while I'd love 1 and 4 to be our picks...I imagine if we did get the Lakers pick we'd take Bender...because I think the time of having a shitton of rooks is coming to an end and adding 4 rookies hopefully to the rotation doesn't seem like it is in the cards. I suspect we vet it up next season.

If Brandon Ingram was balling like Russell did last year, that would be a hard decision. He's not, though. Ben Simmons is so far ahead of the pack that it's nauseating.

DX updated their draft board. Ingram is at 2 and Bender at 3. This draft STINKS. Keep that pick Lakers.

all I want is 4 prospects (excluding Simmons because I'm not about to get my hopes up lol) that "could" be great to manifest themselves come draft time.

I want 2 picks. Our pick and the Miami pick. The Lakers pick can roll over. I want the top pick. And I want to find a sucker to trade the okc pick to potentially get a higher draft pick down the road.

I think in terms of role players, this draft is pretty deep so yeah the Miami pick could field a nice talent. Ideally we throw that and the OKC pick together to move up into the teens if possible tho

he plays out of control and is a chucker, when he is hot he is really good, he is a freak athletically and plays bullyball, but when he is not, he is a cancer.
his shot is still iffy.

I like him anyway. I would be happy to take him with one of the late first rounders.

He definitely has incredible intangibles and Is great at finishing through contact despite his stature. He will be in the NBA for a long time.

Former Drexel standout Damion Lee was the best player on the court.

This crop of Kentucky prospects is weak (Ulis' good game notwithstanding).
