Draft the best player available, regardless of position.
and what happens in our position if two PFs are the BPA on the board? Have 9 PFs?
What I think will happen is they will make a list of the top 3 players on the board of we are lottery winners, which is where you take the BPA.
If we are down at 9-10-11-12 they are probably going to target 3-4 players that make sense for the club then fill their board down the list to 29-30. If we get who we want at the first pick and then a player ranked 14th falls to 29, for instance, lets say wayne simien fell to 29, then i would agree to take the player and ask questions later. then of course the pick at 29 could be used as a guarantee and lastly if the board stays on course, they would probably take a player of need over a player of duplication if one is ranked 26 and the other is ranked 30
there coule be a number of players taken at 29, for instance robinson, salim stoudemire, louis williams and then of course you could have a player who is ranked high who falls into your lap. we just say names here. we cant guarantee any player we mention here will even be available. You'd hope to walk out with an athletic 7 footer and atleast a back up PG/combo G that made sense
