Agreed. 8 & 10 makes sense for R.J. Trading up makes no sense for anyone 4-8 with our 8 pick. Teams want to kill Atlanta on a trade. No sir

They see we have assets and expect us to overpay, they can kick rocks.

Oh wow! Sekou workout with the Spurs and they loved him. We might have a partner to dance with at 10. 

10 for 19/29. 

This also gives us the legit package of

29/35/41 to possibly move back into the teens.

 

Could 17/18/19 be a reality. I hope so. So many players in that range I really like.

WAT?  hellz naw.

That'll be horrible.

Take Sekou and be happy.

And that's BEYOND HORRIBLE for the #10 pick.

Just last year Schlenk wss willing to use #19 and #30 to move to #27 (before the leak).

How the heck does SAS move to #10 with #19 and #29.

C'mon Supes, you dissapoint me

Why your mad at me? I didn't say this was going to happen, just putting it out there that Sekou worked out with the Spurs and I know the Spurs mentioned they could move up to 10 as the reason to the agent. Just saying, don't be shocked.

Schlenk has earned my trust but I won't react well if we pass on Sekou for 19/29.  

This one isn't the best in the world but there is a lot of pick value data and it lines up to the same conclusion:  your odds of getting an impact player diminish pretty rapidly as you progress through the first round in the draft.

Don't pass on a high upside guy like Sekou.

What if the Hawks don't like Sekou for what they do? 

[Wretch]

If Sekou is there at 10 and we don't take him, I'd be hella disappointed... especially if the Spurs want him.

Well for what he does, he fits. He will hit the 3 from Trae and D the heck up. I understand the Cam glove fit but Sekou doesn’t not fit imo.

I guess if everything stays put, no Reddish to the Hawks at 8?

[bleachkit]

This notion that this is a three player draft is false. Every year a pre-draft consensus emerges that ends up being totally wrong, and is forgotten years later. When the Raptors drafted Pascal Siakam, it was widely considered a mild reach, but most of the focus was on their top ten pick, pick no.9, Jacob Poltl. Who? It just goes to show the thing is a crap shoot, and all about getting more bites of the apple.

That's fine if they don't, but #10 for #19 and #29 is a bad deal.

[Spud2nique]

RJ has a thick ☝ 

Neck. Him and Grant Will should neck wrestle  

[Spud2nique]

Ok so RJ is a Knick. 1-3 set.

You seemed thrilled to get picks #17, #18, #19

 Not good value for #10

Technically it would be 17, 19, 29, 35 and 41 if that was the terms but yes, 17, 18, 19 could be 

Hayes/Goga

Herro/NAW

Clarke/Washington

 

That is very appealing to me

[Spud2nique]

Jay Bilas got Culver and Cam 7 & 8 respectively. Yes sir!

On his top 10

Nas at 9

Hayes the last one.

I honestly think Culver is going 5th or 7th. Cam seems to be a lock at 8th unless you got him going 9th or later

Ya that seems right. Somebody is falling. The worst thing for us is ignoring Coby White doesn’t get picked by our pick. Then that means Cam and Culver are gone in the top 7, then I guess it’s Sekou.
