Re: SPOILER Draft Thread
Even if we go small:
Bledsoe
Booker
JJ
TJ
Bender or Chriss
We really lack shooting in this 3 ball league.

Re: SPOILER Draft Thread
This is a dup from a thread i started.
Let's pick Jawun Evans and call it a day.
I think he's a steal and gives us a very young and strong 1-5 in terms of potential:
1 - Evans (but I do like Giles, lol)
2- Booker
3 - JJ
4 - chriss
5 - bender
With some young pieces on the bench: Ullis, warren, Allan Williams
I wanted to trade Bledsoe, and I think we would have had our guy been there.....BUT, the silverlining is, next year's draft is supposed to be very weak in terms of point guards.
Maybe his value will be a little higher at the trade deadline or next year's draft. In fact, I think most win now teams are willing to give up better draft picks via trade deadline vs. during draft, I feel they are not enthralled by all the prospect banter.
Maybe knight will even do enough to pull something in return.

Marquese Chriss was interviewed a few minutes ago and he said that he knows that he is gonna play a lot of C next season because the league has changed the last few years.
This five is gonna be so fun to watch:
Bledsoe/Ulis
Booker
JJ
TJ
Chriss

I have a gut feeling we are going to trade for LMA and have a legit shot of making the playoffs. Spurs will go after George Hill and maybe Ibaka or Millsap.

If we run Chriss and Bender at center and run the high screen offense, I like this a bit better as both Chriss and Bender are already outside shot threats and Decent-Good passers.
Then TJ and JJ just need to cut and go the rim.

Re: SPOILER Draft Thread
Still a lot of players on the board that I'd love to have at 32. This is a good draft.

George de Paula with the late 2nd ...big point guard. 7'0" wingspan. Worth a gamble.

Re: SPOILER Draft Thread
A Ulis/JJ/Bender lineup does mean great passing and ball movement. Booker could get a lot of open 3s and Chriss could get a lot of dunks.

It makes a lot of sense. Especially if we absorb the contract. I don't like it. Much rather have Griffin but better than Milsap.
With Pau opting out and trading LMA for air they will have enough for CP3

38% in college, with reports how hard he works on his game you would expect him to be at least a 35% 3pt shooter in the NBA
