Christian Watford In The Second?

What do yall think of Christian Watford from Indiana in the second? I know we currently don't have one but I imagine they aren't to hard to acquire. Watford seems like someone that could become a solid D and 3 type guy.

Unless we are looking for a Euro stash, I do not see us acquiring a 2nd rounder. We are a young team, so adding a 2nd rounder is probably not high on the priority list.

I'd love to grab Allen Crabbe if he falls to the 2nd.

If we came up with a 2nd rounder a guy I like is James Southerland outta Syracuse. A legit 6'8" 3pt shooter with a great frame? Can never have too many 3pt shooters. Kind of a Darius Miller clone. See if he comes in and pushes Miller for some minutes.

There are so many guys to like, but we more than likely aren't acquiring another pick if we keep #6.

2nd round picks can be had for not much (future pick or cash)

But why give up future assets when 2nd round picks turn out to be out of the league more often than not?

Plus, we don't have a 2nd round pick until either 2015 or '16 to give up.

He's the ideal guy you want with late 1st-2nd round picks. Productive college "vets". Guys who were able to get it done in college, but may have limited upside. I'd do it.

Because a future 2nd isn't much to give up. It is a very small risk.

giving up future second round picks is what got us to the point where we are now, wishing we had a second round pick

Every team every year is going to wish they had a 2nd round pick when they don't have one. This is a normal part of basketball.

trade the 6th to T-Wolves for 9th and 26th.

Draft (9th) Shabazz, SF

Draft (26th) Pierre Jackson, PG
