Who do you think Houston should take? Try to be a fan or the GM for the team, rather than who you want to have them take based on your Blazers fandom. Tomorrow morning I'll set up another poll with the results factored in . Atlanta: Alex Sarr, France Washington: Zacharie Risacher, France Houston San Antonio Detroit Charlotte Portland San Antonio Memphis Utah Chicago Oklahoma City Sacramento Portland
I went with Reed Sheppard. The dude had an amazing season shooting the basketball and his advanced stats are tremendous. Regardless of need, every team can use more shooting and there's a chance that he's going to be able to keep being good at everything like he was at Kentucky. edited to compensate for brain cramp. Thanks, Iawai'a
Pretty much always I'm for taking the BPA, but lots of times it seems draft day decisions are based on the immediate needs of the roster. Van Vleet, Green and Amen need minutes and they aren't forwards. Sheppard would be redundant to Fred VV who they just gave a huge contract to. Castle would be redundant to Amen. Dillon Brooks and Cam Whitmore are the SFs... they could be subplanted. I could also see them wanting another athletic Big for their rotation. If they don't trade out and draft on need, I see them taking Buzelis or Clingan. I went with Buzelis STOMP
Houston is going to trade the #3 pick to the Blazers for #14, and a can of magic sparkle dust. I sure love listening to the local podcasts. Blazer fans learn so much about the inner workings of the NBA.
