    Bulls aren’t trading that pick away. The only way Suns could get him is if he falls to around 12-13 and is available with Clippers pick. Nobody is moving out of top 10.

    I think Trae goes to Orlando. They badly need a point guard and he could start from the from the go.

    I meant for the #1 pick. They'd trade it for the #1 pick, fo sho. (It's the SUNS who wouldn't do that.)

    That's what people seem to think, but it seems a shame. Orlando is such a shambles of an organization now and he BELONGS in Phoenix.

    He's my second favorite Euro in this draft after Doncic.

    $20 says the Spurs draft him.

    What are your views on Rodions Kurucs?

    If everyone can shoot threes, why are they still worth three points?

    I love watching prospects but feel like I’m wasting my time this year. I’d be surprised if we kept the pick. Same feeling I had in 2015. I remember hoping we’d hold onto RHJ but when we didn’t I wasn’t surprised.

    I feel the same. Seems like Neil made it pretty clear that it was for sale.

    ESPN mock on right now had us taking Chandler Hutchison (Boise st) at 24.

    I don’t follow college basketball. Opinions? Woj says Hutchison has shut down his draft process. Not meeting with anymore teams/workouts, etc. Says Hutchison has been promised by a team in the 20’s that they’d take him if there. Said it could be Portland

    I think our main moves this offseason will come on draft night. The TPE has the most value to Portland if it’s used to collect draft picks. I know the league is trying to dump money but outside of a Courtney Lee I just can’t see any contract worth taking on, and even that one is questionable. We’d be much better served collecting another first and using it in a package for a player or better prospect. Not sure we even use the MLE. I think that’s dependent on what they get done in trades.

    It's still fun to analyze who you think will turn out good but yeah last year with 3 picks was awesome.

    Agreed. In the 2015 draft thread that was bumped, I think I saw a quote from olshey talking about it as an asset, and it sounded similar to his comments this year
