We desperately need shooting and forwards and we are trading for Rubio? Ugh. Oubre. Gallo. Pretty please.

Love probably can be had too. At least he’s a forward that can shoot. Kidding....sort of.

Rubio/25/28? Wow. If we can afford Rubio it would be awesome. Must be JJ in that deal. Please not Culver.

If we get Ricky is that the end of my boy Jmac?

We need some damn wings and a PF to play with KAT.

Why? Ideal rotation player, but 17-18m a year for backup PG is bit much.


Rather have Oubre...but whatever lol. We can settle for cheaper guy like Rodney Hood, Jae Crowder for the 3D role. Joe Harris maybe commanding 15 mil/yr atleast.

Sweet Jesus if he's Wade like? This is an all timer.

My brother was using that as a negative lol. He was like "You don't take a player like Wade at number, he's like a 5th pick."

I'm like... I don't give a damn, I will take Wade at 1 if that's on the table. There is no freaking Lebron in this draft as far as we know, I am will be super happy with a Wade.

LOL he's one of the 5 best shootings guards ever. Your brother needs a brain transfusion.

I dont get it either. We need wings and shooting. Why are we ignoring it with the little chunk of cap space we have left.

My guess too. If we let Beasley walk, how much cap space do we have? Need forwards and shooting.

I guess we can draft Green and McDaniels though.
And then one of Perry/Reed at 33.

Don’t we have too many players though?

I would welcome gambling on Jaden McDaniels.

Crazy money for back up. Love to see him back but seems like some piece missing in reports

Nah lets sign him on a bargain deal, let him recoup his value and then flip him.
