I have liked Trae Young and his skillset for point guard. Since centers will probably be gone (our other position of need) and if we end up 6th, I hope Trae Young kills his individual workout. Maybe, due to our position, he will be the best choice left. I do not think he will be an instant success but as he learns the game he will be a strong PG, with a chance at All Star status. His shooting and passing skills are special!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted April 5, 2018 The most likely scenario is the magic ending up with the fourth pick. If Dallas somehow loses to Phoenix we end up with the fourth and a half pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bulls playing better so I do not count out two Bulls wins against Brooklyn. Next up for us the Hornets here, losers of 4 straight and not exactly playing inspirng basketball right now. I could see a win for us there if they are playing out the string. At Toronto, two nights later, may have the #1 position sowed up and can rest players. At Bucks on 4/9 probably a loss. Then on 4/11 the Wizards in the last game here and if Wizards are not playing for a particular playoff position, will rest their regulars. Another potential win for us. That could be two more wins making us 5th at the best and potentially 6th. If that happens that would qualify as "WINNING OUR WAY OUT OF A GOOD DRAFT POSITION" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dwight won't mail in a game in orlando 2. Toronto should beat us even if they start fred vanvleet norman Powell cj miles siakam and poeltl 3. Milwaukee is the second night of a back to back coming back through customs 4. Washington is the tricky one. They might want to avoid Cleveland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
