Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 2, 2016 or Payton/Oladipo/Hezonja/Durant/Gordon????? LOL seriously, Davis has the best length in our range. Diallo is long too; same measurements as Biyombo except 2" shorter wingspan. I'd take Luwawu over Valentine. Think a longer Fournier with a little better D and a little worse O. I wish we weren't so stacked at his position. Maybe we take him anyway as insurance or a draft a stash and see how Fournier/Oladipo workout over the next year? luwawu is totally Pietrus. inefficient but athletic. Good shooter. I like his 3 and D potential I dislike his low shooting % on twos. that's not indicative of a good prospect. But he played some good games against the top Adriatic league teams.

Loved that guy, but Lawawu appears to have better court vision, passing, and handles than him. His role may be the same as Pietrus, as 3 & D until he develops, but I think he can become similar to Fournier off the bench. Would you take him at 11?

I don't expect him to have a similar game to Fournier. Fournier is smooth Luwawu is explosive. Im fine drafting Luwawu as he at least fits our philosophy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted June 2, 2016 you can never have enough 6'7 guys who can hit threes and have 7'2 (reportedly, wouldn't be surprised if it was closer to 7'0) wingspans. He can switch 1-3 and probably defend some small ball fours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Neighborhood Bully 266 Report post Posted June 2, 2016 League sources tell Deveney that, while the 76ers and Lakers are expected to hang onto the top two picks in the draft, six other lottery teams may be looking to deal. The Timberwolves (No. 5), Raptors (No. 9), Bucks (No. 10), Magic (No. 11), Jazz (No. 12), and Suns (No. 13) are all believed to be open to trades involving their picks, per Deveney. Phoenix also holds the No. 4 overall selection, but likely wouldn’t want to move that one http://www.sportingn...qj1qeggmjxycbyv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CTMagicUK 1,482 Report post Posted June 2, 2016 [/size] http://www.sportingn...qj1qeggmjxycbyv With so many picks available I doubt many will actually get moved. Teams will probably value them more than they can get for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He can switch 1-3 and probably defend some small ball fours. you can if you have absolutely zero on the inside...which we have had for 5 years. We just did this exact thing with Mario and it made us dump Tobias for nothing.....enough is enough. At some point you have to some interior presence and not a bunch of 6'7" guys...unless Oladipo and Elfrid turn into Clay and Curry of course. Wait did I use Curry and Klay in the same sentence as Elfrid and Oladipo....sorry. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wait did I use Curry and Klay in the same sentence as Elfrid and Oladipo....sorry. Agree. And Oladipo and Payton aren't turning into Curry and Klay. They aren't turning into much of anything. As far as backcourts go, they're not even sniffing the top 10. We need an upgrade at PG or C, preferably both. Also, you can add Maurice Harkless to the list of athletic 6"7 wings that left for nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ones available at 11 are going to take a few years to make an impact Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ones available at 11 are going to take a few years to make an impact I'm more worried about PG then any position regardless. There are players I like at 11 but I'd still rather trade the pick all together for a proven player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
