McLemore is a bonefish head case. Everyone watched him disappear in games. Jeff George had tons of talent but 0 between the ears.
Hes a headcase like drummond? McLemore isn't a headcase bro, he may not have a killer instinct, but we have Kemba for those type of situations
Great lets go ahead and draft a scared shell of a player who is only able to shoot and can't dribble. That sounds like a wonderful waste of a pick. Listen I am fine with taking a risk on him if Oladipo is gone but don't gamble if you won't have to. Take the better player with the higher floor right now and be thankful.

This draft isnt do or die. I rather go for a homerun then go for a double play. Oladipo has a higher floor but a lower ceiling which = future mediocrity.

Trade one is awful and trade 2 is to much.
Trade 3 - take Burke for Jazz and trade him for Kanter and 14

Floor of 7 ceiling of 9 is better than floor of 5 ceiling of 9.5

Who would you select with pick 14? Obviously Utah sees MCW long gone by then.

Depends on how you feel about Eric Gordon. Cho says we need perimeter shooting in addition to a big so Eric Gordon + Kanter + pick 14 is a nice haul imo.

I'd pick Karasev if he's still there.

Oladipo has to rework his game
McLemore has to change his attitude at a young age, and improve his handle with the GOAT SG mentor with MJ.
who do you think has a better chance in realizing their potential?

To make them equal you draft Oladipo and teach him to shoot or draft McLemore teach him everything else and get him a shrink. I would trust Oladipo with Price more than McLemore with anyone. The head is the hardest thing to fix. Some people have an alpha personality some don't.

What about trading it for Thomas Robinson
Kemba Walker/Sessions
Eric Gordon/Hendo
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist/Taylor
Bismack Biyombo/Robinson
Enes Kanter/Biyombo

If you teach Oladipo to shoot he becomes a more athletic Raja Bell (O doesn't have great handles either)
If McLemore tightens up his handles under MJ's tutoalge hes a rich mans Ray Allen. McL doesn't need to be an alpha dog, this is Kembas team since hes the PG and has an alpha personaltiy
