    I feel that KAT gave Jokic more problems than Rudy did

    Given this team is already one of the better defensive teams in the nba, a knock down movement shooter seems more valuable for this team given our offensive woes.

    So ya Shepard seems like a pick that would provide more immediate impact.

    We don't even know the exact terms of that supposed deal... how are you going to say he tried to give up the farm?

    Were any of the picks protected? Were there swaps? How many picks? Details matter.

    Don't laugh at Koncak. The dude was able to make a fairly long NBA career by standing around the basket.

    Lopez shoot 36% from 3 and 80% FT. Clingan took two 3pt shots in two years and shot 58% FT.

    They have little in common other than both are tall and white.

    Which way are you leaning with the pick?

    Biggest thing I learned from these playoffs is that you have a huge chance to win it all if you have two elite late game shot makers in your roster.

    Rox best regular season in history was because of two hof guards, shame for injuries. Mavs rebuilt it faster than we did and y'all want to talk about adding slow footed big to another slow footed big smh...

    Not sure whose stock is upped. But Gobert/Towns 0-3 surely downed Clingan’s stock.

    The Rockets are actually lacking size on their team.

    Sure wish Stone had traded for Kyrie.

    I hope Stone trades for Mitchell and Williamson and I dont like fat guys on the team.

    I would give up Green # 3 and a future 2nd. For Williamson I would give up Jabari and a future 1st.

    2 star level bucket getters that can break droughts. Kind of like a less healthy Luka/Kyrie.

    Risacher or Sheppard
    And I guess Topic after that

    Anyone else, gonna have to explain to my dumbass why.

    Wait, we took tiny Rob Dillingham…at 3?
    Wait, we took Ron Holland?
    Clingan? So are we trading Sengun or…?
    Castle? Didn’t we just take Castle last year?
    We just took Buzelis over Sheppard?

    They aren’t taking Knecht, Williams or Carter at 3 but I’m kinda intrigued. ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯
