I would love to get a shooting wing (a 3 and D guy). Wish Rodney Hood would slip, and that we could play him as a big 2.

Just let's talk about 17 ITT. No trades, assuming we keep the pick.

I think that should be our main target at 17...a 3 point shooter.

I really want TJ Warren here.  I believe he is going to be a legit scorer in the NBA that will be able to score from midrange to the basket.  He boards.  He moves very well off ball.  With size AND a floater (which is an awesome combo, his floater is Wade like).  His shot looks a bit weird but it just goes in.  He could very possibly have NBA range already.

I would love to see him in transition with Rondo and we could really use scoring.  He has natural scoring instincts and gets off shots that are more like something you'd see from an NBA vet.  I don't remember seeing a college player his size use floaters like he does.  It's impressive and should translate well.

James Young or Shabazz Napier

idk, for some reason, I think Napier being a hometown hero is a good story

I want one of the shooters!  Hood, Warren, Hairston, etc. 

Preferably a bigger one, so if it's a SG, then 6'6" if its a SF, then 6'8".

If Saric slips to 17 do we HAVE to take him?

My preference is to roll on the dice on one of the swingmen projected in this part of the draft.  Try and shore up the wing on this team or, at least, try to get some scoring prowess off the bench.

Yes.  It would be a mistake to pass on him at #17.  Let him develop 2-3 more years in Europe, and then when he comes over, he's a lot more ready to contribute, while still on an affordable deal. 

I don't think he'll fall to #17.  I'd expect Phoenix or Chicago, who have picks at 14 and 18, and 16 and 19, to pick him before 17, since they also have the extra picks to afford stashing a player like Saric.  But if he somehow makes it to #17, I think it's virtually a no-brainer.

Which is why he would be there at 17.  He can still be drafted.

Instead of starting a separate thread, I hope the OP won't mind if I mention some trade down possibilities from #17.

Somebody might fall in love with Zach Lavine or Gary Harris or James Young or Rodney Hood or something, somebody still available at 17.

OKC has picks 21 and 29, and there will still be plenty of talent there at those spots.

CHA has picks 23 and 35.

Phoenix has 18 and 27.

Chicago has 19 and 49.

Toronto has 20 and 37, that's not bad.

Milwaukee has 31, 36, and 48

PHI has 32, 39, 47, and 52.

There's a lot of trade down options.
