    OP flips flop like a fish out of water.

    Man literally made a thread a week or so ago saying no to drafting more young players and trading out.

    Didn't Dan Langhi light it up during his workout and summer league? How many years was he in the league?

    Dont forget preseason is important as well. Here is Cato spending all of his money on clothes that are worthless now.

    Wouldn’t mind the Rockets taking a shot on him. That shooting was impressive.

    I really don't like this draft after pick 13.

    The only guys who are even remotely interesting are Lively, Miller and Cool Baby.

    Although I do have Nick Smith Jr as a potential to drop.

    Lively would be the perfect backup to Alp and offer the potential to roll out double or triple big lineups. With Jabari, Alp and Lively.
    Edey could be a great backup too, but he doesn’t offer the spacing Lively does (even though he was drilling them in his proday)

    Why limit him to being a backup? If he’s Tyson Chandler with a 3 ball, he should start! We have too many defenders on this team, so we gotta balance it out

    He could probably start with Alp if he makes his 3s consistently but he shouldn’t start over the current best player on the team.

    You don’t know how good he’ll be! Maybe he’s trash and would be Bamba, idk. I also don’t think Sengun is gonna be on this team much longer. I do feel like there’ll be interest in Brook Lopez, who would definitely start. They just need to decide on their direction. You gotta go all in and build around Sengun or move on.

    Sooner or later DD has to get one right, wouldn’t you think? Maybe LIvely’s the guy. It’ll be interesting when he gets one right whether he’ll be humble or insufferable about it.

    His theoretical skillset can play with Alp and be a great backup with a change is skillsets.
    You can think that all you want, it’s not happening. Gonna have to accept Alp is a big part of the future

    I’m telling you man lol. You saw Indiana get Sabonis up outta there. I don’t like Lively and Sengun together as much bc of foot speed. I think he’s gone within 2 years. If they decide to keep him, they have to go all in.

    Ime isn’t Indiana. And Indiana is worse off for it.

    So you want a 7+ footer that has elite foot speed, switch ability, 3 pt shooting and lob threat/rim runner?
    Let me know when you find that
