I'm a big Winslow fan but the Magic need to draft one of the Euros to space the floor

If they draft Winslow that teams defensive potential is scary but in the half court offensively they will struggle a lot


Honestly they are going to struggle multiple ways but just imagine how scary this squad will be in a year or 2.

Yeah I love the Oladipo Payton backcourt.Still not sure what to make of Gordon

Only thing they lack is a franchise player but so do most teams

Exactly and than big picture wise once it's the time you could always package young assets for a star...

If they think Kristops is a better player than Winslow that's the only way I can see it but otherwise I think Winslow will be the best...the shooting and the rim protection could come from a free agent or maybe a trade seems as if Harkless is the odd man out...Also backup PG deserves a look (And I say that with the opinion that Payton should be the backup until he adds range and consistency to his FT) hard to compete when your PG isn't a threat to hit from deep.

If Okafor were a legit 7 feet tall without shoes on he'd be going first in the draft and this wouldn't even be up for debate, period.

And I've said many times Okafor is the same size (minus standing reach) as Boogie, where has Boogie gotten the Kings? Best center in the league, yet they're probably going to draft Willie Cauley Stein to protect the paint. It's never been about Okafor's offense, it's about his defense, you're talking like I said he'd be a bust, I said he's Boogie many times over and that also includes needing a big next to him that can defend.






Duncan is 6'10" and change without shoes, and while there's no info on his wingspan or reach he's probably got stretch armstrong arms.


Man I just don't see it Boogie is a beast all the way but when he was picked and we were debating favors vs cousins I never thought we'd be at this point watching boogie put up 24 and 12

I really want Willie Cauley-Stein because we need rim protection. I think if Tobias Harris walks though, we should go after Justise Winslow. I know a lot of mocks having us taking one of the Euros, but I honestly think we'll walk away with one of those two guys. If Tobias walks, we take Winslow. If Tobias stays, we take WCS.

so for the purpose of this draft (since we won't know what happens with Harris til after the draft), what's your pick?

The more I watch/read of Hezonja, the more I become convinced he's an elite wing prospect.

I can understand if someone thinks Mudiay or Russell can become top level PGs and would prefer them, but all things being equal, I would have a very tough time taking any perimeter player over him.
