Re: 2023 Draft Discussion Part 5
I'd really like to trade back with Utah....
Some on the same guys we like are going to be there at 16. And get a guy like Jones, Sasser, Bailey, Podz, Jaime Jaquez at 27

DC could be such a huge basketball market and FA draw but ted leonsis has mismanaged basically everything.
Their last 6 first round picks have been busts and Cason is from Texas. I'm scratching my head at why this would be a dream come true.
Perhaps fit. Wizards desperately need a point guard and maybe Wallace sees himself as a seemless fit there and can start from day 1.

What sort of asset would be required to jump from 13 to 11? Would something like Precious be enough? Not a great fit with the Magic unfortunately
Precious, Boucher and #13 for Hardaway and #10. We let Trent go, Dallas moves #13 and Bertans for the best frontcourt player they can find and prays that Precious never having to dribble the ball and focusing on defence leads to him becoming a solid starter.
Poeltl-Siakam-Barnes-OG-VanVleet
bench is Koloko, OPJ, Dick, HardawayJR and the MLE is either a big or a backup PG depending on how much Masai likes Flynn I guess.
I get the feeling that Mavs are hunting bigger fish with teh 10th pick. Precious and Boucher don't move the needle for them.
Not a chance we move off Precious to move up 3 spots.

lol you're much higher on Precious than most people.
Would you move down to 16 to take on an undersized center that had a 53 TS%?

Unable to watch this set of scrimmages, but he may have played himself from solid 2nd rounder to not being invited to Summer League.

So, day 2 after the lottery, Miller is a lock to go to CHA at 2, but is out of shape and not interviewing well.

Definitely sounds like a fit with Bridges.

We already have identified all the busts in the 1st round, no room for any more.

Re: 2023 Draft Discussion Part 5
I think we should consider OG for 4. OG would be a perfect fit w Harden, they have to prove they want to win now to get him. OG is a position need and doesn't make much so he keeps cap space open. Amen doesn't fit w houston.
imo Amen could end up being the best player in the draft. History says wemb is injury prone, Scoot is small and can't shoot, Miller's ceiling is more of a 2 maybe 3rd best guy.
Amen learns to shoot(which he has shown improvements throughout the season) look out

Talent wise I don’t see any reason why he should…but character and you’re bringing him into “super swag” LaMelo Zoolander Ball and *ahem* when keeping it real goes wrong Miles Bridges, True the skreetz Scary Terry. Let’s just say not exactly the “culture” I think someone who has his own personal red flags should be joining.
I mean there is the choice of a franchise PG who all I’ve ever heard is people RAVING what a gym rat and competitor Scoot is but that doesn’t sound like something the WOAT owner MJ would be interested in lol

I've seen a few mock drafts where Cason slides to us at 13 and I don't understand it. That would be a dream scenario for this team if he slides to 13.

I'm a bit concerned about Wallace's back issues. I know we have Alex Mac but having back problems already at age 19 sounds like it could be a problem like with McGrady.

At this point, I would be very surprised if Cason slides past Washington at #8. They need defense, they need a PG, and he's arguably BPA at that spot anyway.
