Charlotte will be interesting... They could make a leap into the top 4-5 teams of the East next season. Happy to see it, seems like McDermott would be their guy
Not sure, i think they will take a shooter. Maybe even trade back for more picks. It will be interesting. They seriously need a SG and their isn't one of note at that slot. I can see them going best player available even if it is a PG. Maybe Marcus Smart. I think Lance Stephenson is their FA target.

They hardly play Henson and Sanders was hurt all year last season, so if they have a shot at Embiid at 2 you take him.

Worst case scenario is putting Sanders at the 4 and having Embiid at the 5 which would be :wow: on the defensive end

was thinking the best twin towers scenario is the Sixers, Noel could roam a little more at the 4 with Embiid anchoring the middle

its not concrete at any slot, which is what i like about any NFL or NBA draft

After all the shyt Larry Sanders pulled last season, if I'm bringing in a top 2 pick and a future of my franchise, I don't want Larry Sanders anywhere near that player.
Larry Sanders for the 8th Pick that the Kings have?

EDIT: Nevermind... good luck with them trading that contract

He is making 11 mil and they like Sanders. Seriously, Milwaukee should be much better just by Gianiss growing and Wiggins presence. Still gonna be average.

41st was the worsest turf on the earth...
I don't think it's that easy to be honest with you.

They could always try the Greek Freak at 2 and put Parker at the 3.

Knight
Giannis
Parker
Henson
Sanders

or

Knight
Wiggins
Giannis
Henson
Sanders

:patrice:

I think they gotta go wit Wiggins. Giannis is a way more natural 3 than 2 and the length on that front line wit Wiggins at the 2 would be their calling card for years.

As much as people talk about it being a toss up with Wiggins, Embiid and Parker, I think as we get closer to the draft, Embiid will emerge as the clear pick at number one. I really wanted that for the Bucks. Haven't seen a big that talented on both ends since Hakeem. I would argue he's better than Hakeem at the same age. It's a no brainer.

Bradley's an RFA, so he wouldn't be involved anyway.

I don't see the point in adding Green where there's already a logjam at SF, one that I'd preferably wanna see Shabazz as starter
I think Minny will trade him at the deadline unless someone blows them away with an offer.
