Dwight's turning 32 this year, he wouldn't be the reason if they decide not to draft Markkanen or Z. Collins.

I just see them in need of a 2 guard more so than a big.

Have a feeling that MJ goes with Kennard or Justin Jackson.


Hornets will mostly likely be able to pick one of Markkanen, Monk, DSJ or Z. Collins. I have us picking Mitchell right now.

PG's in this draft has the potential to drop..... If LA folds and gives up that No 2 overall pick, can see Ball fall quite a bit..... Markkanen to the Knicks is all but assured now so wondering where that leave Ntilikina?

This channel made great videos last year for even the second rounders. Unfortunately they didn't make many this year. And these just came in pretty late:


We didn't get any of those slam pre draft workout videos this year. IMO the coverage has been pretty chitty. :cry:

You got to be careful listening to coach k (saying Winslow was Wade :lol: ), but what he says here is not an exaggeration:

This video was removed from youtube after the last time I posted it (probably by Rich Paul to protect Fergie's stock). U watch te plays around 20 seconds, 1 minute and 2 minutes and you tell me that this is not a Heat Dawg. :nod: How often do you see someone get a steal, just taking someone's lunch money (it's usually in passing lanes).

I can't believe this guy is projected lie 56 by Dx. A 5+ to 1 assist to tov ratio is elite. I see a taller Tyler Ulis.


Thornwell also projected late 2nd by dx and he might end up better than JJUNC



Hopefully, if they don't buy a pick, they make a signing of an undrafted player. I envied Houston last year, right away swooping in grabbing Wiltjer and GP

One mock draft has us picking this kid:





Considering how well Kentucky kids do in the pro's, I wouldn't oppose this.

1 of OG or Leaf would satisfy my taste buds but really anyone but Giles will do

Oof, need to draft solely because of the shorts. Need some more booty in the paint



Dr.Skipaturner should animate us, he does simplify defense and shooting quite oddly tho

Long Live Winnie. Mamba siempre

What if we trade 14 for him and then trade TJ for an early 2nd or late 1st to take our big?


We definitely need to unload that contract. it will be disastrous to our cap situation in 2018 and 2019


Only for one season. We can resign TJ to a longer contract (for more money over more years) in 7/2019.


Even then I don't see him taking much of a cut. Maybe we get him to 3/40 or 3/45. The bottom line is we never should have signed him to anything close to what we did.

Strange that a mock draft has him going to us. Do you think Miami would pick him if he was there at 14?

100 percent positive he doesn't drop that far. Lonzo Ball might be the PG that drops and I doubt he drops that far either.

Let's say he drops all the way to us , would the Heat pick him

And before you guys start saying he ain't dropping that far, let's say the same thing happens to him that happen to Laremy tunsil of the Dolphins

That only happens if a photo of Lonzo with a gas mask comes out within the next 24 hours and even with that I highly doubt he's making it past Phoenix.

A pic of tunsil smokes out of a gas mask caused his slide, but i forget who it was in dolphins org, but we knew someone who knew his agent and knew that other than the pic, he was clean.
