I'm not onboard with going all out to sign FVV, but at least I have a degree of confidence that he'll last through his next deal at a consistent level of performance. Even Westbrook, whose contract is horrendous, should still be a top 10 PG in two years. Haywood and Oladipo are major gambles due to their injury histories. Sometimes the gamble pays off. Most times you're the Lakers scrambling to find a body because DeMarcus Cousins had his 30th major leg injury in an 8 month span. Do you think Haywood and Dipo are worth that gamble? Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

Not a fan of lateral moves I do have reservations with Oladipo, i wont mind passing up on him but i think Hayward wont be much of a gamble. Based on last year's performance he was able to average 17.5pts, 6.7rebs and 4.1 assists on a loaded Celtics team. 3-4 years of that production is a potential good signing for me. |

That has nothing to do with it. The top picks in this draft are simply higher risk than in preceding drafts (as if that's possible) and so moving up from 8 to 1-5 is worth what? The teams holding those picks *want you to believe* they are worth a haul. But they aren't. Everybody knows that. But for entertainment's sake its being played up like Knicks [for clicks] are so desperate that they'll sell their souls for the limelight on ESPN's draft night special. Don't go down that rabbit hole. |

Either way, they can either just build via the draft or outbid us if any good player becomes available for a trade, plus they have a nice player in SGA to build with and a first rate developmental programme |
