  1. Reading all your comments, apparently every player is not NBA ready or an upcoming bust.

     

    Lonzo is a bust

    Jackson cannot shoot and a bust

    Fox cannot shoot and is probably a bust

    Tatum is not athletic enough

    Smith is a big gamble and injury prone

    Isaac is a bust

    Ntilikina is a bust

    Markannen is a bust

     

    So, why are we even drafting?

     

    LOL


  2. I really want Smith Jr. on this team.

     

    Yeah dude is a stud too. It's funny cause I remember back in like January we were thinking if we fell out of the top four we weren't going to be able to get him. Now it's looking like he'll be there for us at #6 with Fox on the rise.

     

    A few months ago sixth pick looked like a bad spot but it's looking pretty good now. In my opinion I feel like the top four will be Fultz, Ball, Jackson and Fox then it becomes really interesting after that with Smith, Tatum, Isaac, and Monk still on the board. Out of those four I think Isaac has the most upside but the other three can score really well.


  3. if fox and smith both go in top 5, one of ball, Jackson, or Tatum will be there at 6. No point in giving up assets to move up when a great player will be there regardless.

     

    Agreed, more than likely we'll have our pick be one of the following players. Smith, Monk, or Isaac. If Fox sneaks into the top 5 than Tatum may be there as well for us


  4. If we draft either of them, I doubt they start right away. But when they do break into the starting rotation, I think I'd like:

     

    EP/Monk/Ross/AG/Vuc with Fournier coming off the bench. With Monk's scoring ability being his best attribute but questionable D, I like Ross's defensive upside in the lineup with him. Then Fournier can come off the bench and focus on scoring and not facilitating as much.

     

    I like that and I think I would like Fournier coming off the bench with either Isaac or Monk on the team.

     

    I would like Ross in the starting lineup regardless because he plays smarter than Fournier.

     

    I'd like to see the starting lineup of:

    Payton, Ross, Isaac, Gordon, and Vucevic

     

    With Fournier, Biyombo, Hezonja, and Augustin as the first four coming off the bench.

     

    I'd love walking away after round one with Isaac at #6 and P.J. Dozier at #25.


  5. I also mentioned that it was set up perfectly for Lebron to be able to come back as a free agent to create a big 3. If Cleveland didn't jump into the # 1 spot that year would they have Lebron right now?

     

    To your 2nd question maybe it was rigged for us... Brand new franchise trying to get a footing in the league sounds plausible to me.

     

    You're not the only one man I'm with you. I don't think it goes as far back as when we picked Shaq but it does go back a few years. I truly believe when Lebron left Cleveland it was all setup for him to make a comeback. Timberwolves help out the Cavs with Love so they get rewarded with two first round picks. The Cavs get rewarded by losing Lebron so they get two first round picks. I believe it was all part of the NBA'S plan. I hear it alot in Vegas with friends who work at the sports book. Football games are even rigged. I've learned that living in Nevada and I bet carefully and 90% of the time I walk away a winner.
