I feel you a bit, but man this makes the Ben pick look even more shytty. Can Staukas guard 2s well enough?

We'll see. His defense needs to get better from all the scouting reports I've read. McLemore was supposed to be a good defender and he got cooked all season so Stauskas can't do any worse...nobody on this team plays defense tho.
dont agree with ORL's A- at all, LAL too. liked Denver's draft over both
TOR
Teams who did not even draft players got better grades then the Raps.
shyt that's true as well lol. This team will be fun at least on the offensive end.
Hes more athletic than people give him credit for and score in a lot of ways. Hes an offensive weapon for sure
Melo might want us to keep Taj & Dougie McBuckets
Hes trying to win titles, right?

I'm not gonna be like your average cat on here and get pissed over a draft pick I have yet to see play a minute in the NBA. Stauskas shooting is on an elite level it seems. That alone makes the pick worth it. I would have liked Efrid Payton but Stauskas is going to feast off of open looks created by Cousins and Gay. Just go and watch some highlight videos of Stauskas. Kid can shoot. He wants to be good as well.
I feel you, I just think we need a big to pair with Cuz for defense. Actually who are our other bigs, Acy and Evans still?

True...But remember...we're not talking about Dolan here...we are talking about Poker Face Phil... "We want Melo" but "we will be good either way"
It would be you guys unreliable FO that may pull a trigger to "JUST GET MELO"...
Once we get a wiff that Melo wants to bolt, we're presenting that deal that your FO nor Melo can say no too... He'll get his money, play with your core group...
D Rose
Noah Butler 
and.... BOOZER
We'll just take a few pieces to make it smooth, just an unproven McDermott & lil ole Taj...
In 2 years Gar Pax going to look at the stat sheets like...

Carl Landry and Jason Thompson as well. Derrick Williams, if you wanna throw him at the 4. Ben McLemore was the ONLY shooting guard on the roster. It was a good pick breh.
I forgot about Thompson, shyt wasn't Landry hurt all year lol. I forgot after we traded Thorton it was only Ben and McCallum to play the other guard spot. Well at least we'll have a shooter.

Jason Terry is on the roster but I doubt he ever plays a single minute in Sacramento.
I thought he would have been bought out by now lol
We can bypass Phil though - just put it all on Melo and give him two options in our upcoming meeting

In 2 years Gar Pax going to look at the stat sheets like...
1) Sign for less but allow the Bulls to keep Taj, Mcdermott & Butler
or
2) Get his max in a sign/trade but the Bulls lose talent because they'd have to move Taj & either Mirotic/Mcdermott
If Melo is looking to win, he'll do the the right thing, a roster of
Rose/Kirk or DJ
Butler/??
Melo/Mcdermott
Taj/Mirotic
Noah/Smith

Damn kind of like when Melo could of signed with the Knicks for free(relatively speaking) in the offseason but chose to gut the roster for the $$? I wouldn't bet my life on choice number 2 breh
