Is there any way that OG falls to 31? Would you guys take him then?

There is no way he falls that far. He got a green room invite.

He wouldn't be the first green room invitee to fall to the second round.

Well if he did, would you take him? He could be our Draymond Greene steal for our lifetime.

True, but one of the only ones. Odds are extremely unlikely that he's there.

Daytona Davis?

That aside, I'd wet myself if he were still on the board at #31 and would be all over him.

I knew you would! I'd love it too! Can't pass that value up.

I don't like this mock draft, Josh Jackson didn't even work out for the Celtics lol.

I don't see how we could leave him on the board if he somehow fell that far. He was discussed as a lottery pick just last week.

A lot might be shocked but I would not mind taking frank jackson as high as 11. I think he was potential to be a good pro if nothing else great insurance for Kemba if not able to replace him

No idea if there is any truth to this tweet, but it wouldn't surprise me. Seemed like Bam had a good workout here, and anyone who has been paying attention knows Cliff has been begging for rim protection. I'd at least hope that Cho would have found a way to get Bam later in the draft in this case. Seems like origin might have been a Jon G pod.

I like Bam but at 31 or packaging a player and 31 to move up! I'd be devastated if we lost the no.11 pick.

If we had drafted Bam at 11 I would have lost my mind
