Terrence Ross. He can come off screens, shoot the ball and defend. Easily the best perimeter/wing player available.

Brandon Jennings, Monta Ellis and Austin Rivers all on the Bucks. That doesn't seem likely.

trade Lopez for SF, pick Fab Melo with #13. Underdog of this Draft. New Mutombo, slighty better
offensively.

No Lambs or Rivers? :(

If this is the case, I'd rather take a reach on Tony Wroten.

If they decide sf, I think I'd go for Quincy Miller. I like Moe, but I think Miller is being vastly underrated. Of course, Miller wasn't on this list.

DO NOT WANT.

He is a SG/SF that is masquerading as a PG because he CANNOT SHOOT THE BALL. The only thing he has going for him is athleticism and size, but that size is because he is really a SG/SF and NOT A PG.

This is another reason I like Ross. I think had he played with a guy like Kendall Marshall he would have been much better. Wroten liked to score though, but yes, he can't really shoot from the outside (16% from three). Wroten only averaged 3.7 ast in college, so it's not like Ross was getting set up for a ton of wide open shots like he could possibly get in our offense.

mmmkay... look if the only thing he has to work on is his jumper then that's pretty good. I'm sure Thunder Dan could teach the kid to shoot.

And who says you had to know how to shoot to be a good PG? (i.e. Rajon Rondo)

I voted for Ross... Although if Rivers is still on the board, I wouldn't mind taking him either.

One thing I do hope is that we make a move to grab another pick or two and pick up a Moe Harkless or Quincy MIller. Too much talent to pass up.

Terrence Ross. Yes, I think he is a future role player; likely a #3 option, IMO. He provides shooting, athleticism, and defense from the SG position, which is all that you really can ask for if you have a good PG (We will get one within the next two years, believe me. It likely won't be Nash or D-Will, but next year's draft class is stacked). Your SG doesn't have to create their own shot; not many teams have both a very good shooting guard and a very good point guard, which is why I would not have been upset at all if the Lakers were able to land Chris Paul in a trade. The trade that they almost did would have left them essentially with Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, and Andrew Bynum, and their best post player (Gasol) would be gone. Chris Paul and Kobe Bryant need to have the ball in their hands (at all times) to produce: there is only one basketball. Terrence Ross is not the type of SG that needs to have the ball at all times. He will give you a good shooter running off of screens/waiting on the perimeter, as well as an admirable defender on the other end who can make exciting plays happen.

PG - FA for 1-year deal?
SG - Ross
SF - Dudley
PF - Morris
C - Gortat

That lineup is good enough that we probably wouldn't be getting Shabazz Muhammad or Nerlens Noel in next year's draft, but we would still likely have a mid-high lottery pick. A PG that intrigues me at the top of next year's class is Kyle Anderson: a 6'8" all-around point guard with a comparable skillset to Magic Johnson. Also likely available a little later in next year's draft will be Myck Kabongo, Isaiah Canaan, Aaron Craft, and Peyton Siva.

How is Rivers not on the poll?

:D

But yea he would be my choice. He's Doc's son and being just that would sure give us some much needed media attention.
