I’m good with either


Still deciding between Cason Wallace at #13 or moving back, obviously depending on who is back there.

We really need to get an extra pick in the draft, preferably to pair Cason Wallace with more of a homerun pick--like Bilal.

Cason gets rid of FVV and Bilal provides the young wing/SG we need for the future. Hopefully Pascal is the one who is dealt for the picks and young talent piece.

There are opportunities for a Pascal deal if Masai wants.

I'd look to draft a wing player and possibly sign that OTE kid playing in Spain currently.

Bona looks interesting as a late pick. I'd be happy walking away from the draft with him and Bufkin.

I'd like to come out with both.

OG for Pacers lottery 1st and one of their late 1sts.

13th + late 1st for 8-10 pick.

Pick both.

It's looking like Wallace might not even be there at 13. Most likely won't

Almost assuredly won't, it's a pipe dream.

Julian Champagnie hasn't been able to crack a roatation. I think Jake Laravia could play more next year.

Koloko has potential to develop a 3 but might take another 2-3 years. I wonder if he's shooting 500 per day?

Part of me wants the same. Jean Montero played well in Spain as a 19 YO showing real passing vision and has a shifty Darius Garland type of game. It opens Toronto to a wider range of options - one of which is to get bigger.

Honestly I am thinking about Derek Lively as our Jarrett Allen type of C. Lively should not be closed off to us because of Poeltl if you think he has DPOY potential which on defense he does and he is a better rim target on offense.

Trade Siakam for a SG like Jordan Poole or Shaedon Sharpe or Amfernee Simons or Jalen Green. Having a frontline of Lively/Barnes/Anunoby is so strong defensively, that you can get away with weaker guards who can play bigger scoring roles.

Wouldnt surprise me if he goes in 26-35 range. Would be a nice fit on Raps team.

Rupert is not a physical specimen with that vertical. Probably not in the same ballpark as Bilal who really gets up there.
