For what pick?

Portland only has one first round pick and I selected Keegan Murray number 7.

The OP hasn't been updated past pick 7.

Has @Easy-E picked for New Orleans?

get a look at dyson in the link I just posted. @raidersreceiver @thelonious21


The kid grew from 6'6 to 6'8 and has ball handling skills like a pg....

 

[lightskin jermaine]

Will he learn how to shoot? Can Chip work another miracle?

I think its fixable. We got 3 1st round picks so take BPA at 9. I like Sochan's ability to guard 1-5 and he's competitive.

Rumor is Blazers are gonna try and make that trade for OG and send the Raptors Dyson. Dyson’s manager met up with the Raptors too recently.

Koloko , had the hype for Williams not got hella dumb during the combine he woulda been perfect both players were originally slotted as early as last month 2nd round picks smh

Either way it’s a win for us. I’m for it.

All I hoped for was Dyson, Sochan or the fantasy of them making a move to get both.

Even when I try to buy into their approach, it still fails.

Someone get me out of this version of the matrix, I want to be in one where the Knicks are perennial winners.

 

[Loose]

James Ham who covers the Kings seemed to back it too. The idea he floated was 2 for 4 & the Kings protected pick next year, although he was talking about lottery or top 8 protected which is terrible. Top 3 would probably be the best they could do on that with Presti.



I just don't think he'll pass up the chance to take Chet if he's there at 2. None of the bigs on the roster are really anything but solid backups & Chet at least has a chance to be a guy.



Dort gets traded after signing a new deal is the more likely play to me. Can't get much back for him only making under $2m & after this year the books are clean of the Kemba money & Favors so it'll only be SGA & rookie deals pretty much.

Presti is also making a big deal out of waiting to see what a new CBA looks like though

Its definitely cap and doesn't make sense imo. With way mew lottery is set uo you aren't guaranteed success in the future even if you bet on a team sucking. Plus presti wanted a big last year, hes taking chet imo

If I’m them I’m really considering that Dame trade …. This options are cool but do they put them anywhere near contending status? Maybe if they can peel Ayton from the suns but yeah OG ain’t enough

3 notables left to decide before 11:59

Julian Strawther, Gonzaga- withdrew
Marcus Sasser, Houston
Harrison Ingram, Stanford

John Butler is staying in (um)
Caleb Houstan is staying in (why)
Trevor Keels is staying in
JD Davison is staying in (ugh)

Basically just waiting on Drew Timme and Max Abmas

EDIT: Abmas is withdrawing, so just Timme for the NCAA guys

 

[tremonthustler1]

Lester Quinones (De Lo Mio Personal) staying in the draft bothers me.

 

[tremonthustler1]

Drew Timme going back to Gonzaga
