I'm just gonna follow the melo plan and get attached to 15-20 players that should be around in the areas of the draft we have picks so i won't have to worry about any teams (OKC) ripping my heart out.

N.Hyland
M.McBride
T.Mann
S.Cooper--his size and shooting really worry me but i love most from a PG is a guy that can set up the offense, run the offense and has great vision and passing ability and he has all of those so wouldn't be mad with the pick.



Here's my list so far:

Trade up:
D Mitchell
Bouknight
Giddey
Jared Butler
Sengun

19& 21:
J Butler again
Duarte
Thomas
Bones
Tre Mann
Jaden Springer
Josh Christopher

32:
Day'Ron Sharpe
Charles Bassey
Trey Murphy
Aaron Henry
Bones again depending if the talks of him rising up the board are overrated
BJ Boston


J.Butler should of been in my 19 or 21 picks, not sure why i didn't put him there but would be happy getting him at either spot.

It's funny cuz I kinda soured on Butler as we watched Davion Mitchell's rise but he's a damn good player in his own right. I just completely forgot about that until a watched a scouting video of him the other day. He's much better off the dribble than I remembered and doesn't have bad vision either. Like he's made some real creative passes.

We won’t know what that means until the lottery. If they get knocked out they have a pick at 18, if not they pick at 23 and 24 and in that case we could maneuver ahead of them. Let’s see who the Knicks bring in or get a list of CAA clients……

not that it matters because he's going top 3 at minimum, but Jalen Green is going to be RoY next year.

I think so too. He has a beautiful game, I think he’ll be a superstar. His footwork, speed, and body control when driving is like Barry sanders. He just gets through people, like he looks slight but it doesn’t matter because he avoids contact and still gets good looks at the basket. Then you look at him shoot and he shoots better than a lot of vets. I really hope the Raptors don’t draft that kid.

If they do not trade up to the 12-15 range with their picks or use it to trade for a vet or entice a S&T for a Nunn or Powell.

Butler and I.Jackson (second big behind Mitch)

Not much talk about Greg Brown but he's one of the more intriguing prospects to me. He's on the raw side as far as polished skills but he's shown a lot of good things that could help mold him into a nice player in the league but it might take a while

If they are looing at that direction, I would go Garuba if there. Taj Gibson in the making and a defensive presence Thibs would love from the start.

Jackson and Kai Jones offer backup Mitch possibilities.

While true, I have hard time believing we stay with both 19 and 21. Either a trade up or one or both are used in a trade for an established players. That being said, I like the depth in this draft. And hey I am used to having my heart crush with Jordan Hill being there instead of Curry.

I don't think either of those bring the same type of offensive versatility. Brown has a much higher offensive ceiling than those guys
