No, we need some F****** Guards that don't suck. Our Center is our lone allstar .... and people want to draft another one? Our forward spots are loaded so much that Cam can't get minutes. Amen, Brooks, Jabari, Tari, Cam, Tate, Uncle Jeff, Jack McVeigh, The guards are where the team is hurting - Green is ok ... but not a world beater, FVV needs to go away. Holiday is a short 2 guard. Shepard??? who knows. The only other guard on the roster - Jeenathan Williams. There are at least 3-4 guards in this draft, outside the top 5 that have huge potential Queen is intriguing, he's got an old man game, but I don't see the athleticism necessary for the defensive end. Don't think you play him with Sengun. Give me the best PG / Combo guard on the board when we pick. Kasparas Jakucionis Egor Demin Walter Clayton Jr Jase Richardson Sergio de Larrea
Agreed. I am leaning against trading for KD because I don't think we are a KD away from a championship. He would help us for a few years, but I'd rather we use the Suns' pick this year to try to find another piece. It's not worth sacrificing the pick for a few years of KD.
Agreed. We definitely need to take more swings at finding our star guard. I haven't given up on Reed but why put all our eggs in one basket? Thanks for the names. I will look at them as I have only heard of the first two. I like the look of Demin. I love a pure playmaker but he also looks like he can shoot and he has great height for a PG.
I remember once seeing Tre Johnson in a mock draft drop down to the Rockets and thought, if he actually dropped that far in reality, the Rockets should just trade the pick to a team that actually need him. After last night, I'm more inclined to just take him if he's there at 10.
Agree - we need a reliable guard (1 or 2) to come off the bench who can shoot and defend. Whether that be someone in the draft or we use the pick + expiring contracts to get that guard depends on where the best deal can be found. After last night, FVV should never play more than 30 MPG unless he's shooting lights out, and for those inevitable nights that Jalen's offense disappears, we need to be able to sub someone who act as the perimeter creator.
Based on what? I'm basing today on a random tweet, so I'd don't know either way, just curious what info you have?
I don't know how anyone can advocate for another draft pick, especially if we're in the latter part of the lottery. At some point, this potential this potential that has to stop. can we just get some NBA players who know how to put the ball in the hoop?
It was tweeted that it's today at 3pm. Whether that's eastern, central, western, southern, lunar, or Morris Day time, I don't know.
You're assuming we're going to keep existing players. They could always consolidate our existing players in a trade for those "NBA players who know how to put the ball in the hoop".
Looks like from a couple of tweets, the 3 pm time was Eastern. Other tweets said sometime after that the NBA will release the results. So sometime today... maybe. lol. If the 3PM Eastern time is legit, it's probably already been done.
