Dosumno is probably more realistic than the rest. Unless Dallas or the Knicks happen to be in the play in tournament lose and improve there draft range.

I got dosumno as a draft steal definitely wouldn’t mind drafting him. Seems like a thib type guard that brings it on both ends and has size for the point guard position too. I like that he can play and defend both positions

Threads get started again after 100 pages? Since I'm new, not sure how things work around here.

Let's get Barnes and Bouknight. Make any trades necessary to get there.

And then if Ayo or Sharife fall, let's trade up to get one of them too. That would be a fantastic draft. All four players project to be at a minimum starter level players, with Barnes and Bouknight having star potential.

Lonzo OR Ayo/Sharife
Burks/Bouknight
RJ/Bullock/Barnes
Randle/Barnes
Mitch/Noel

That could end up being a great team after the kids get time to adjust. Also, if we added all that talent, we'd have a lot more trade pieces if we wanted to make the move for a disgruntled star.

Stupid not to add Barnes, but that's cool.

When Barnes ends up being a star in the league, you'll wish we would have gone after him. But, time will tell. Both of us have a chance to be dead wrong.

Agree 100%. I would love for us to move up and get a 3rd #1 in this draft. We have plenty of assets to do it. There's a chance Ayo drops a bit, so it wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility at all.

Ayo has a very polished game for a 21 year. He already works like a professional and takes his game very seriously. He's big and strong for a PG, a playmaker who can shoot a bit, has the ability to drive and finish with contact. Get's his teammates going as well. He would be the perfect Thibs PG. I'm really hoping our franchise feels the same about him. He'd fix our PG situation for the next 5+ years, and it won't take a lot to land him either (unless he is a later riser in the draft).

I am praying that the Cavs win the lottery again. If they take Cunningham (which I assume they take the best available), the hope is that they make either Sexton or Garland available via trade. I'm not sure what all it would take to acquire one of them, but if we could flip one of the 2021 pick we have, along with New York 2023 pick and Knox for one of them and a future 2nd ? We would still have picks in both 2021 and 2023 and acquire our PG of the future

Sexton/Rose
Bullock/ IQ
RJ / Burks / Ziaire*
Randle / Obi
Mitch / Nerlens / Pelle

Didn’t think about this possibility but Sexton is def the type of dog/attack point that Thibs loves. He’d fit well I think

Not a bad thought process. Even if they get a top 3 pick, there is Suggs and Green as well. One of Sexton or Garland would be on the market. I'd love to snag Garland.
