    Yeah, my guess is he passes miller and is the first PF drafted, I thing he will do very well in workouts, he could easily go 3 or 4 imo

    But it takes two to make a thing go right. Do they have someone to make Miller out of sight?

    Are you Rob Base or DJ E-Z Rock?

    Portland will move that pick. They almost have to for Dame

    Not sure Horny's will take Miller as they are still dealing with the Bridges situation?

    If we took Miller, what could we get for Simons?

    Ayton , obviously is getting a new coach, and maybe that's enough moving forward. But he has to play better and be way more consistent for the money he's getting.

    I get it. I'm not down with Ayton either. But many in here and on the radio are. Just saying. Felix Flex, the Phoenix fan and NBA insider told the fellas on Rip City that he's heard stuff flowing around the possibility. But when he said , including the 3 pick, i was like, that's a big No Dog. Get real. Ayton has potential, that might really come out elsewhere. But if we included a pick, it's gonna be one of those future ones unlocked.

    Nice. Well then maybe he shouldn't be considered to be an insider that's interviewed on radio.

    Either way, it's a big no on that 3rd pick for him.

    After a first look through prospect video, Jarace Walker was a favorite of mine. One word -- "bouncy." He's a dude with size and length for forward, playing D, looking for other guys ... a baller. He has work to do, but he's also got several rookie level NBA skills. Comparisons to Paul Millsap don't do Walker's athleticism justice. There are 2-3 forwards with more ready made offense ... lanky guys who fit today's NBA. I've seen the trade proposals with Orlando of Wendell Carter Jr + 6 + 11 for Nurkic and 3. Normally, I'm not a fan of trading down -- at all -- but WCJ > Nurkic and getting Jarace Walker and Gradey Dick would be pretty fun, IMHO ... And this is one of countless reasons why I'm not a GM.

    Simons and future firsts would then go after a ready made SF.

    Going to need a physical center to unseat the top dogs in either conference.
    Ayton has the body and skill its his head that needs a change. He's still only 24.

    I don't see a hat....what I see is the assumption he'll be drafted #2. But I don't translate tweets or Instagram well
