If we draft him maybe you don't trade for Lin. When our point guards are getting worked every night I guarantee we will be looking for a defensive compliment to Trae when John Wall is eating him alive. Definitely need a defensive big, but I question does Schlenk want a big that can't shoot. Early results say no with Dedmon and Spellman. I think Melton has more upside too, and we are in talent acquisition mode. There was a lot of talent in this second round. I think there will some ballers.

I hear you with Melton and would have been fine with the pick but man if we get into foul trouble up front, we are in deep doo doo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is Kyle Korver but able to put the ball on the floor and go to the basket. Korver + handles + at least an average defender at 19. Excuse me while I take a second to pat myself of the back. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Peoriabird Posted June 10, 2019 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 10, 2019 I was kinda right about Robinson...Do I get points for that at least? I'm desperate for a win with these old threads resurfacing! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
