Draft Picks Watch: Jan 28

Anderson would be a solid pick.

He creates matchup problems with his height, can play multiple positions, facilitates well, and can get you some points.

fug Jabari Parker

Detroit tanking, they will definitely keep their pick, might even be 7th.

 

They will probably be 10 games over 500 next season

 

How do you figure?  Detroit might be the worst put together team in the NBA, their roster just doesnt make sense.  They have some talent but clearly have no direction and no flexibility thanks to their big contracts

After watching Stauskas light up Texas, I would be very happy with that pick. At 6'6 you can play him at the 2 and 3 and he rebounds really well for his size.

He's also not your prototypical white shooter. He can create his own shot and take opposing players off the dribble. He reminds me a lot of Chandler Parson's.

I'd also love to have Adrian Payne. A PF combo of Zeller and Payne would be filthy.

Tongue in cheek, just a "this would be our luck" statement

Portland has fallen quit a bit lately and is only 2.5 games from being out of the playoffs.

 

 

Would not mind rooting for them to lose and drop out of the playoffs and pick up a few spots in the draft. 

 

Aldridge is expected back Thursday however so hopefully he struggles and they continue to fall.

Is the pick from Portland protected?

Thanks. I was wondering since if they missed the playoffs it would be possible (hugely unlikely) for them to get the #1, #2, or #3 pick.

Staus would be nice. His defense is a concern though but with MKG I could live with it.

Detroit is all out tanking, hopefully the pick improves next season as Smith continues to brick jumpers.

If we dont end up getting the Detroit pick this year I have a feeling we will flip it for an asset next season.

Watch Smith come out and start taking smart shots. Lol
