I'm going with Vassell at 10, If Vassell is gone, Then Okoto. If they trade down, It will be with Boston or Dallas. And they'll take Terry and Tillman or Terry and Bey.

Anyone we draft better be a very good FT and 3pt shooter. Booker, Bridges, Johnson all panned out ... not so much for those uber-athletic "potential" types.


Yeah, I've heard Okoro compared to Josh Jackson. Of course he's thicker and probably less athletic, but probably not as big of a knucklehead.

I wonder why everyone assumes Okoro will be there suddenly.

Giannis cannot be happy.
That's officially dead when he signs someplace else. This could be all noise to cover some blatant rule breaking by doing that before FA starts.

I think it will be Vassell or Bey

My 'this came out of nowhere' guy is as I mentioned this morning: RJ Hampton.

Mike Schmitz - the ESPN draft guy - has Okoro at 3 on his board I think which is interesting.

I think everyone here assumes it will be one of those guys.

I already mentioned the fact that since Nesmith has that injury (or injury history) and might drop, that would likely be a guy they might take if they trade down.

But I think most expected Vassell, Bey or Bane...or possibly Lewis until the last few days.

Okoro is new, and was mentioned by both Gambo and Flex...the Jersey Guys.

Then Gambo mentioned Avdija (could be the guy Flex was talking about dropping...but no one knows who will drop..of course they will take a great player who drops).

Nesmith/Vassell have never been out of our range.

Remember last year when everyone said Cam Johnson to the suns all the way up to the draft. Oh wait.
I am such a lucky NBA fan. 8647 My favorite team went from the most greedy and racist owner to the most ego driven dumbass owner in all of sports fdt.

Only a fan of Arizona teams!

Guys sprain ankles and **** like that workout all the time...when you see it immediately reported by the Wojs of the world you have to assume it's something serious.

**** for Klay, seems like a great guy.

I know a lot of Cavs and Hawks fans want him. I hope one of them takes him. He does have a different skill set than the wings on both of those teams.

There's a difference between assuming as much and getting confirmation from sources.
