    Man! I'm excited. I don't watch College Basketball much so I only see highlights, but you can see the talent in Simons.

    Does this mean we're letting Napier go elsewhere?

    We dont need another guard, especially one with no upside.

    Its not like there is a starting caliber player for us here anyway. I don’t mind the upside pick.

    Melvin Frazier another guy who could fall to second round. Do you have the cash plus a future 2nd ready, Olshey?

    Well he is young and full of potential. Might be good trade bait in the next year.

    Hes 6'4, but yeah, we love those. Or white big men.

    It's predictable.

    Good. If there was one thing I felt we needed as I watched Portland get swept in the playoffs it was a 19 year old guard out of prep school.

    “Look, Anfernee worked out extremely well for us. So well we invited him twice, we’ve been following his career with great interest. Now, will he make an immediate impact? It’s possible but let’s pump the breaks... we will develop him and go from there. See y’all during summer league.”
