I like the idea of trading down for any 2 of these guys: Kaminsky, Tyus Jones, Harrell, jerian grant, rondae hollis-jefferson.

I'm really liking Jones, grant, and HJ. Harrell and kaminsky are two bigs who intrigue me.


I take a Winslow or Oubre. We have so many young players now that trading down for more role player type guys doesn't make much sense to me. Try to hit another home run like the Lavine pick. Look at our team now. Wiggins, Lavine, Bazz, Payne, AB, Dieng and GR3. That's 7 players from the last 2 drafts. Most of those guys project as role players/rotation guys so I think we should take a guy we think can be more than that.

Yeah we need a star with this next draft pick. Okafor is going to fit really well.

So, if the top-five guys are gone? I take Mario or WCS.

Lol, you're not wavering on that optimism are you?

Mario and oubre are the top 2 I avoid. WCS is also a prospect I'm timid on. I think he thrived being a one dimensional guy surrounded with talent. His one dimension would certainly fit with our GRP of bugs though so I see where your coming from there.

I think the jersey has already been stenciled.

You may be right. Its possible that Adam silver sees the value in having 30 competing teams, rather than 4-8 big market teams. With all the gambling talk it would make sense to have all teams competitive. Maybe just maybe his first draft move is to pull the anti stern and rig it for the wolves!

Your consistent optimism is pulling me towards the #1 wagon.

to me it has always been and will remain a 2 man draft for us.

Towns and Hezonja.

Can and Wild, what can you tell me about "Super Mario"? I haven't seen him play once and am not overly excited about the couple things I've read. What does he bring to the table for this team? Have you guys seen him play or have a link to a source with an in depth report on him?
