    Yeah, I don't like that argument.

    We need talent upgrade and the draft is the best way to do that.

    FA don't choose Portland unless we overpay or they are out of options, so if the draft gets you the best talent upgrade, do it through the draft. If it's FA, then do it. If it's D league....so on
