No draft picks for us this year.


Captain Morgan

Recommended Posts

Our pick this year is top 12 protected....Chicago gets it unless we draft in the top 12,

and right now, we're projected to pick higher than that.

And we don't have a second round pick.

There is a very good chance we don't even get a draft pick this year.

The good news is, right now, it looks like a very, very weak draft.

and we have 2 additional picks in the following 3 years to add to ours.

And we have free agent cash to spend.

gonna be fun watching Cho handle this.

Why in gods name would you want that. Sounds like a recipe for NBA purgatory- good enough to compete for the playoffs, not good enough to do anything in them, unable to improve with mid round draft picks and an inability to attract top free agents. Don't let the nice start fool you. While this team is drastically improved, there is still a long way to go, and we need to build through high draft picks.

I wish we could get Noel to be our C. Idk..I guess I just like his eraser top hair do..lol

Really though..imagine Biz developing the rest of this season and off season..and becoming a force at PF..then having a force at C..

l get picked too early for us to grab him though. I imagine top 3 or so...

wouldn't bother me. honestly this draft class blows, better off giving up that pick now so we don't have to in the stacked 2014 draft. we have cap space to significantly improve with if thats the direction they wanna go as well. and wouldnt be surprised to see Henderson or Sessions on the move for a pick or two at the deadline

You guys do know we are developing Biyombo to be a Center right? Think of him as hopefully becoming something like Ben Wallace, An absolute beast on defense. He played very well last year against Dwight and a few others. Also, I don't think I have ever seen him in a game some far play the 4.

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
