Grade The Draft

If you are gonna include 2nd round picks, I'm sure almost every team has a trend of picking a certain position every year.

 

Interesting to see who we could get that is better than Koufos that would cost us a role player and a second round pick

 

Jefferson, Pekovic, Splitter.

 

Brian,
You're the cap expert, but I believe this to be correct.
Trading for a 1st round pick automatically comes with a cap hold. 2nd rounders do not. So, we can use our cap space and then sign our 2nd rounders. We would have diminished cap space if we traded for Gobert (or anyone else) in the 1st round.

Of course, we could trade for them later, but it doesn't sound like that is in the works.

 

None of the above. They will all cost significantly more in salary. Two are restricted free agents who probably aren't real options

So Jefferson at 10-11 million or Koufos at 3 million a second rounder and a player like Freeland

 

Freeland is negative value, not positive. Please tell me what you think we could have offered to beat Memphis.

 

OK. You win!

 

Dalembert would be a better fit.

 

How so? so we can play our way out of the star studded draft next year and maybe into the 8th seed?

 

That sounds like what you're suggesting with Koufas.

 

well, all 3 of our 2nd round picks were better than Memphis'

Arthur averaged 6/3 in 16 mpg with a 11.8 PER

Freeland's numbers are worse, but not much
Barton
Claver
the Greek

 

Plus Koufas rhymes with Doofus.

 

Koufos could have grown with the team.

 

So can Leonard and even Withey for that matter.

 

I don't think second rounders hold much value at all, particularly in this draft. I can't count how many eurostashes were drafted in the second just because everyone else was so "meh".

And taking on Freeland's deadweight is just horrible. Also probably the Nuggets just like Arthur.

 

Damian Lillard is undersized for a point guard? He is virtually the same damn height as McCollum. Did this guy even look him up before writing that?

 

Doesn't say Dame is undersized for a PG. Says he isn't big for a PG

 

Well that's pretty absurd. He's 6'3.

 

which is it MM? our defense is gonna suck because of cj, so isnt that a good thing according to you? so we get a better pick?

koufos would have helped us win more games next year no? do you think he is worse than dalembert? wouldnt he also ruin our chance of getting a better pick?

wtf are you on man
