Let's say Minnesota goes in another direction and Draft Ball. You guys okay with Edwards at 3, if Weisman is gone?

I would be perfectly fine taking him. Boom or Bust guy at a position of need. You scoop him up with a quickness and hope for the best. Shrugs.

I think so.. I'd take a second and listen to teams that loves Edwards and want to trade up while we grab Okongwu.. but in the end - you take Edwards..

if you look at the consistent playoff teams the past few years (GSW, HOU, BOS) - they have an abundance of wing shooters/defenders.. adding Edwards to Rozier, Bridges, Monk and Cody Martin is solid.. we'd look a lot like the Celtics loading up with Smart, Brown, Tatum and Rozier a few years ago..

We may have our choice of Wiseman or Edwards.  Edwards for me.  He could be really special.  Wiseman has question marks IMO and has a significant bust factor.

Still have a sense that Toppin is gonna be a serious player for someone.  

[SOJA]

100% Edwards is the dream imo, wiseman is number two. Really big fall off after them two imo

[saX man]

Edwards would be a huge win.  He's instantly our 2 and his athleticism/quickness would work really well with Graham, Bridges, & PJ.

Still need better shooting but he'd be great for what we need as we continue to figure this basketball thing out in CLT.

[OldNorthPowell]

Yes, yes, and yes.

Edwards comp is D.Wade..    
I loved Kemba - but it would be nice to have a Go-To finisher in the 4th quarter who isn't under 6ft

The knock on Edwards was that his shot selection was horrible at Georgia but he had to chuck them up because he was on such a bad team. Check this video out:

I'm really starting to like Edwards and prefer him, even though guard isn't our biggest need right now. We obviously just have to take best player available and if Edwards is there it would almost certainly be him. Not sure he'll be there, hoping Ball goes before us so we can have Edwards or Wiseman. I don't want to trade up, but if we did I think I'd rather do it for Edwards than Wiseman. I think Edwards will be better.

[ncfan]

Heck yeah

My favorite prospect in this draft.

A slightly bigger Donavan Mitchell

If someone told me before the lottery we would end up with Anthony Edwards I would have laughed.  Hell yes would be happy with him.

It's looking more and more probable.

Yea...Kemba size caught up to him in conference finals

can Edwards shoot?

thats the main reason I don’t want ball....if we can’t get wiseman, who I really want, then we need wings that are big and can shoot and score

Edwards can score and that is our biggest need IMO.  Now...gotta find a big somewhere if we take him.

[Shocker]

If the Knicks lose out on a PG and take a big I think it would be more than worth it to look into Mitchell Robinson.  He is good so it would take some assets (maybe Rozier and Monk, maybe more) but that would be awesome IMO.
