Minny wants a veteran big though for the pick

 

[CameronCrazy06]

I heard they wanted a SF and that's why there were all those talks with Granger. Neither of those teams have a vetran big man lol.

 

[The Young One]

Idk they need a lot of pieces...we'll see on draft night.

Selby/Brooks/Klay thompson are rising up well too on draft boards.

Hoping to hear Norris Cole's name called in the first round.. I think he can be a difference maker in the NBA. Fastest player in the draft, athletic, good range, excellent defender and he's got a sick flat top lol. Apparently the combine has lifted him on boards.

Minny wants a veteran big though for the pick

i heard they called the lakers

assuming it was for Odom

but i have no link. heard it on the radio

 

[elcheato]

What would your opinion on that be considering you have already stated the Clippers made the right decision to give up their lottery pick in a weak draft..

 

[Mexi]

when the clippers get Austin Rivers....

and i dont know. Enchilada is similar to Odom, no? maybe i'd do it
i'd do it if they threw in Flynn. we give them someone else too

if it isnt odom and is instead pau, then no way

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Clips won't have a high enough pick to get Rivers, especially if they trade for Iggy.

I pretty much have my dream draft figured out.

Find a way to land Davis Bertans or Jeremy Tyler in the first (buy a pick?), then use our 2nd on a guy like Robin Benzing.

Clips pick next year is Minnesota's unprotected 1st rounder

i think the chances of minnesota sucking next year are pretty good

 

[DJT]

Yeah Minny is in for another bad year most likely, even with Derrick.

 

[Mexi]

wolves want pau for the 2 pick
crazy

 

[DJT]

Also heard McGee for the #2 pick.

 

[Mexi]

lol mcgee and pau
so stupid

i mean mcgee would be good for them, but how dare they dangle it for pau

 

[Elite]

Why would they even want Pau, him and Love starting wouldn't work

 

[elcheato]

Maximizing value. Pau is definitley more valuable then the #2 pick. Plus they don't have their pick so they need to win more.

 

[DJT]

Just watched a workout video from the Kings. They brought in Tobias Harris, Jimmer Fredette, Josh Harrelson and some others. But those 3 looked real good, all 3 were draining everything.

 

[elcheato]

Lot of talk saying Jonas Valanciunas could go at #4 with the Cavs 2nd pick. He'd be worth a risk imo.. 19 years old, one of the few legit centers in the draft. Lots of room to grow.

 

[RipCity32]

If I had #1 and #4, you might as well take a high risk with the second pick.
Take him, you might get the best two players in the draft.

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Valanciunas only if Kanter is gone.
