Bored Silly - How About The Draft?!?

[SameOldNudityDrew]

It's weird, but we've honestly got too many good players on this team to care that much about this draft!

We could try to trade the #17 and #31 pick for a future first, but we'd need to find a team we can be sure will be bad enough that we'll get a pick better than #17, which is a little risky. Who do you guys think might be in the market and will suck in the next few years?

Assuming we can't do that, I expect we'll draft a big forward with upside at #17 and then maybe try to turn that #31 into a few future seconds. I put almost no hope in Miller and Minott at this point, so go ahead and draft someone who might become what we'd hoped they'd become.

I'm assuming we let NAW go, which makes me sad because I really love that guy, but I get it from a financial standpoint. We need to see if we can develop Clark and TSJ too, and there's definitely some promise there.

Hopefully Dillingham gets more burn this year, though I'm honestly a little worried about him. He's so small and his shooting motion still looks kinda awkward to me. I wish he planted his feet more straight, released the ball on the way up rather than at the apex, and didn't drift so much with his feet in the air. If Connelly and the coaching staff have enough of an impression of Dillingham to lower their expectations for him even lower than his trade value would be right now, it might be a good idea to at least look to see if it might be possible to get a different replacement for Conley by giving up those picks and Dillingham. I have no idea who that would be, but I'm a little worried about Dillingham.

I thought I read something where Connelly didn't see a huge difference between 17 and 31... so why not opt for the cheaper option and end up paying closer to the league minimum for the next 4 years... and get more trade value from #17...
