    I don't think Tate should start if we get Banchero, but the Rockets will be starting (insert big here) + Sengun no matter what. You really can't just draft a guy that high and have him warming the bench. Just like Green you have to let him take his lumps and learn and the sooner the better.

    Nbadraft.net thinks the thunder will take Ivey and Holmgren will fall to pick 4.

    first you wait and see if one of the two team ahead of us draft him then if they do you pull a trade like Dallas did the Trae and Luka

    This is where you can clear up some roster logjams of decent, value young players like Tate, or Christopher and get the player you covet.

    I am looking at who will be the better player, not who will be best coming in.
    Duran is a tank and Chet is a twig.

    I didn’t see any ping pong ball, all I saw is someone open the envelope with a team logo in it.

    Happens every year lol. I didn't notice before but it's very obvious.

    Emoni Bates was supposed to be the next KD now he's mocked somewhere in the 2nd round lol

    It’s just like last year except that instead of franchise cornerstones you’re picking the secondary core player to a championship team. It’s Jalen and whoever this guy ends up being. That determines all the rest of the dominoes. CFans doing it’s hair on fire thing though! Lol.

    “I’m smarter than Stone cuz I would have picked Mobley last year and I know who should be the pick this year DUHH”

    Honestly I was talking to a friend
    and
    Maybe Chet is not the move. . . .esp since Ayton and Gobert were exposed in the playoffs

    Sengun is not our starting center, if we get victor next year we are done tanking.

    Chet is not Ayton or Gobert.
    That’s what makes him special

    Ayton is not that good a defender.

    That’s the encouraging thing. The Magic picking ahead of us at 2 guarantees that they will pick whoever is the bust leaving us with a great player.
