    I'll just settle for one top 10 pick.

    I was never into the idea of getting two and then handing them to Orlando any ways.

    lmao.. most of the time no trades are done till the draft. I'm surprised we've had a few before this year. It's ok to still have hope

    Here's something to look forward to during the draft:

    I've noticed over the years that if there are question marks about a guy and his mom is skinny he tends to be a bust.

    It's the Skinny Mom Bust Rule. (Don't google that though). Just FYI. Look for the moms. ;)

    I think the kings want a sf. Who do we have of value at sf? We might be throwing the kitchen sink in right now. On the clock trades are awesome

    agreed. i have a bad feeling we will get stuck too. but hopefully this time our luck turns the other way and we all are in for a surprise once the draft begins.

    Drummond's mom isn't skinny, so you're saying he's definitely not a bust?

    No. It's just less likely. :)

    Royce white is number 4 on my big board. Has big hands that allow him to make really insane passes. A point forward is his position. Great court vision. Just from watching him play on film, he just knows how to play. Doesn't have a good jumper is the real negative about him.
    I would snatch him at 18 without blinking.

    So many guys have good potential in this draft. Some are clearly bust potential. Tough draft to evaluate. There are gonna be some real good players drafted late.

    He or Harkless from St. Johns would be good in that range of the draft.

    Good stuff just now on SC from @Chris_Broussard: Cleveland has discussed dealing Anderson Varejao for No. 7 (Warriors) and No. 12 (Rockets)
