Is he a point guard?

why do u want an average PG when u can have a All star SF?

an all star sf? Maybe the guy should get drafted first...

i hope minnesota continues with their fetish for power forwards and takes sullinger at 18, and they pass on get over their fetish for 3-4 combo's and let PJ3 slide to us

PJ3 is my pick if there but I just pray he doesn't turn out to be the right handed version of Anthony Randolph.

Randolph just needs a chance to play. His defense is way better than PJ3's too.

But yeah, I do see a similarity in their attitudes. They give off a bit of a lazy impression at times.

I would be ecstatic if we got the right handed version of Anthony Randolph with the 19th pick in the draft

No denying Randolph has skill, but the guy has already been on 3 teams in 4 years & is still a project.

I'd much rather get a guy that can play in this league, otherwise we are better off trading the pick to unload a contract and sign Randolph as very cheap FA if we're that interested.

I think Nelson is opting out regardless of the New GM or not.....so we might have to draft a PG....if that is the case we should draft Wroten.....He might not have the shooting that will translate to the NBA just yet but he has the size and athleticism.....plus the ball-handling and court vision of a true point.....He could be our Rodney Stuckey and you guys know how much Rodney has killed us in the past.....6"6 point guard? he's a walking mismatch....he would be able to out-muscle most PG in the NBA right now on sheer size.....But most of all his redeeming feature is his potential he has the potential to be some kind of mix of Tyreke and Rondo......Plus i believe he worked out for us so he's on our radar......

At SF the pick should either be Perry Jones or Quincy Miller imo you can't go wrong either way.....both has been said to have lottery talent but both have critical flaws.....Perry Jones main weakness is his motor/desire for the game.....did a lot of coasting in college from what i hear....got by on talent....Quincy's is his ACL injury....can he get back athletically to what he was? both of them has sky high potential....it's going to be interesting what direction we go towards in the coming days.......

I would really like to see us acquire a late 1st from like the Thunder. It seems either Quincy or Wroten will fall to that spot so at 19 draft Quincy (or PJ3 if there) & with the other late 1st draft Wroten.

We get some nice YOUNG players with big time upside.

If we honestly walked away with both PJ3 & Wroten I would go INSANEEEEEEEE

I like the idea of trading for Thunder's pick, but what can we offer to them? They dont wanna spend any money, so we need to offer a future 1st, but that's too much a gamble, imagine if D12 leaves, so we would basically give them a Top5 pick for a late 1st. That's a Otis kind of job

Cash considerations & future 2nd I think could get it done.

Forgot we traded our 2nd last year so we can't this year right?

Not sure what could get a trade done for the 28th if that's the case. Some Disney tickets?

That's the one I had in mind a few days ago

We could draft who they want at 49 and then announce the trade

Yes, i think so, we could even draft an International player, so they can keep him overseas without having to pay him.

BTW, Deron would like the Disney tickets...

Ahhh thanks for the info bud.

I hope our GM (whoever it may be) explores this scenario.

PJ3 or Quincy Miller with Wroten could bring so much youth & energy to this team.

Who would you like to see the Magic draft ?
