I know Raps picked Gradey and maybe it was not a "raptors" pick but I think they liked his offensive upside and size.. needs to grow into his body which is what is hurting him. The Raps are for sure going to pick a 2 way guy. I think I'm buying the smoke on KM. JP is just too valuable for us and when he's out, we have no answer. KM will fit a need and Masai knows this kid's upside better than anyone. I do think he will be there now that Noa's measurements have come out.
I agree KM is the pick for me, such a huge drop off in defense when jack is off the floor. We just also need to get a stretch big off the bench somehow as well.
I don't like a Poeltl/Maluach combo. I think you need 1 big space eater and one smallball C. These playoffs are a good example. You need the option for playoff match-ups, but you can't put too many resources for either. Unless Maluach can anchor an offense I don't want him at 9.
Poeltl’s going into his last year and it’ll likely take $30m a year (Jarrett Allen money) to extend him. I wouldn’t have him in pen on the depth chart for the next few years. Finding a replacement would be more than fine.
