    I like the sound of Marcus Paige. Why is he so low? Dude's scouting report says he's not an exceptional athlete but he's got Derrick Rose level vertical numbers. He's smart and a 4 year player, just like Morey likes em.

    Cheick Diallo... Looks like a real project. I'd be extremely happy if he falls to the Rockets. Watch him attack the rim...

    He projects as a 9-10th man on a team. And will almost certainly go undrafted.

    If the Rockets use a 2nd on an international it should be for Yabusele

    @WojVerticalNBA now
    Sources: Charlotte's offering No. 22 - if team will take contract of Spencer Hawes or Jeremy Lamb. Hornets need space to re-sign free agents

    came to post this. Wouldn't mind bringing back Lamb or getting Hawes if we can get this 1st rounder. They both could fit in this offense.

    Only problem is that they're trying to shed contracts and we don't have any non-guaranteed deals to make it work.

    Deal could be agreed to and then consummated after the moratorium.

    This draft is deep man. Both of these dudes would be late 1st rounders in most drafts.

    Pascal Siakam, New Mexico State! He would be a steal in the 2nd.

    Id do that. I'd also try to trade that pick plus Ariza for 12 and then try to trade 12 plus Capela for #3. #Murray

    Why wouldn't Brooklyn take that offer? Hawes & #22 for Jarrett Jack [partial guarantee $500,000/full after June 30].

    If we're using our picks, just get the 2 best shooters still available. Shooters, no matter how young, can always play a role.

    Exactly. Even better, draft two of the top 5 scorers in college basketball this year.;)
