Holmes supposedly has a promise from Denver.

Bona is my guy at 30. Wouldn’t mind Tyson, Mogbo or Dadiet there either

I don't know how it;s gonna work with him and Castle on the same team though.

Castle said several times in the media leading up to the draft that he wants to play PG.

Dillingham is gonna want to play PG.

Why would they draft 2 guys in the top 8 picks who will both want to play PG?

Should have picked 1 of them..and then the other pick, go with a wing or a 4..


Wait, he's going to MIN?

A shooter is my guess. Scheierman, Antonio Reeves, Kyshawn George etc.

Seems like poor value for Spurs. Those are going to be in the twenties.

In this weak draft, it may end up being a good pick. While teams can target him on defense, he is almost unstoppable in the paint.

That's all it took to get that high? I guess Wolves have more crash and burn potential than the Cs, but I would have done that easily. Not taken Dillingham, but still.

That makes sense. Can’t see Spurs wanting a PG that doesn’t defend.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."

Just remember I was a fan of zach way before anyone thought he would be even drafted.. Not saying he should have been the ninth pick but.. You cannot teach that massive size..
2 things need to go.. my lack of spell check and Joe.. :nod:

Ehhh, 7 years from now KAT will be 35 and Gobert will be out of the league. Who knows what those will be.
