sorry ok Jabari gone . Banchero or trade for trade for an elite young NBA star or trade to get Smith !
No....there are too many people who needs the ball in their hand, I would get rid of Wood. I believe KPJ and Paolo are from the same area and Green claim Paolo is his Lil brother...
Definitely gonna be more exciting with the #3. If it was #1 We'd probably know ahead of time. Gonna be fun!
KPJ Jalen Eason Banchero Sengun Nix, JC, KMJ, Queen, Mathews, Garuba, Fernando - bench Tate, Gordon Wood - traded
Really hope somebody wants Banchero in the top 2. If the expected top 2 are off the board, then Ivey only by the slightest bit, but I have very little preference among these 3 and Murray. If they were to take Banchero it wouldn't bother me. The other 3 have dangerously low floors, and Banchero has a lower ceiling IMO than I would like this high in the draft
If Jabari is gone before we pick I'll take Ivey and trade KPJr. I think John Collins fits better to this team than Banchero so here's my proposed trade: Wood + KPJr. + Gordon + Nwaba for J. Collins + Gallinari + #16pk makes a lot sense for both teams why the Hawks do it: Collins wants out of Atlanta, Wood will be a solid replacement of Collins and compliment to Capella. Hawks desperately need a 2nd play-maker behind Trae, KPJr. will be perfect next to Trae. E.Gordon gives them another play-maker off bench and huge upgrade over Gallo defensively. Nwaba gives them much needed defensive help at the wing. Trae / KPJr. / Hunter / Wood / Capella with E.G./ Bogdan / Huerter / Okongwu off-bench why the Rockets do it: this is assumed Jabari/Chet goes #1/#2 and we got Banchero and Ivey left at #3 i'd take Ivey over Banchero John Collins is a proven 20/10 40%3pt player (19-20 season) and is only 24yr., to me it's better take the chance on Banchero. i don't know how the opposite team can stop a Green/Ivey back-court, just too fast to keep up with. Ivey will need to learn how to run a winning team but he's smart and i just have much more confidence with him than KPJr. and we can combine the #16+#17 to move up like how we moved up to #16 to get Sengun. something like #16+#17 for #13 to get Tari Eason. Gallo's expiring contract is only partially guaranteed so he'll be waived and saved Tillman a lot of money J.Ivey / J.Green / J.Tate / J.Collins / Sengun with Christopher / Mathews / KMJr. / Eason / Garuba off-bench there's still a slim chance the Magics being stupid and take Banchero #1 and let Jabari slip to #3 tho.
Gonna fall.. 1. Chet 2. Paolo 3. Jabari Unless something crazy happens with KPJ and they go with Ivey.
Hoping for Chet but I’ll take any of the big 3. Just happy to get a top 3 pick 1) Chet 2) Paolo 3) Jabari in that order I would also be fine with Ivey if they went with him
After looking at the Magic and Thunder rosters I agree with SB Nation newest mock https://www.sbnation.com/nba/2022/5...ft-2022-instant-first-round-picks-final-order #1 Banchero (Magic) #2 Chet (Thunder) #3 Jabari (Houston)
