I'm a little annoyed Kupchak already saying we need to draft stash 2nds, are young players really that difficult to have around??

though maybe trading for 2 more 2nds portends a sea change

any way agree with others on Duval; Gary Trent Jr and Malik Newman for their 3 pt shooting?

I agree with this totally. I was going to post this yesterday. To me it doesn't show you are serious about building and not doing your scouting to the fullest. Stop saving money and start trying to build a contender

If we do make a trade and send Kemba somewhere then I think it makes sense to draft at least one stash guy.

We would probably have 4 picks, and then count bacon and monk. 6 guys that need development and playing time? Doesn’t make sense.

That could be Kosta, Sanon, kulboka, Kurucs,Musa,Bonga, or even Okobo...

It's better than trading all 2nd round picks. Baby steps.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Fun fact: this is the 2nd time Brooklyn has traded us a 2018 2nd round pick. The first time was during the 2015 draft when we sent them the rights to Juan Vaulet, which was quickly flipped for Lamb.

I'd like to package the picks to get into the top 40, as that's traditionally the money range for second round picks. Guys I like: De'anthony Melton, Landry Shamet, Shake Milton, Dzanan Musa, Keita Bates-Diop.

Much as he is despised, Grayson Allen would fit on our second unit well if Lamb starts
Monk- Allen- MKG - Marv - Willy isn’t too bad
Plus
Kemba- Lamb- Batum - Frank - Cody
And our 11 pick

I would love to take Grayson with our second rounder.
