LAC pick is probably going to fall early 20's. What would you throw in to jump into late lottery to grab a Walker, Wallace or whoever is on your list? Players? Picks? Pass?
Early 20's? I doubt that. They're at 18 now, and I think they're more likely to fall in the standings than rise, considering the Lakers got a lot better, Wolves got better (plus are going to get Townes back), and Pels are going to get Zion back. Clips meanwhile still don't really have a real PG, and personally I think their moves at the deadline didn't do much to improve themselves. Plus Clips have a really hard schedule. I'm thinking that pick is more like 13 to 18 than early 20's .
Ck it out. Clips did not get worse. The guy's they got plus whatever they add down the stretch... Bet they end up in the mid 20's.
I am targeting Derek Lively. Here is a guy I think you can build an elite defense around. Harden / TyTy / JC Green / KMJ Eason / Tate Jabari / Sengun Wemby / Lively / Garuba
I think you meant to say IF Kawhi shows up for the stretch run. Availability is his problem. But, yea. With their strength of schedule, no PG, and flaky stars, I'd be surprised to see the pick drop below 20. Regarding the tread topic: I think these smaller trade up scenarios are best left for draft day when you can see if one of your top guys are falling and you can trade up a couple spots to get them.
16 to 18 The Lakers are fighting The Suns are fighting The Pelicans The Warriors Utah is done They'll be a scrum at spots 6-10... Memphis may fall but I don't expect a pick in the 20s
Not many players as efficient and productive as him at age 20 in the history of the NBA. Not sure why it is taking so long for so many Rockets fans to see it, but it is what it is.
