    Pop and RC don't get draft and stash euros anymore. They're obsessed with the light skin 6'3 small guard who can't shoot but has long arms...

    in a perimeter oriented league, which is exactly the most serious fault of the roster, let's draft a bigmen, that's exactly what PATFO would do

    It's not like they couldn't use a legit big prospect (someone with at least 3rd big potential) in the pipeline. Aldridge and Gasol will turn 33 and 38, respectively, during the summer. They at least have Murray and White at guard.

    Really, the greatest need isn't positional though; it's high end you talent in general. If the pick is retained, they should be aiming as close as possible to that, no matter the position.

    Did White just not impress enough to get some more courtesy minutes this year on the big club? I thought he played pretty decent in the one playoff game he got in, even if it was garbage time.

    Honestly, I'll admit that I didn't watch the whole 5 mins. But what I did see just shows me he's taller than the compe ion and tall....Lobs, dunks and blocks on people half his size.

    I think most will be back. The point about Gay is that you don't draft some guy and hope to replace Gay's role. You'd have to attack it in free agency with a vet. I actually do see Gay opting out, though, and signing like a two-year deal at a slight raise and without an option. He seems to live SA, and he fits well there. He could age gracefully as a designated bench scorer. Only way he leaves is if he's THAT desperate to ring-chase of is taking Kawhi's side in all this.
    Lol he cant score for . Do you watch games?

    Bates-Diop keeps getting better, plays both defense and shoots the three. Buys into the team concept but also carried Ohio St. into the NCAA tourney when many projected them last in the Big 10.
    Has the wheels to become a SG, and size to play SF or small ball PF at 6-7 235 pounds and be replacement for Danny Green.

    I actually like him to man. Don't know why he isn't rated higher in most mocks. The dude a solid all round player

    Name a player other than Aldridge/Leonard who can create points out of nothing more than Gay. The rest of the roster struggled mightily and it’ll only get worse once Manu retires.

    Bates diop looks solid, he could be a steal if he goes early in the second round.

    imo he’s ranking a little bit low because he’s 22 yr old and has less upside than some younger players.

    This. The longer you stay in college, and DONT DOMINATE, the lower your ceiling is perceived to be.

    That’s true, younger and talented players didn’t stay a lot in NCAA in general, so players who stay four years in university are undervaluated sometimes.

    Right. You get hyped for dunking, not skill. Then you turn into players like murray, who are pgs but cant shoot pass or dibble. Dumb fans fault. Stop buying espn fake news

    Bates-Diop did not dominate until his senior year because he finally had a coach who would give him the ball. He handles the ball well, shoots the three, plays physical defense, and can post up lighter weight defenders. He has the work ethic and will have a solid NBA career.

    Unfortunately, most GMs aren’t looking for solid, they’re looking for unicorns.

    Bummer. He was one of my favorite prospects who might’ve been available. He’ll prob be a lottery pick next year though.

    If Kawhi takes another year off, we might get him then.

    Or when players have big production jumps in year 3 or year 4, its often viewed as a more experienced, physically mature player bullying less experienced and rawer talent. Buddy Heild comes to mind, he had a 7.5 ppg jump between year 3 and year 4 (17.4 to 25 ppg)

    GSW will buy a high second round pick and draft him.
