Yeah trading up for Ace isn't an easy call when you can stay put and pick Tre. I had Ace ahead of Tre due to size and defense ,but not by much.

Tre's floor is much higher. He is a high IQ player with more polished skills, which are far beyond his years.

It is funny that I posted about Tre so much during the season that The Consiglieri started making fun of me about it, and now he is actually the pick.

The games will definitely be more watchable now. Tre can put on a show.

Keeping an eye on Adou Thiero. Definition of a decent second round project. Reminds me of a mix of Mathurin and Kuminga. Bad shooter, but I like everything else. Only a junior.

I like Thiero, Toohey, Markovic, Penda, Sion James, Kalkbrenner.

Hopefully the move up a few spots to get a real prospect

Theiro and Flemming are the top guys on my board, but I assume they won't go that direction.

With 12 guys coming off the board before we pick, it's virtually impossible to get any kind of fix on who'll be there.

3 guys we might have a shot at it are Johni Broome\, Markovic, & Arthur Kaluma

Would love to grab one of Raynaud, Fleming, Penda, Thiero, Kalkbrenner, or Markovic. Hopefully Dawkins breaks out the war chest of 2nds to move up 8ish spots

The 2nd round of the NBA does not need its own night. Most of these guys never even make the league lol

Really annoying seeing the Suns make some great draft picks.

It doesn't appear to be so, I hope we snag a target in exchange for future 2nd(s)

It's like everyone's drafting off an aggregated mock draft board, no reaches anywhere so far (and why so freaking long between picks, these are 2nd rounders, 80% of them will be totally irrelevant).

Should try posting on mobile if you can. iPhone text to speech. It ain’t a PIF post if it ain’t 30 paragraphs long.
