Does Trevor Ariza play more or less hard in Detroit than he did in Phoenix? On the other hand, I'll be surprised if he even reports to the team.
Has Ariza played for every nba team yet? Seems like he’s hit a bunch

Trade back unless someone like Haliburton or Avdija fall.

Take Saddiq Bey, Desmond Bane, or a player who unexpectedly falls like Patrick Williams.

I'm a huge Auburn tigers fan. Watched about 10-15 Okoro games last season. He has the potential to be a top 2 player in this draft. He's very raw but his ability to defend/slash/block shots n his improvement during his freshman year was outstanding. You might have to wait a year or 2 for the body to develop n yes his jumper needs work (but not as much as people tjink) but this is a guy who is a guy who if we somehowwalk away with James Jones would get an A+.

The buzz on him is similar when we drafted Marion...
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

He is a reluctant star. But his transformation from a piece to "the guy" at Auburn was awesome to see. If they had a tournament this guy would have been a top 5 lock.

I'd be surprised if they picked Okoro just because it seems James Jones is terrified of players who can't shoot.

I'm only 15 minutes into ESPN's coverage and I already want to jam pencils into my ears.

I don’t think Gambo has a clue
Yeah naming 6 possible players isn’t really insightful :)
If you look, he actually named 9 players we might take. he is such a clown.

Am I the only one who feels bad for random NBA "experts" if we draft Okoro? They'd probably get confused by him and Okobo.

The Klay injury is going to impact the Warriors' draft plans, I assume.

It's just a media personality. I hope he's not like that off-camera.

Also, I'm a little surprised that there isn't more love for Hayes on this board. I'd love to get a guy like that to learn under CP3 and to take over the position full time in 2 years. In my mind I think at least 2 million of CP3's bloated salary is for player development, since we are too cheap to actually hire top player development personnel.

This and a player like Precious at 16 would be really interesting.

Adam Silver is a gangly human egg.

I dont know who we are drafting, but we'll probably hate it. Unless he's foreign, then we'll think he's great even though he's never done anything.

Enjoy the draft gentlemen.
