We're two days from the lottery, so I figure we can do with more lottery talk around here. This lottery feels bigger and more important than previous lotteries. I'm hoping Griff brings us some more lottery luck. Could take us from a fringe playoff team to western conference powerhouse.

Now if we landed the number two overall pick, which prospect are you taking with it?

Mobley is universally considered the second best prospect, some think in a tier slightly above Green and Suggs. But would you take him with Jaxson already on the team? Or would you draft for need and take the guard/wing? If so, which one (Suggs or Green)?

I personally think Zion and Mobley fit perfectly on the defensive side, the offensive fit would depend on how Mobley's shot develops. He shot 30% from 3 but 70% from the FT line.

I keep going back and forth on this, so I'd rather hear yall's thoughts on this hypothetical.

Not Mobley. I know he’s good, but that’s too much investment in big men in a perimeter oriented league. I also think Kuminga is very intriguing. From a body standpoint, he’s a lot of what we need and though his offense is raw, if it develops he will be scary.

BPA and you take Mobley. Green is a edwards type guy that is going to be a street ball player, Suggs is probably a better fit but doesn’t have near the upside that Mobley has. If you are worried about them being redundant, then Hayes goes on the block with some picks to get another guard.

Green without a doubt and with no hesitation.
The pick would be in the second the Pels went on the clock.

Id lean Suggs over te two G league guys, but wouldnt hate any of the,

Suggs would likely quickly emerge as the vocal leader of this team, and doesn't need the volume of shots that a Green or Kumninga would demand but can still get off when called upon to do so. I think he's also a better shooter and can get to the line more, with better efficiency


Drafting Mobley would be a Pels move though
