First!
We should draft amen. And just sign Bruce brown +backup center …. Run it back (sarcasm)
Not showing up in my feed for some reason had to use the discord link
Is amen better than scoot?
I like Amen also….sheesh tough decisions at #3
Would you be mad if they get Miller?
We might be in the minority relative to the consensus; but, I'm completely with you and all you've said about Amen!
6'6"?….. hard pass
If we want amen might as well trade back to 4 to Houston and try and get a few peices like Tari Eason if possible right? Good wing defender who can play the 3 and 4
I wonder though what is the best package we could get from Houston or even the pistons if we wanted to trade back a couple spots
Could amen be another Stanley Johnson ?
Wait, how are they getting OG and keeping Ant?
I m really high on Amen, he can defend from 1 to 4 and he can run the floor offensively.
Herb Jones could be a very good target even if I don't think it's realistic but New Orleans have a bunch of forward and maybe Daniels will see his minutes increase next year.
Jones is a low cost OG such as DFS.
If Portland choose to trade down (3 for 6&11) I'd like this scenario:
POR : 6&11+Okeke
ORL: 3+Little
POR : Simons+11and maybe 23
TOR: OG+Flynn
Use all the exceptions for a backup C (Reid, Bryant, Hayes) and BPA between Bruce Brown, Lonnie Walker or at least Burks
Man you're really selling me on Amen. I still like Miller tho
If they were the same age, who would you pick between Wemby or Hakeem pre-NBA? Why?
Long-term after next year could you see Dame/Sharpe/Amen/Grant/Nurk etc being the starting lineup with Ant shifting back to a 6th man role?
If Sharpe was in this draft and had dominating stats as a Wildcat frosh; for 3rd pick, who would you pick between him, Scoot, Miller or Thompson? Why?
Andrew Wiggins would be perfect at SF
Don’t like ppl say millier is better shooter, off ball tactics shd be noted
If the blazers want Thompson shouldn’t they trade down to fourth with Houston and get some additional value out of it? Houston would obviously understand what the blazers are trying to do, but would it matter that much? The blazers could just play poker and say “if you’re not trading with us we’re taking Miller at three” (assuming that Houston wants Miller)
