    How do you figure? The top 3, Ivey, Murray and Daniels?

    I can't see the guy with the biggest superstar potential in the draft falling out of the top six and that's Sharpe. I know today a lot of people had him falling to us but I just really doubt that happens. If it did, taking Sharpe would definitely be the homerun swing that people are saying Cronin wants to take. I don't think Murray is that homerun swing, to be honest. I think if Murray is there the bigger swing would be trading back to 13 and 15 where you take the two guys with the highest ceilings.

    Or you lose out on a stud and grab a Swanigan and a Travis Outlaw. Use the 7th pick and rely on your scouting to make a good pick.

    Then take Sharpe and let him play and reassess mid-season. He's been compared to Anthony Edwards.

    I wouldn't trade that for a role player.

    Just my view. Seems like Daniels is rising, and there's lots of film on Murray and Ivey, whereas Sharpe is just an enigma. I just have a gut feeling that teams are going to shy away from him, and he'll be the guy sitting there at 7.

    I can't see the Blazers passing on an efficient-scoring power forward who can shoot 40% on 3-pointers (Murray) if he's available.

    Hello,

    When was the last champion that didn't have a starter or near 6th man providing a significant impact on the court on a rookie contract?

    Dallas?

    It seems to me, if we want to compete, we need one. No tram will ever trade one, so we need to hit in the draft.

    I would like us to try to trade down for 9 and 20 or 25( havent a clue on that)
    And use the 9 in the draft. Use 20 and Bledsoe and for go Grant.

    Daniels’ comment on Ingles: “ … plays the right way.” Basic. Not an earth-shaking comment, but I like hearing exactly that. Daniels and Murray sound right.

    Very chill dude. His demeanor and accent reminds me of Giannis.
