Kid was one of my 5 who i wanted at #39

Kid is a crazy athlete, a DAWG on defense, and he can shoot the 3.

Love this pick.

If this is true it'd have to be for a starter level guard. Not sure who that would be

He seems like a good culture setting player. We need someone here who won a title. He's going to push our wings for minutes. He's a good prospect to put behind our higher picks. I'm glad they'll be pressured into improving.

A trade needs to be made for a backup C with the amount of guards we have


I think thats where RJ comes into play. They will trade him to take a backup c and free up some cap space. So it would need to be a team, that has capspace to offer.



Who’s on the trade block on who would want to take RJ? Please no Alex Len

Like what the Raptors are doing. They must have loved what Mitchell, Walter and Shead did for this team last season. They're going for blue chip guys who are dawgs. I'm hoping this influences Barnes to start being more aggressive with his strength

Kinda, sorta.

Same toughness. Same streakiness. Same hops. Same length.
