Still think Wiseman and Edwards will be gone.  Don't want Lamelo.  Still if Wiseman is there I seriously doubt we pass on him.

In that case I would go with Toppin

GSW have been linked to being "interested in Dwight Howard"..

so they are probably not looking to draft Wiseman then, huh? I think he will be available when we pick unless they trade their pick to someone who loves him and scoops him up right before us.. that would just be perfect, right?

For once everything would fall into place. FOR ONCE.

Starting to think we just take Edwards, Wiseman or Ball and go with it.  Ball has made some comments about being his own man and he has ridiculous talent.  Lets say he becomes another Lonzo...I am ok with that honestly.  We can look at a big early round 2 or look to add one in FA.  Just take one of those 3.

Yeah Ball will need to improve defensively and shot selection but he is really young.  His upside is crazy.

Also I think Golden State might pick Avdija if they stay at 2.  If Ball goes one we could have a hellva decision to make.

If Ball goes #1 it will be easy decision.. I doubt that though

I seriously doubt GSW keep the pick - it will 99% be traded to a team like NY or someone and we just gotta hope the team that jumps up has the hots for Ball and not Wiseman ::fingers crossed::

When it comes to crap like that, it always seems like the team trying to trade out of the position never does for some reason. I'm hopeful they do.

idk, I have heard we might move up from #3 to #2 or even #1.. also Chicago might be trying to hop over us..

Speaking on the latest Bulls Talk Podcast with K.C. Johnson, Tom Haberstroh said he’s expecting Karnišovas to pursue a move up in his first draft as executive vice president of basketball operations. “I think [Karnišovas] might move up, because I think No. 1 with Minnesota and No. 2 (with Golden State) is going to be readily available,” Haberstroh said. “I would be surprised if you didn’t see Charlotte (at No. 3) or Chicago move up in the draft.”

Do they think Weisman can turn into that potential superstar? If so, woof. That's gonna take some capital man. Yikes.

I think Wiseman has more potential than anyone on our roster.. I think at best he could be a poor mans AD; at worst a rich mans Deandre Jordan; but ultimately he will be a Bosh clone..

inject that onto our current roster and by next year we will be fighting for a middle of the road playoff spot and solidify ourselves as a playoff team for the next 8 years.. That also makes us a little more attractive in FA and we could potentially land someone to compliment him.. sprinkle in the development of PJ, Bridges, Graham and Monk.. hmmmmmm

Now the question is - (Edwards is going #1 no matter what) - Would you part with either of those guys to move up a spot to #2.......? I think I would move on from Bridges, PJ or Monk to make it happen - but not 2 of them.

Also - If we cannot get him and he is gone by #3 - What if we trade down, pick up a solid vet player and get Okongwu? At the end of the day - In Mitch I trust..

It will be exciting!!
