Porter is our pf

Happy for Grant. Harvey was a class act and Horace was my favorite player as a kid.

TY, Ok... well I'd use this year's 2nd and...ahem cash, and try to move up for Holmes. A Oubre-Holmes draft would be ok by me.

I'm hearing different things. So we still have our 2nd in this draft?

Not sure what to think... surprised to say the least, Oubre was not on my radar at all.

Nice to hear he's buds with KD. Like the comp to Ariza. Excellent wing defender will make Hands happy. Athletic, long wing span, highly skilled SF or SG.

Maybe opens up a Beal/Gortat for Cousins possibility?

Interesting that nobody has picked Portis yet. I guess he just wasn't as well liked by NBA teams as he was by the mocks.

Has anybody heard any more info on that weird trade with Houston involving Ely? I'm hoping we somehow exchange our TPE for Terrence Jones.

The report was two future second rounders. I suppose this years second rounder is technically a future pick, but I doubt that's what was meant.

Hmm. Good point. If Oubre is as talented as advertised, that would be a nice squad that would still have space for Durant next year. OTOH, if Oubre has character red flags, I don't want him *and* Cousins. We need to enforce that "one knucklehead per team" rule.

I would be over the moon if we trade back in for Portis

Sure, hope you are right.

Portis really dropping. Maybe something we don't know?

Post #1953 » by **TheSecretWeapon** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 1:51 am

No big gripes from me about getting Oubre, by the way. Looks like a decent prospect with some upside. Okay shooter, but nothing special. Not good from 2pt range. Okay from the FT line. Really good rebounder. Good defender. Young. Not a bad pick-up, though trading up to get him seems an odd move.

I did have Portis rated ahead of him.

The Milwaukee Bucks, in the first trade struck during Thursday night’s NBA draft, have agreed to terms on a deal that will bring them veteran guard Greivis Vasquez from the Toronto Raptors, according to league sources. Sources say that the Bucks will send a 2017 first-round pick (via the Los Angeles Clippers) and the 46th pick in Thursday night’s second round to Toronto to bring in Vasquez for the backcourt depth and extra floor leadership they’ve been seeking

Well, now we wait to see who falls to us in the 2nd round.

FAH1223 · Post #1956 » by **FAH1223** » Fri Jun 26, 2015 1:53 am

I'd trade back to get Portis

ESPN was simply explaining how Houston had New Orlean's pick (Ariza/Asik S&T)

I think they were showing the trade we did last year with Ariza to Houston. It caught me off guard too.

Raptors pick about to kill the board, see you in half an hour.
