    Hope we can get into the draft somehow and grab Jaylen Brown.

    Super quiet.

    Whispers about Philly.

    May be a very simple draft, even if we move up.

    There are plenty of sharp shooters out there, but you need a player that can play the 3 and d role. A shooter that can't play defense is more of a liability.

    Praying the Rockets move up and grab Brice Johnson if he's available.

    Have a feeling that he'll end being the best player in the draft.

    They aren't what I would call "whispers". No team in the league the day of the draft has had this much media conjecture leaked out hours before the draft to get deals done. I would classify them as screams of "Lets Make a Deal".

    Do we have any interest in Denzel? I am concerned about his knees

    Is it me or is Capela the only draft pick that has made any kind of impact on the team in, lets say, the last 8-10 years now (I guess you could say Lamb did as it helped land Harden)? Ugh, we suck in the draft.
