A few people have come forward with this view. I still see RJ as having the higher upside and our front office appears to feel the same way. I was more open to trading down for Culver before KD got injured. Now I think we just have to swing for the fences |

What if a post AD deal w/ the Lakers and Suns nets the Pelicans 4&6 (Lakers and Suns's pick for Lonzo) and then the Pelicans offer us 4&6 to move up to 3? Would you pass on Barrett to add Culver+1? I would love to add Bol or Brandon Clarke... I wonder who the Knicks would take? "winning is more fun... then fun is fun" -Thibs

I’d definitely take 4th and 6th for the 3rd, but I think it makes more sense for the Pels to keep the 4th and 6th. Think they’ll be nicely set up from a lakers deal, but I suspect they’re trying to flip some of it for Beal. |

For sure you trade down from 3 for the 4 & 6.... I believe that's above historical premiums for trading down. I think it becomes more interesting the more picks you accumulate. It's too bad that our player development is unproven, but let's assume we solve that part (big IF). If we could turn a 3rd pick into 4 picks ranging from 10-25, I would love that. Here's a sampling of what's been available further down the draft
Kevin Huerter (pick 19, 2018) There's tons of value in later picks in the draft and that's where we're at right now. We need to fill out our roster to setup our next move or continue to develop. We're basically a few years behind where the Nets are, and that's if things go well Rose is not the answer.

We're meeting with Ja Morant tomorrow- I would feel so much better going into our full rebuild via the young guys with him at the PG spot, but I just don't see the Griz passing on him, unless Glen Grunwald does us a solid and hypes RJ due to his canadian bball connections (he's a Griz advisor resident and CEO of Canada Basketball)
However, this news did make me realise, we haven't really worked out/met with many players this year (outside of those projected to be second rounders)- from what I can remember we've only met: RJ Am I missing anyone? Leads me to believe we won't be trading down or adding any other first round picks |

I think we also worked the scrub brother of Tobias Harris. I think he might be worse than Chris Smith judging by his college stats. 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.

He’s been invisible the entire draft process- no interviews or anything. same with Garland, must have promises |
