Now I gotta get his jersey!!

Knight wore the same number with the Bucks when he wasn't as awful as he is now.

I'm already frustrated that San Antonio is going to get the steal of the draft.

Shhhhhhh maybe some teams don't realize they are still on the board.


I don't see any way Giles or Bell fall past the Lakers IMO - they need quality bigs and if those guys are there, they're likely picking them up. Also don't see Nets or Toronto passing up on both if they're there when those teams pick.

I like Swanningan at #32 as a realistic option considering the projected first rounders are off the table.

Coach cal loves Devin booker. I hear booker referenced as much as or more than any other former player that Cal coached.

You may be right !!! However, every guy you mentioned works out together in the same workout. Not single workouts like the top 8 picks.

From what I am told Reed outshined them all in phx ! What happens from here remains to be seen but don't be surprised if Reed is our guy or we trade for Reed .... Maybe knight or Dudley for a second rounder !?


Well, Ojeleye and Bell likely will be long gone by then.

I think we can get Ojeleye with our first 2nd rd pick.


Well I've always said I think he definitely goes in the 20s...same with Bell.

Turbo boost our defense - Jackson, Bell.



Bell would be great I also would welcome Rabb if he drops that far.
Just say no to idiots!!

Hard for me to get excited about small forward with no outside shot when shooting is so important in today's NBA.

And WTF? Is TJ chopped liver. People forget how well he played on both ends before the injury.

The silver lining from me is making TJ go up against JJ in practice.

Better keep Tyson and Dudley around to keep JJ in line.

Jimmy Butler and Kawhi Leonard were meh shooters entering the NBA..

Josh Jackson has fire in him that you just know he will work hard to improve. Its up to the coaching staff to help him get there.
