    DX has him at the top of the second round. You need to go school them.

    Am I the only one who thinks Joseph young will be better than CJ?

    I like him better defensively than Stanley Johnson.

    RHJ is mean.

    He's gonna be a more athletic PJ Tucker, if he falls to us we need to pick him up.

    With where we pick, combined with his down year I think I'd move RJ Hunter back to the top of my list, especially with the career-altering injury that Wes sustained.

    The first two years RJ shot 40% from three and that has dropped to 30% this year. This is simply a down year and if he shot like he did in the previous two years he'd be a top-10 guy.

    Trade up if needed, Neil!

    How about Will Cummings from Temple? He isn't a great 3 point shooter but very good at taking the ball to the rim, a scoring guard but also a smart player and a good decision maker.

    He's only 6'2 and is terribly inefficient... his shooting numbers are .393/.186/.779

    He'd be lucky to make a D-League squad with numbers like that.

    I've seen him against Uconn and he was their best player in a win.

    If we're looking to get a Wes replacement I think we need a defense first player. Someone who is very strong.

    If GP2 declares for the draft I'd love to get him.

    I really want to draft RHJ with our pick. I know he can't shoot, but his defense is amazing and we can always use more slashers.

    Another P12 player I really like is Delon Wright. He's an all-around player who controls the game without shooting. With Blake getting up there in age, Portland should be targeting a backup PG of the future.

    Yeah, I've been interested in Wright as well. He's shown he can shoot, and he's a very tall PG.

    Pac 12 has some great players this season. It's an exciting year.

    I want Kaminsky with our pick... dude is a stud! I would also love to get Sabonis, but he won't be declaring for the draft.

    I'm not too impressed with kaminsky. He gets abused pretty bad on D everytime I watch him.

    Fun fact: I just talked to an Austrian, and Jakob Poetlt is actually pronounced....
    Yakub Pettul. Funny, because I was pronouncing it Poe-ee-tul.
