Anything else interesting get said in the speeches? I was at the parade but bounced to a bar after the jok/Murray truck went by.

We’re about to lose 5 maybe 6 guys…

Jeff Green

Deandre Jordan

Ish Smith

Reggie Jackson

Thomas Bryant

And unless he’s still drunk Brucie B

Malone has got to get comfortable with the idea of playing Zeke and Watson bigger minutes.

And he may have to play another rookie this year too. He played CB a bunch this year so maybe he’s turning over a new leaf.

We need a backup big for Jokic. We need a backup guard for Murray. We need a big 3 and D guy.

Who should we target in the draft? Who might be in range with our later picks?

Who do you think we should take in free agency? Who is out there?

And don’t get me wrong, I would love for Brucie B to stay but I can’t see him leaving all that paper on the table.

Possible Bruce replacements I like: gabe Vincent (probably out of our price range tho), Cory Joseph, Dennis smith jr, javonte green

Possible Jeff replacements: Jae crowder (no idea what kind of offers he’s gonna get after last year), joe ingles, and I could see Jeff just staying too

Possible DJ replacements: jock landale, dewayne Dedmon, robin lopez

I know nothing about this draft class after the first few guys, but I trust Calvin.

Mal/CoJo/Collin
KCP/Braun/
MPJ/Jeff/ingles
AG/Pwatt/vlatko
Jok/Landale

Jae crowder and landale would be good affordable pick ups. We are going to bring in one or two rookies next year with our picks. I think Wattson is going to get a lot of burn next season

Looks like we have acquired from the Pacers the 29th and 32nd picks on Thursday in exchange for the 40th and the least desirable of the three 1sts we have next year

So now we have 3 picks: 29, 32, and 37

I like the move—more picks to fill out the rotation/bench

We need at least one of these guys to be ready to take some minutes like what CB did this year

I trust what brass does with the picks because they’ve been hitting on a bunch of those over the years

I doubt we use all three, I suspect we are trading at least two of those picks to move further up in the first.

I haven’t done a second of research on any of these draft dudes after like the top 3. shyt is different when you’re actually making a deep playoff run.

I’m just gonna trust Calvin. He hit with Braun last year, and it sounds like he was a big voice in all of TC’s draft picks.

I wouldn’t be mad at that especially if we’re able to get someone we’re high on :leon:

I think Calvin is filling out the rooster with guys that will be able to contribute this year if Malone allows them they will all be big athletic and long with solid fundamentals
