type trade.

Personally I don't like this at all. But I think it is the sort of thing I expect.

No, but 6/11/Suggs or Anthony might be.

I don’t deny that. Admittedly not a huge LaMelo fan and especially not for Suggs.

If Portland decides to keep Dame they want an all-star for the 3rd pick not more draft picks.

I don't know why Charlotte would trade their pick when they can pair it with Ball unless they really hate Scoot or Miller (which I can't imagine) and prefer someone at 6 while getting the 11th pick, why trade?

Switch it to Anthony and I'd do it

Not a fan of LaMelo either

If we trade with Portland, there will have to be a 3rd team involved

I'd be very enticed, and would most likely pull the trigger

PG: Lamelo, Fultz
SG: Suggs, Harris
SF: Franz, Houstan
PF: Paolo, Isaac
C: Williams, Goga

Still having all of our 1sts from 2024 onwards also

ogmagicfan · Post #18 » by **ogmagicfan** » Thu May 18, 2023 3:03 am

Lamelo is a perfect fit on the team.

He's a high volume 3 pt shooter (3rd in the league in 3's made per game at 4.0 last szn). He's a great passer, great rebounder, good defender, and is 21 years old.

Where are the posters who love tall players to stand with us for acquiring a proven 6'7 PG Star?

thelead · Post #20 » by **thelead** » Thu May 18, 2023 3:48 am

You watch pros like Jimmy and Jokic lead their teams to deep playoff runs and we want to bring in LaMelo to lead the team? :lol:

I wouldn’t trust him to lead this team to where we want to go…. And he has injury concerns at this point.

With the 6th & 11th pick we should..
