In our draft range atm looks like the players available are

Keyonte George
Kobe Bufkin
Leonard Miller
GG Jackson
Brice Sensabaugh
Sidy Cissoko

Bilal Coulibaly as a trade down scenario...

Atm id be fine with either George or Bufkin.

You mean like the one that recently died?

Since George and Bufkin seem to be the general consensus, I think it's safe to say we aren't picking either of them lol.

Bobby going guarantees 13 or 14

Orlando Magic really about to have 2 top 10 lotto picks to pair beside Paolo and Franz.

I'm sick lol.

Selling high on your assets is smart management. Pascal is a lot like Vuc in that they’re very good but can’t lead a team anywhere too far. Selling high makes sense.

Jordan Walsh, who I think is the most athletic, best defensive players in the draft absolutely killed at the Combine:

Shooting for a guy that didn't have great numbers at Arkansas, but today he shocked people:
No. 1 Side-mid-side 18/30 (60%)
No. 3 spot-up shooting at 16-of-25 (64.0%)
No. 6 3PT Star Drill 12/25 (48%)

Athletically he is in a special tier:
No. 6 standing vert: 33.0"
No. 5 max vert: 36.0"
No. 3 pro lane drill: 10.83 secs

It is just a set of tests and we will have to see if he scrimmages and works out for teams, but he is going to put himself back on the NBA radar with this.

Paolo and Franz is not a championship duo. Lol.

But great opportunity for them to add more young talent to that team.

Andre Jackson without the playmaking?

Bilal's spot up form is identical to Mikal Bridges lol. It's eerie.

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.

If we can pull of 2 picks this draft I will forgive the front office for all their past mistakes

Yup.

Idea of trading down for him and finding him there is not happening. The only question is will he be available at 13.

Should be. I see Leonard Miller going before him.

I don’t know. Utah, Orlando, and OKC all in position to take a huge swing.

Miller is the exact type of player that Orlando, OKC and Raptors would draft. Length, height and motor.

Bilal will be there at 13, I'm sure of it.

OKC taking Leonard Miller would be a nice fit.

Miller
