IDK. Thibbs first season was a failure. Coaches generally get two years to show something or they are fired. I think Thibbs will be moving into "win now" mode next year and he'll be making moves for established players. There isn't any security in this league unless you win. I can't see him just crossing his fingers and hoping his young guys get a little better next year. Expect some moves. And our pick is one of the few assets that could bring us back a good player.

Most years I would agree. And I'm predicating this on getting into the top 3. If we do that, I want the draft pick unless we get an offer we simply can't refuse.

Exactly. We should be done with the bottoming-out-to-stock-up-on-high-lotto-picks phase. We've got our show horses, now we need to go get some plow horses....(er, or something like that!).

Wait, I thought we already had two of those guys in Wiggins and KAT! Or so I thought we did!
But alas, it's always the next draft that will cure our ills! Oi vey....
I know what you mean, but we need more good veteran players. Can't stop trying now.
There. I fixed it for you above.
I have no problem with a high lottery pick, so long as we auction it off to the highest bidder.
Lottery picks become veterans eventually. Hopefully KAT and Wig can by our go to vets as early as next year.
May be, may be not. All I know is that if you put a top 3 PG pick on this squad, they will expect to start day one. Great, so now we have a rookie PG QB'ing the offense while facing a murderer's row of vet PGs night in and night out. Another season out the window, kicking the can down the road again. No thanks!
