After binging film during work. Tre Johnson is the best case scenario imo. That dude is so damn good and if he learns how to foul bait, he will be unstoppable. He’s got Shai and even KD elements to his game. Just needs to learn how to draw some fouls, on top of his bag.

Tre, Poole and Z are 3 guys that can create their own shots. Herb can stand in the corner and occasionally cut. Trey can camp out on the wing, run the break and attack closeouts. Let the other 3 cook and get him wide open shots.

Do we need more size? Yes. But not at the expense of passing over Tre Johnson to pick Khaman. Find a big another way. Tre is that good to completely disregard need at 7.

The only pick that will really piss me off at 7 is Khaman. He is such a project and won't start over Missi, so i dont see the point in drafting him at 7.

I'd take Kon, Fears, Tre, Queen and Bailey, all over Khaman. Khaman at 7 would be a nightmare scenario, which means he'll probably be the pick.

trade talks have been awfully quiet the last few hours.

Yea, teams are all going to wait to see who's available at the positions they target and probably won't pull the trigger unless their guy is there.

Jonathon Givony said Pels have had talks with Charlotte to move up to 4.

He also said there are things he’s hearing about Queen going 7

I think we will be in the middle of a lot of action because that tier of players we’re picking from will be very volatile.

There’s about 6 players we could realistically end up with because we aren’t sure who will fall.

Bailey? Because I’m not sure I know who else we move up for unless Charlotte is a cheap date.

Yup, apparently us and Washington have been talking to them about moving to 4 for Bailey.

Shamit said Bailey never worked out for the Pelicans.

Makes me wonder if they would have rather keep their pick if we didn't make a trade for it earlier.

Certain teams are probably going to make sure their guy is available. Would expect more live trades than trades before the draft.

If it’s Queen, I think I might be more pissed that our organization still leaks their draft plans every year. But so far things like the CJ trade have been kept quiet, so here’s to hoping for the best.

Evan Sidery said we are willing to give up 7 and 23 for 4.

Most teams like draft intel. The info about Spurs going with Dylan, VJ to Philly, and Kon to Charlotte, and Wiz wants Ace are all based on leaks.
