    Totally expect them to dump the 35th pick. Both picks.

    That said... I expected them to take two rookies this year.

    Furphy and Filipowski really should have been 1st round picks in this draft. Tyler Smith, too. I expect them to get snapped up very quickly, and before us.

    AJ Mitc
    Tyler Kolek
    Nikola Djurisic
    Pelle Larson
    Would be very happy with Furby, Flip, or TySmith. If any are on the board at 35 and we punt again... this site will be fun.

    My guess:

    Toronto fanbase wants to move back or get Filipowski or Tyler Smith, some talk of Kolek. They have and Walter and Furphy is extraneous.
    Utah fanbase is calling out Furphy
    Milwaukee fanbase isn't unified, more Smith or Filipowski but mostly arguing about their first round pick
    Portland fanbase mostly wants Furphy but scattered

    So for a Furphy sweepstakes, the Spurs would need to entice Toronto, I'd say. No way Ainge lets a white boy shooter pass him in the Mormon desert.

    Doubt the Spurs want him, anyway. No idea what they want.

    I'd say Portland and Utah both have decent odds of trading out. Utah already added 3 rookies, and Portland doesn't have roster space.

    SRPs have no impact on roster space. You can literally just bring them into camp and tell them to off if they don't beat out the 17th best player.

    Unless you sign them to guaranteed deals (which high SRPs typically get - and the new CBA favors). The new SRP exception will probably lead to some interest from teams with expensive rosters to move up.

    yeah so? there's no literal commitment you have to make. they don't take up a roster spot. they don't automatically eat your cap. you can just have an extended evaluation period and tell them to off to Xinjiang with no cost

    You realize you have to sign these guys before they come to camp, right? Drafting a guy isn't an extended tryout period where they show up and hope you give them money later.

    Last year's top 10 SRPs all got guaranteed money, except for James Nnaji (Hornets) who stayed overseas. That guaranteed money counts against the cap.

    Draft Djurisic and if we squint our eyes hard he might pass for Topić.

    Draft Ajinca and if we squint our eyes really hard he might pass for Tidjane. Actually, I’ve heard some scouts say they think he’s better than Salaun so maybe we should just draft this guy as Wemby’s French little buddy Gilligian.

    I didn't want either of those guys, what kind of squinting do I have to do to see someone else?

    You can’t tell me there isn’t at least a somewhat decent chance that someone available at 35 can be of more use to this team than guys like Branham/Wesley/etc. If we trade out of 35 for more future SRPs then this FO regime is a joke.

    there are several players in this draft that could be better on our current roster.Bigs like smith,flipowski,bona could be better then barlow and bassey.
    Guys at wings like furphy and djurisc who can take champs spot.Guards like kolek,aj mitc ,christie,nunez.There is some decent options for us at 35.

    I wanted them to trade 35, 48 and a future second or two for PHX’s 28 and draft T. Smith, who’s probably a better player than Salaun right now, but they likely don’t want another rookie contract on the books so I’d expect them to trade 35.

    At 48 someone who agrees to do a 2-way and play in Austin.

    For pennies on the dollar to compete for a roster spot. And you can tell them to off if you don't guarantee them.
