Am I making the Lakers pick? Didn't they trade it for Schroder?

Technically I think they have to make the pick themselves and then trade...so you can pick for OKC? Or jonh can tell you who to pick, haha

(note - this is what I think will happen)

I was gonna take Vernon Carey Jr for Dallas!

With the 31st pick, the Mavs take:

Grant Riller

The Mavs are in early win-now mode and can't afford a risky guy like Jaden McDaniels. They need shooting and shot creation from the gurad spot. Riller will be just fine playing off of Doncic with his ability to shoot and put the ball on the floor. I also considered Killian Tillie and Zeke Nnaji, but ultimately I think a small guard would help the Mav's rotation more.

So you think we'll be 2nd in the league behind Luka and the Mavs? :)

So are we actually doing the second round? Most of us probably won't have enough attention span to devote to this I assume. Congrats OG, this was awesome.

Also, I didn't realize there were two Beys in this draft.

Ya I think we can scrap round 2, actual draft is starting soon and I doubt we actually get through it...plus so many picks will change hands

Williams and Okoro jumping up obviously pushed other guys down, Knicks were a lock for Toppin if he fell and he did. Still surprised the Cavs passed on him. Stewart went a lot higher than most people thought, Maxey dropped, Knicks prob reached on Quickley, Bane and Terry dropped as well. Ring got it right with Nesmith tho.
