    Hopefully we get a small forward and a stretch 4/5. We don’t really need a small forward, but I’d like to have one that can shoot. Plus with Ingram’s injury history it would be nice to have one. We don’t have a stretch 4/5 on the roster to space the floor. Kabengele would be perfect, but no way he falls that far. He could. That’s why I like Naz Reid at 39 cause of his outside shooting.

    Notes on Alexander Walker, just FYI, via The Ringer. Back up PG?

    PLUSES

    Ambidextrous dribbler and scorer, comfortable with executing in-out dribbles and crossovers, and at-rim finishes and floaters, with either hand.
    Good spot-up shooter who displays instincts for relocating and cutting to get open.
    Passing might be his best NBA skill: He’ll wow you with off-the-dribble left-handed passes to shooters in the corner.
    Fluid ball handler who plays with poise in the pick-and-roll; it looks like he’s coasting but he’s always under control.
    Flashes post scoring skills; with his playmaking, he could use the post as a source for playmaking as a big guard like Evan Turner.
    Long, competitive defender who should be able to effectively defend both guard spots.

    MINUSES

    Struggles finishing in the paint since his average athleticism means he doesn’t get much elevation.
    More likely a secondary playmaker than a primary due to his lack of burst.
    Ineffective 3-point shooter off the dribble, possibly due to his catapult-like shooting mechanics, where he brings the ball back to his forehead and then launches.

    Great pick for Boston at #22 with Grant Williams. I had him going higher, he's a very very good player.

  5. #505
    Man, I just want Bol Bol out of stubbornness at this point. Dude looks like a Blade villain

    Bilas with another stupid comment. Talking about Grant Williams ''Oh, he's undersized at the forward positions, but...''

    He's 6'7 with a 6'11 wingspan. What?

    Extremely true.
    Good positive energy.

    But also, yo mama's fat.

    HE'S SIX. FOOT. EIGHT.
    LOL
    Actual proof Greivis Vasquez can throw Anthony Davis an Alley-OOP on an (kinda) fastbreak!

    I was apparently misremembering, he's only 6'7, but still, the point remains. 6'6 without shoes, 6'7 in shoes, 6'11 wingspan is absolutely fine for a forward.

    Man, hope we trade up for Bol Bol. Can't be taking like, 3 second round guys.

    Utah, selecting for OKC, draft: Darius Bazley

  12. #512
    Bazley was another one I liked for the 2nd. How can you pass on a guy that was a top 5 small forward recruit in Nassir Little for a guy that didn’t even play college ball? He’s taller? Lol

    We have 2 2nds. The last goes to Atlanta

  14. #514
    If Bol Bol falls to us in the second round, we have to take him.

    If he doesnt (I don't think he does) then we should still be able to pick up either Jontay Porter or Nicolas Claxton, who are very promising young bigs.

    Yeah, I forgot about that. Still true though, can't see us taking multiple second round guys.

    The Sixers, picking for Boston, select: Ty Jerome

    Wow, he jumped.

    Woj says he's going to Phoenix!

    Pretty good chance for them to pick up high talent late. Very lucky.

    Where have they gone?

  22. #522
    We have good options here. We have #35 and #39, so those are both ''high'' second rounders, and could easily be packaged together to move up, possibly even to the end of the first round. #29th or #30th.

    I hope Kabengele & Dylan Windler falls to us!

    If I thought Carsen Edwards could play the point I’d take him, but I see him more like Lou Williams and we have too many 2 guards especially if we keep Moore.

    Trade Moore & 39 to get Bol Bol baby!! lol
