    Assuming Wemby, Scoot, and Miller are the top 3.

    For me, trade the pick if we get solid return. Otherwise, Amen.

    I think it's too early to say. Yeah, Scoot and Miller shouldn't fall to 4 but crazier things have happened.

    Charlotte and Portland have a history of doing odd **** in the draft.

    If those two are gone then yeah, Amen, but it's so early right now.

    Probably copium but I'm hoping we can trade up for 2/3 since Charlotte and TrailBlazers (?) are set on lead guard position.

    Trade it. Since we didn't get Wemby, I don't want another young, undisciplined player on this team. Time to cash in some of those assets and the massive cap space we have.

    Cam or Amen now.
    Watch Wemby try to show everyone he's a bad hambre and have a mishap guarding Le-bron in some shady rec gym.
    I'm just saying, not petty at all.
    SMH we all knew deep down San Antonio was going to get the number 1 pick. It's gross.

    Nobody. You trade this pick. It’s a horrible pick. It’s just as bad as if they landed at 6 in the worst case scenario

    One of the Thompson twins. Athletic freaks with huge wingspans.

    If we aren't trading it then we pick a wing who can shoot. Aside from the a point guard, we desperately need 3 point shooting.

    Amen could be ready for the NBA in a year…maybe Coach Lucas can help him with his shot

    I'll trade it if we can move up and get Scoot. Otherwise, Amen Thompson. Here are his highlights against the organization Jokic came up with:


    18 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists, 5 steals, 4 blocks

    If they want Walker, I'd rather they just stand pat and draft him. I'd be fine with Walker at 4.

    Force Sengun to shoot 3’s and draft Amen Thompson we need playmaking and perimeter defense bad.
