i would

this draft might be the one draft we'll be able to trade up for the first pick, so I'd probably do it.

So 6th, 27th, and 36th picks? (6th subject to lottery, of course).

There's a difference between uncontested and un guardable.

How is Mitch unguardable..? He has no jumper, no post moves, terrible ball handling.. etc. He’s just a lob threat at best.

But what he has is un guard-able(Because of his length and explosion), or do you think there is a league wide consensus in place not to contest mitch's dunks and putbacks? Shaq wasn't the most versatile player either...but so what?

Shaq had post moves and was one of the most dominant bigs of all time. Mitch is neither.

I dont like any of the lottery projected PG’s. Bad defenders, bad shooters or both.
Not so convinced on Toppin, Edwards or Wiseman either.
Trade down for Vassell + 21first with lottery pick.
Trade up with Lac 1st and cha 2nd for nesmith.

Next year it will be possible to dump 4mil guarantee salary of Randle. With our own, dal and incoming 21 first; go for Cade.

Hey the curse is only temporary. Tatum and Ayton found a way to get out of it. Lol

20 rolls, expect the worst

I'm preparing myself for 7th or 8th

for such a bad season, I was really hoping for better; when's the last time we actually moved up in the lottery?

As much as I like Mitch I can see him taken out easily in the playoffs at least on the offensive side once opposing players start to take it up a notch effort wise.

In the postseason if we want to make a deep run we are going to need players on the court at the same time that can either be able to create their own shot or make open jump shots.

I was whining earlier in the day about losing the NBA season and said, "At least I have the tournament to watch." :noway:

Rooting for wins is downright stupid under every circumstance.
