Smooth sailing from here on out...
Thunder could send Micic, 12, & whatever to the Pelicans to move to 8. Don't know what the Pelicans would consider a win now player looking at their roster though since 99% of them doing anything beyond 1st round requires Zion to stay healthy
Their GM went & watched Micic a week & change ago & that would be the Thunder moving up for Sharpe potentially who they seem to be linked to quite a bit.

Short of moving up, it’s hard for the Pels to botch a move down the board. They truly should just go BPA and make corresponding moves to not bury their pick (in other words, if they grab Sharpe or Daniels, move Lewis already)Thunder could send Micic, 12, & whatever to the Pelicans to move to 8.

Micic ain't got that type of value. Dort does.Thunder could send Micic, 12, & whatever to the Pelicans to move to 8. Don't know what the Pelicans would consider a win now player looking at their roster though since 99% of them doing anything beyond 1st round requires Zion to stay healthy

Julius Randle clogs up the offense, is not a particularly good defender and he's too expensive.
In my opinion though, moving Randle won't cure all of New York's problems. I think the Knicks have to play at a faster pace and take advantage of some of their youth. And I'm not entirely sure that Tom Thibodeau is the answer in that respect. Thibs has always been known to create defense-focused teams that grind wins out. I think that can work in the current NBA when you have a supreme talent or you're able to generate fast breaks off that suffocating defense. But the Knicks haven't gotten to that point.
Keeping Randle might allow the Knicks to be a middling team. But he's not going to elevate them into serious contenders.

Time to go!!
Kenyon Martin Jr wants out of Houston. The person who broke the news said teams have expressed interest in him. I don’t expect anything significant in return. He’s overachieved his draft position

At this point rockets keeping the 26th pick with KMJ wanting to leave, also when we getting an off season thread?
Sacramento Kings
The Kings are becoming increasingly comfortable drafting at No. 4 in Thursday’s draft and have described a steep price for teams behind them in the lottery who are attempting to trade up, sources said. Sacramento general manager Monte McNair has engaged in conversations around Hawks forward John Collins — among a slew of other established, productive players in the market — but there has been no involvement of the No. 4 pick in the discussions centered on Collins, and McNair will ultimately make the decision on the pick, according to sources.

Usually the season thread is made after the draft.

I hope they don't make the mistake of drafting Ivey, praying teams will continue to make big offers for him after the draft only for the deals to dry up and now you have a pissed off Ivey stuck with the Kings.

@Flex Grossman once they're done, wrap this up.

Underrated aspect of the draft: if Pacers fans think moving up to get Ivey is realistic, Sacramento can milk out even more value from the Pacers than the did in the Sabonis trade. I'm asking for Brissett, #6 and a top 4 protected first.
