So who is our big man of future

[Silky]

Our big man of the future could be the one we pick using the Memphis pick.

likely this

next years draft is SG heavy, and I thin we need to have the pick convey next season as there is a very good chance that Memphis is not trash in 2 years and instead looks more like Kings of this season.

Wiseman is probably top 6 for sure, meaning we couldnt get him.

Carney and Bassey might be available in the 20s though.

in 2021 when the pick in unprotected, there are a number of good looking prospects so far.
Mobley, Maker, Jones, Diop and I am sure many others.

I am really big on Makur Maker. Got some KG Like skills on him, great ball handler, can pass very well, a true 7 footer already, solid shooting form, excellent athletecism. He has the skills of a guard in a 7 foot body

I agree with Memphis not beings trash in 2 years. I wouldn’t hold my breath for that pick, Danny doesn’t have a great history of drafting bigs.

I think it probably conveys this uocoming season at about 8-11 where a bunch of wings are slated.

Of course it is very early yet.

Man people are really scarred by last season, Memphis is not likely to be competitive in the west the next two years.

I find it hard to speak in such absolutes.

And I am certain a number of people claimed there was no way that sacramento would be competetive in the west last season.

Its very reasonable to see Morant have a r.o.y. impact, jjj to continue to improve, jonas to keep doing his double double stuff and then in offseason they have alot of capspace and a potential top pick again.

IMO the most likely outcome is still mid-lottery (7-9) and pick to C's next year barring lottery magic again. Bottom 3 or borderline playoff would be extremely surprising.

Think the real mistake of the offseason was not trying to sign looney to a cap space deal. It would have probably cost them a protected pick in order to be able to trade enough salary (Mook, Yabu and Semi or Al or Kyrie) in order not to utilise cap space in the Kemba deal. I estimate by doing so they could have offered looney a deal starting at around 9-10 million dollars.

Looney has impressive stats the problem is determining how much of it was due to him being on a very talented team.

The price for Jaren Jackson Jr. or KAT would be too high b/c I think Mem or Min does not want to trade them, but I can't stop to wonder would the Bulls be willing to trade WCJ? Would Jaylen and Memphis pick be enough? I would be estatic if somehow we could get him. Imagine Kemba, Smart, Tatum, Hayward and Wendell Carter Jr. Wow.....

[Tr1boy]

I think Grant Williams will be a key member

if not flash stats,  that "glue guy" every team could use

Robert Williams is ways away still. Especially needing to add 15-20 pounds of mass.

Lets see if we found a golden nugget in Poirier

All this worrying about the MEM pick is a little silly right now. Teams dont typically trade their best player and immediately get better. Rookie PGs dont usually nake a huge impact. I would guess the puck rolls over. But if it doesnt it's too earlier to worry about whether there are bugs in the 7-11 range of the draft. Rankings change alot in a year. Zion was mocked at 5 this time last year.

MEM will tank this year to try to keep the pick in top 6, next year their J&J will be more experienced, they are following the king's footstep

It should be clear to you by now that Ainge and CBS do not prioritize Bigs.  This was readily apparent to me following the draft.
