    Serious post. Why can’t I see the Reddit posts?

    LOL, my bad, just saw the screenshot of "top 8 movement" and completely forgot Brooklyn has 8, Toronto 9. Ok, Barrett and 9 for Simons and 11!

    I'm unsure. I believe @tlongII was having the same issue. Maybe they got theirs resolved?

    Sly suggested that I load the Reddit app, but I’m not going to do that.

    Have you looked on your ad blocker or cookie settings and set them to allow Reddit?

    And that is why I appreciate your takes 'Sergeant Shultz'. You have your opinions and own up to things you missed on. Props. :cheers:

    I like Fleming, but think he would be a reach at #11. That said, from what I can find, Portland is the only team he has done a full workout for.

    I don't even think he was invited to the green room. If true, he's likely to go late teens/twenties.

    1. Is Fleming a forward only, or could he effectively play as a small ball, back-up 5 (along with forward minutes, eventually)? If so, then I could abandon using a 2nd 1st rounder on Maxime Raynaud.

    2. Even with the extra year with Barrett (vs. Ant), moving up in front of Toronto and Houston is a good thing … and not keeping Ant beyond one more year.

    Blazers only Draft Queen if they have a deal to trade Ayton or longshot -- DC so i think chances ( if he is even there ) of the Blazers taking him is slim and none.

    I think he could play a lot of small ball 5. He rotated to the 5 when his team's starting 5 sat this past season but he did go to a mid-major D1 school.

    Deni and Jabari did it last year. I don't see why Fleming couldn't.
