    Btw ... #Blazers owner Paul Allen is not attending today's predraft workout, which features 1st-round target Kelly Olynyk.

    Smokescreen! This proves how much Paul Allen wants him. Very shrewd. ;)

    DO we really want Olynk though? Isn't he exactly what we don't want?

    Olynyk lumped in with the 2nd round scrubs.

    Meanwhile, Caldwell-Pope was lumped in with surefire Hall of Famers like Abdul Gaddy, Elijah Johnson, Brandon Davies, Sherwood Brown and Jared Bergrren.

    Zeller and McCollums agents told them not to workout with anybody.

    I'm willing to bet Olynyk ran a clinic today with these misfits, just like I hope Caldwell-Pope did as well.

    If you can't trade up for Ben McLemore. Get out of this draft.

    One was undrafted and the other wasn't even drafted by the Spurs but was toiling away in the D-League. How about we just get some scouts and can spot D-League and Overseas talent?

    Exactly. Find elite shooters that are passable on d and highly coachable and create a system that gets them good looks.

    1. Is Burke a future All-Star? Ford: No. Bilas: Yes.
    2. Can MCW end up as the best PG in the draft? Ford: Yes, if he gets a jump shot. Bilas: Yes, if he gets a jump shot.
    3. Is McCollum the next Steph Curry? Ford: No. Bilas: No.
    4. After those three, is Shane Larkin the next-best PG prospect? Ford: Yes. Bilas: No. Bilas likes Schroeder better, and Ford thinks he has the highest upside.

    POR should find a way to get the #13 from DAL, maybe a couple 2nd's, rights to Papanikalau, take on Vince Carter's salary?

    Take a SG at #10 Muhammed\KCP\McCollum in that order and then a defensive\ready to contribute right away big man in Dieng or Withey at #13. Use 2nd round pick on a guy like CJ Leslie (Muscala, D.Thomas, Mbakwe, Davies) if he is there

    Still have some cap space to go after a FA....

    Wow, that Larkin guy has shot up to the 14th pick on Draftexpress and NBADraft.net. I remember when we wanted to get him with one of our second rounders.

    Even though I disagree on most players (I like McCollum, Withey), I agree with the idea of trading some cap-space for the 13th pick.
