    There's alot of good players to be had in the secound round this year. Josh Christopher is one of my favorites too but he'll go around the 14-20th which I feel we need to desperately chase.

    Im a Big Jalen Green fan, He has all the tools to be a all star in today's NBA. He wouldve torn up NCAA if he went that route. In the Gleague he got better and better each game and showed he was the best player on that team.

    Leaning more toward Kuminga because he serves a need to this team. We have the guards we need to win. Green and Suggs would be my 2nd, 3rd choices.

    Other: Krutwig. His mustache and KPJ’s hair will at least equal Harden’s beard.

    My choice still hasn't changed. Kispert is still the pick if Cade is already gone. Dropped another 6 threes yesterday. Just another day at the office...



    Dream scenario is to get Cade at #1. Combine Portland pick + Bucks pick to move up for Kispert.

    First team All American. 50-40-90 shooter. Yeah you're right, we definitely don't need to draft the best shooter in the draft. We have so many great shooters as is...

    I hope they get the 2nd pick and forced to pick Mobley. Cade would be gone in the first, so there's less pressure.

    My top 3
    1. Cade (we'd better land #1 to get him)
    2. Kispert
    3. Jalen Green

    I'm not drafting anyone that can't shoot or is below 6'6". We've got enough scrubs on this team that are short and cant shoot.

    Lol, so you’d then pick the college Senior as your #2 choice over younger players with far more upside and potential. I was giving u the benefit of the doubt asking if u were trolling, but you’re actually serious. Oh my

    Kispert is literally Joe Harris 2.0 man.

    You don’t use a top 5 pick on a sharpshooter. He doesn’t impact the game in any other aspect. Averages just 4.9 rebounds and 1.8 assists. And he can’t create his own shot. Not to mention, he’s a senior so he’s already 22.

    Dead serious. I wanted Desmond Bane last year in the draft before we gave that pick up. Now, he's on Memphis shooting 44% from 3. He would have fit perfectly here.

    Sharpshooter is our #1 need. Kispert and Cade are the best in the draft, imo. We want to chuck threes, give me those 2 guys to chuck em.

    3-D is number 1 need.

    3P shooting AND defense.

    That's not Kispert.

    And if Rockets land top 4 pick, you draft BPA.

    Need is secondary.

    that’s cool, but we’re talking about a top 4 pick and you’re mentioning Kispert...

    and your reasoning is because he’s over 6’6 and can hit a three...u take BPA or guy with the highest upside with a pick that high, not the college Senior that can shoot threes

    you’d probably take McDermott with the 2nd pick in the draft

    If we are going to suck this year so bad that watching the team makes me want to throw up, then we better get the next mf'n Basketball messiah.
