Lock it or delete it if you want. I don't see this team turning around anything anytime soon.

if we don't draft someone named Diop I'm out!

Without a trade soon I agree.

Who do you want the most?

sounds like a good Cho project

Ilimane Diop (’95, 7-0, C, Spain, Caja Laboral)

Diop has played on a constant basis with Caja Laboral senior team since last season, with some impressive performances even at the Euroleague level. As a legit seven footer he has a massive wingspan and great mobility for his height, combined with above average footwork. Beyond this he’s still a project offensively, since his shot is still raw from a mechanics standpoint, plus he needs to develop more strength and awareness in the post. Defensively he’s already an intimidator with his length and wingspan, combined with good timing and a sense of position. This ye

My dont want list so far (not looking at the elite prospects until its clear we can get one)

-Willie Cauley-Stein
-Rondae Hollis-Jefferson


Players i like

-Caris LeVert
-Frank Kaminsky
-Myles Turner

I wouldn't mind Mario Hezojna when we're drafting at #18 this year

I want Jefferson to leave, and somehow land the number 1 pick to land Jahlil Okafor. He is great offensively, and although hes no Dwight Howard defensively hes no slouch either.

Okafor is the only guy I like for us in this draft, and landing him is extremely unlikely so eff to the no for losing enough to get in position to have a chance at him.

Way things are going were going to lose anyway, may as well pray that some luck finally goes our way.

I assume Cleveland will somehow get the #1 pick even if they arent in the lottery.

If we did not land the first pick I would have to see where we are and consider trading. I like Cauley-Stein and Towns from Kentucky as future centers.

If we're going this route we've gotta do it right:

IR MKG
Trade Al for draft picks
Trade Marvin for a Dirk cutout
Reinstate JT, and while we're at it sign Greg Hardy
#BringBackTheMully
Secure top 5 draft pick
Combine with Al picks to move up as high as possible and take Okafor or Towns.

Could you guys imagine us getting a top 5 pick, Walker and Stephenson suddenly learn to co exist, plus cap space?

I could also imagine Kemba, Lance, MKG, Zeller, Biyombo, a top 20 pick, and cap space learning to co-exist as well.

I can't. Need more long range shooting. But thats another topic for another thread. But I honestly think that we need to move either Kemba or Lance for a player who is at least a competent shooter and someone who doesn't need the ball in their hand. Kyle Korvar would be perfect, but hes getting up their as far as age goes. Just using him as an example/

We really just need to stagger the starters (namely Kemba, MKG, and Lance) so that at most times in the game, one or two of those three is on the bench, and we have a good shooting with them for spacing. I'm happy with the core (the Al situation is a completely different animal) but we need big time shooters behind them. Need to go after guys like Crawford or Korver hard. I would trade for Ilyasova at PF as well and let the defense figure itself out.

Id love Korver here. Always loved his game, and hes actually a half decent defender as well.

If we get a top 3 pick and Mudiay (Okafor and Towns are gone) is there i would take him i think, move Kemba to his should be role of 6th man

Mudiay has struggled in the CBA, but that has to be tough for an 18 year old playing with guys who can't speak english. Has to have a translator there for the coach to communicate with him as well.

My tank job:

Trade Al + Marvin + Hendo to the Knicks for Stoudamire and Dalembert and let them work out an extension with Al.

Look to move up with the Pistons since they have no use for big men - Towns or Okafor.

Sign Afflalo after he opts out.

Kemba/Roberts
Lance/Hairston
MKG/Afflalo
Zeller/Vonleh
Okafor or Towns/Biz
