    Atlanta will pick Edey and Sarr will fall to SA at #4.

    Someone's picking Reed now. They know Rockets can evaluate.

    Welcome Rishacher.

    Good deal. Make a deal if it makes sense. Otherwise, pick Sheppard.

    It's the Paolo Banchero Effect (which some believe happened). Rockets kept saying they loved Paolo, took him out to eat, photos of him in Houston were posted and by GOD, that changed the Magic's mind and made them take Banchero #1 when he should've gone #3. I mean, if the Rockets want him that bad and are going to select him, then he's obviously the pick at #1!! DAMN YOU ROCKETS FOR GIVING AWAY THE TOP SECRET TALENT OF ONE PAOLO BANCHERO!!!

    My nightmare. If we end up with the massively overrated one-trick pony in Risacher in this draft, I'm gonna be so salty.

    Clutchfans still want to draft Flutie with the 3rd pick?

    Only way that happens is if they trade down with the Spurs.

    This looks to be one of the most interesting drafts in recent memory. I have no problem with the Rockets adding another young player.

    If Atlanta does take Clingan and Washington takes Sarr, who do you want?

    According to the poll, CFers still want Sheppard over Risacher. Or was it because most people assumed that Risacher would not be available at #3?

    Trade number three and attach Dillon Brooks . Who cares about the return as long as it’s not too much extra money. Addition by subtraction. Tari , Amen, and Cam > Brooks
