If there ever was a year to take a guy with potential that isn't immediately ready to contribute day 1 it would be this year. Lets just say we get to pick anyone in the draft. Burke, Porter, Mcelmore, etc. how much better of a team would we actually be? How many more wins would we get? I don't think we would be that much better. I'd be down to take a euro guy who is tall and has 1 of the sweetest touches in the game this year and stash him. Especially considering the talent that is coming in the NBA in next years draft.



This ownership and management is determined to put a competitive team on the floor this coming season. Not a contender, realistically, but competitive. So, you have to take that into consideration.

I get that, but who in this draft would make us a competitive team for next year?? I don't see any of these players changing a franchise that much. But next years draft, there are a couple of franchise changing players in Wiggins, Parker, and Randle. Hell, Smart could have a big time season next year at Okie St and improve and be a good player.

If we want to be competitive next year, we have to sign a big time FA and then draft a solid guy. And I would be down with that. I'm just saying if we don't sign a good FA, one of the guys in this draft won't be a franchise changer.
