getting a top 10 player is risking the future.... when you'll still be 30-40 million under the cap next year when kobe retires and the cap goes up.. and you'll still have melo to build around for the next 4 years
now i see if you think he's not top 10.... but still... will randle be? are you SURE any of these picks will be?
Melo is not a guy to build around first of all. I'd rather take the risk with the 2nd pick and hope that Randle develops into what I think he can develop into.
