Realistically? I think that sets us up nicely with a younger squad that, along with a key free agent or two, can grow this season with James and MDA. One turnaround season with an up and coming roster could put us in the room with Blake Griffin (who I think is the perfect compliment to James and a perfect fit with MDA's offense). What, you hoping we shock the world and score all of Boston's picks in exchange for Dekker?
My dream is that we look back at this draft 6 years from now and think, damn we cleaned up considering we didn't have a single 1st round draft pick the night before it started.
Tyler Ulis - would be the best point guard in the draft if not for his size. To me, he would be a very effective backup point guard, especially under D'Antoni who knows how to utilize pure point guards. Caris Levert - A good shooter with good passing/ball-handling skills. As a wing player, his skills would fit D'Antoni's offense.
We wont trade for any players to mess with our cap situation. If anything we lose guys to help with cap
please don't draft any Foreign player...... I don't want to see 200 threads a year about so n so is the next Steve Nash / Dirk Nowitzki etc.
Trade Capela to Boston for Smart, draft Tim Luwawu, Pasal Siakam & Petr Cornelie Smart / Harden / Ariza / Harrell / DMo Bev / Luwawu / Dakkar / Siakam / Cornelie In time (championship run 2017 - 2018) Smart / Harden / Luwawu / Siakam / DMo
this is my dream too! Given the number of teams that are trying to move out of the draft, it strikes me that there's real value here, if we are willing to take some risks. Why not double down on this draft? if your name isn't James Harden we should be shopping you for picks; and we should consider trading future picks if we think there's a franchise player in this draft who is attainable.
Kay Felder from Oakland is insanely raw. 4th in the nation in PPG, 1st in APG and had a higher max vertical than Vince Carter
He's also insanely short, 5'9. And this is coming from a Kay Felder fan. Love how he goes 100% on both ends of the court, but his size will be a huge detriment at next level. But should be a stud off the bench. Would love him in late 2nd or as UDFA. Same with Georges Niang. Like Felder, great intangibles and efficiencies to offset the size disadvantages.
