re: Fact: We will be picking one of 7 players:

We "worked out" 3 people and 1 was an injured Len. Are we for sure taking 1 of the 3? Why does that even matter? You didn't even list MCW

This top 6 player shite is stupid. If we were picking 2 or 3, ok then I could see I saying we are taking one of those 6. But considering we are picking 6, a lot of different scenarios can play out. You have NBA Mock Draft top 6 and then you have guys Monty likes top 6.

I don't think it has to be one of the 3. But: we brought in 3 guys that WOULD work out for us and that we thought would be available at 6. The other guys he either wouldn't work out for us or we didn't need to see them workout.

Obviously McCollum will be available at 6 and he would have worked out for us if we wanted him to. And we didn't. To me, I think that says something.

As for MCW, I just don't think he's even close to a top 10 talent in the draft, let alone the pick at 6. I don't see it. Maybe the Pelicans feel differently, but my personal belief based on absolutely nothing whatsoever is that they were just doing due diligence.
