No we are fine at 3 positions PG,SG, and PF other than that we are awful. I want to draft a guy who defensive minded and plays hard if Brown falls I want him if we pick around 6. If we keep winning I like Luwawu he's a versatile defending wing and get a compared to Batum. He falls into that Kawhi/Butler type if he gets under the right development he will be the wing that we need.

I beg to differ that we are fine at SG. IMO, there are only two positions that are solidified, PG and PF. Every other position needs to be addressed either through the draft are free agency. If we don't fall in the top 6, I'm all for them taking the best player available that will fill one of the positions of need and that player is Buddy Hield for me. IMO, Hield is the only player in the entire draft that can make an immediate impact on a roster the day he is drafted. I'm not saying he's the best player or the one with the most potential, but he's ready to contribute significantly right now. That's something the Pels desperately needs.

Jrue has the position held down, but his ability to play on and off the ball give you flexibility to bring in another PG to play alongside of him. Someone like Murray who can also play on and off the ball may be a really good fit with Jrue.

SG

EG is a FA this year. I don't think we can rely on him to solidify the SG position whether he comes back or not. That leaves us with Tyreke. IMO, it should be a top priority to find a trade partner for Tyreke this offseason. Even if he stays, adding a backcourt partner for Jrue, who can shoot and spread the floor is a need.

PF

Agreed.

We'll have to agree to disagree on Brown. I just do not like him at all. Reminds me of another AFA or Julian Wright coming out of college.

Luwawu

I honestly have never seen him play, nor know much about him. Maybe he comes into play with our pick. The scouting report on him seems pretty good, but I can't really form an opinion just off of that.
