I just want for the day to pass and when I find out about the draft there's a roster that makes sense.

I’ve never had less of a clue what I want the Suns to do in a draft in my life. We acquired the 10th pick while I’m on vacation and I haven’t really gotten the chance to look much into any guys in that range.

I think the one guy I don’t want is Derek Queen. Carter Bryant or Cedric Coward seem safe, but don’t help that much with our size issues. I think Sorber might be my top guy at the 5, but I’m not exactly sold on him.

The lead guards all intrigue me, but they all have some pretty strong bust potential.

I’m just gonna roll with what happens I think.

My guess is we draft Danny Wolf though.

Imma go ahead and call my shot and say we draft Carter Bryant tonight. Also think we trade Grayson as well.

Actually, the rumor is that in order to increase attention and profits, Ishiba's going to rebuild the team around Booker with 11 midget SGs, and change the name to the Phoenix Lollipop Kids. Oz will be the new name and theme of the Arena, and the players will be paid in candy and rainbows. The defensive strategy will apparently focus on ankle biting.

Would be nice to move Grayson for a late first.

Also...Does the #10 pick tonight put on a suns hat or a rockets hat since the trade can't be made official till July 6th?

Carter Bryant supposedly measured 6'6" without shoes so fitting we'd select him

Gambo wants CMB. I don't know, I'd be kind of underwhelmed with an undersized 4 that can't shoot and he's just too small for the 5. I don't like the Draymond comp, I think we need more size and athleticism in the frontcourt. I do like the passing and defensive versatility but I think he's a reach at 10.

Gambo 5 assuming Maluach isn't available

CMB
Essengue
Queen
Newell
Bryant

So we're probably taking one of these dudes.

On a flight back from CA where I spent the last few weeks. I'll be tuning in tonight. I think we go with Carter Bryant at 10. Unsure of 29 as I'm not that familiar with back of the round guys.
Go Suns!

Safe to say if he wants them number 1, that's the Suns feeling also.

Sounds like Essengue is pretty sure the Raptors are taking him at 9.

I think the height stuff is a little overplayed. OKC routinely rolled out 1-big lineups where the other guys were all between 6-2 and 6-6 (SGA, Wallace, Dort, Caruso, Wiggins, even J-Dub). It about how big they play and how well they recover on the perimeter.

To your point, though, Booker and Green don't play big or recover well, so we're already at a disadvantage.
Precious Achiuwa, Dalano Banton, Batum, Chris Boucher, Amir Coffey, Tre Jones, Laravia, Mamukelashvili, Tre Mann, De'Anthony Melton, Minott, Nance, Chris Paul, T. Prince, Reed, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl, Tate, Watford, Yabusele
