sure, but we don't need 6 picks.

Take the trades out and post some concrete rumors here man. It's hard to justify some of those picks. Why is Deandre Jordan still going so high?

Not sure who we are targeting, but it'd also help when we have to resign LA, Roy and then soon Greg. Not to mention players are already wanting to come play with Oden and the Blazers so we'll see.

I wouldn't mind RJ don't get me wrong, but idk what KP is thinking right now. He's kind of everywhere.

That Raef expiring contract is nice, but I have to think they do at least a little better than that package.


I like the Rockets deal. Im glad you gave us Head. Give me Head any day of the week and Im happy.


However I dont see Zach Randolph fitting in with the Suns. That ball whips around with that team, he rarely passes, and is out of shape. I think you need to rethink that deal.

I like your thinking in the other trades though.

Why dont you come up with a Detoit/PHX deal?

I don't think 13 is high for him, someone will take a chance I'm pretty sure of that. This is not my personal opinion though, I would rather have a safer pick than a project like Jordan in the lottery. I think you know my opinion about most players by now and there isn't really much reason for it to change when they don't play any games. It's all about predicting the actual order now.

What kind of deal do you envision ?

As for Zach Randolph, you could say that about any team. He will always be a black hole, but if you put him in a minor role - which he will either have to accept at one point in his career or noone is going to want him on his team anymore - he might have some value.

i guarantee Alexis Ajinca will go before atleast 2 of Jordan, McGee & Hibbert, aswell has Hardin. maybe all 4. is there a reason you don't have him in the top 30?

he's been outstanding in workouts, especially against these other centers. very physical, he's bigger then McGee, he's just as young @ 19. has advantage used to playing against men international, not college kids.

and he comes with a far better shooting touch then any of them, @ a far greater wingspan.

this guy will be one of the best centers to come out of the draft.

I had him going to Seattle originally. I have also heard that he has had good workouts, I'm just not sure if any team did like that much to actually take him. Sometimes it's better to have one team that loves you rather than five or six who like you.

Does Seattle REALLY need another project center? A part of me wishes theyd just take Brook Lopez and forget about it.

I think they should take a look at someone like Richard Hendrix, he is not a center and doesn't have much upside, but he should be able to give them 20 good minutes as a workhorse. He could become a reliable piece in the rebuilding process and add some toughness to the frontcourt.
