You cold blooded, Mags...

In any event, FOE - you can now freely talk about Jontay Porter as he has pulled out of the draft :cry:

Also, I think this is a contingency Trade with someone behind us (Charlotte, Clippers, 76ers? :dontknow:

) for Lonnie. I doubt we take him at 9 (maybe if Mikal or Sexton/Trae are gone).

Clippers have been rumored to have a hard on to move up for MPJr. :lol:

Perry did that deal with the Kings/Portland to v land multiple 1sts, so he's used to it.

I ain't been active in here for a min. So the Lonnie Walker thirst is real I see.

So Mikal ain't the wave no more?

I wouldn't be disappointed. I'll root for whomever we take. But I have guys I prefer before tho.

i think him being picked at #9 is justified. even it means being picked over mikal. his upside is huge.

i have been sayin for a couple of months now that he's gonna be a major steal when mocks had him as a late lottery pick/mid 1st pick. glad to see that he's finally getting recognized

knicks might even take him over mikal if he's still on the board. and i wont be against it

Who would be the biggest legit possible (i.e. not Alonzo Trier, etc.) first round surprise for us at 9? Heurter or Donte D.? or someone else?

I would trade down then. Only team I'd be worried about taking him between us and 12 would be Philly. Charlotte is going BPA and I don't think Lonnie is that.

Options?!
