I just hope one of Noel, Porter, Oladipo will be there. Otherwise, I wouldn't be opposed of trading the pick. McLemore is too damn passive. Burke is too small. So is McCollum. The less is said about MCW the better.

Far too early to call but I saying we walk out of the draft with Shabazz and Adetokunbo.

Not sure best options there but that's who we will get. :P

wouldn't mind a trade back 9 + 26 to jazz for 14 + 21 - get some stephen adams + caldwell-pope/giannis/karasev and grab some nemanja nedovic in the 2nd round and call it a day. might give the jazz a chance to grab burke or carter-williams. would be stoked with that.

I've seen a bunch of mocks having Alex Len, MCW, and Burke all going top 9. Which is definitely possible looking at team needs. In this scenario it would ensure Oladipo or Shabazz fall to us.

We need Burke, MCW, Zeller, Len all to go in the top-8. That would be perfect.

It will be funny when we fast forward 2 years and the best SG out of the class will be Archie Goodwin and everyone's like, "oh man, that's who i wanted!"

Daniel Schroeder is shooting up draft boards...he wasn't even listed awhile back, now he's #20.

6'2 PG with 6'7" wingspan, awesome athlete, and only 19.

Can we please have a decision on whether Taylor is bring back Kahn, and if Adelman is coming back soon please so we can properly prepare for this draft?

RA will retire & Kahn gets a 3 year extension. He takes the solo approach for pre-draft workouts trying to sell some kid on his next blueprint outline. We go into the draft, still without a HC, where Kahn will show off his draft skills by trading down from 9 to 13 to 17 to mid 20s until we end up with the next Martell Webster + another Euro stash + future 1st + two 2nds, which he'll end up flipping for cash considerations + protected 2nd down the road.

Why would I say that? I'm the one thats voting AGAINST drafting a point guard (McCollum).

Bahhahaha. You want a point guard - MCW -- and you bought into the Gary Harris hype so much that you said you thought he was the best SG in the draft. :lol:

I believe that was if I had to choose between MCW and McCollum. MCW is 6'5". McCollum is 6'2" With three PGs already on roster, one of these would slide to SG. I'd much rather have the 6'5" guy at SG over the 6'2" guy.

And yes, I thought Harris was the most complete SG. Your point?

There's no point to be made, sheesh. Just predicting your excitement for Schroeder. Admit it, you're already talking yourself into him, aren't you?

Nope. He may be a good player, but not for us. Only thing that would possibly intrigue me is the international factor.

Klomp... smh.

MCW is a pure-point guard who can't shoot. At least McCollum has a great stroke and has the combo-guard label.

if we draft another guard from Syracuse I'm becoming a Heat fan. Just on our own history we should avoid this guy, questionable shooting is an even bigger red flag. MCW shouldn't even be an option.

If the top wing prospects are off the board I would seriously look into drafting a center prospect, mainly Alex Len. He would be in a perfect spot here slowly developing behind Pekovic. He's got much better physical tools than Pek and should be a good partner for Rubio for years to come. Gobert is another possible candidate.
