There’s also a weird 4 for Kevin Love theory - Griffin wants a “veteran stretch 4” if he trades the fourth pick..


Hes fired tonight if he pulls that stunt.

It’s the rumor - could be a red herring or smokescreen - hard to imagine a team who has a veteran stretch 4 to combine with other value to trade up..

Romeo's my guy. Complete skill package that just needs more refining. Great physical attributes for a 2 guard. His on-ball game would be unique on this team.

A lot of Jrue Holiday in his physique and versatility, with less playmaking and more size.

Woj should just replace Silver as the draft MC and come sprinting up to the podium with every tip. Or better yet have Shams as co-MC and have them race to the mic.

Man, no news on trades, less than 5 hours to go. How have we not traded Baynes and Yabu for Kawhi, #3 and JJJ yet?!?!?

Yep. Quickness, length, strength. Not particularly tenacious but has the tools and the know how.

Probably NFL, too, then. Crap now how am I going to watch the NBA draft...and NFL season...and NBA season? Am I supposed to pay for this stuff? :o

Edit to add: I live in Seattle so watching local TV is not an option in most cases.

I don't think he falls that low.
I think they gotta take him with #14.

Argh, I forgot about that too! Does ESPN stream it on their site? Looks like Woj tweets might be the way to go, but I always enjoy the live draft for some reason. One of my favorite NBA nights of the year. Now I don't know how I will watch.

Agreed he's not going to be there in the 20's. It only takes one team to fall in love. Remember when Thon Maker went #10 overall? :lol:

I'll consider him at 51, depending on who else is still available. 8-)
Sorry CFSB.

But I wouldn’t take him. Not with a pick I valued. Mostly because NBA people will tell you the league gives players reasons to quit every day. Guaranteed contracts. A grind of a schedule. Never-ending competition. Injuries complicate all this, too. And with Bol, we just don’t have proof he’d fight to matter under those circumstances.

Draft guys say otherwise because of body type and injury. But look at it this way, when the prospect like him was rumored to be 35 years old Thon Maker, he was listed as slipping past us and close to the second round as the draft day approached, and the bucks took him at 10.

The whole nba was like 'lol what" but it only takes 1 team to take a risk.

You could pay for it...

It's probably a matter of time before they shut down the NBA Streams Discord too.

Danny refuses to include Yabu so it fell through.
Jordan Walsh goes top 10 in a 2023 redraft.
