Brown or Chriss if we keep the pick

Dunn if we end up trading it somewhere afterwards

By the way, has there been any update on Brown's second workout today?

There is zero chance I'd pick Bender.

I'd say it's Dunn, and then Smart gets traded to Philly for Okafor.

Best case scenario, especially the latter, so I doubt it happens

Buddy.

I like Buddy.  But the question is, can he make it all the way to the basket at the NBA level?

Or will he be dancing around the perimeter mainly

It doesn't matter how good of a shooter you are, if you can't put your defender(s) off balance here and there, you can't be great in this league

Kyle Korver and JJ Reddick beg to differ
I'm bitter.

Buddy doesn't run off screens as well as Korver or Reddick do to get themselves free. That is not to say he won't improve on getting himself free off the ball, but he doesn't have it like that right now.

I'm going with Dunn. 

Likely to be traded after that..but if not, then look for another deal to try to get us a second lottery pick.

1) trade 2)Bender 3) Brown

He won't have a trade in hand until the first two picks are in. 50/50 chance.
If not, a tossup between those two. Dunn only if a guard is traded for help up front.

Trade #3 for Butler chance at 40% in my mind

If not, then Bender at 30%

If not Bender 20% Murray

Then slight chance of Ingram slipping at 10%

If we keep the pick I think they'll choose jaylen brown but I would like buddy hield.  They will pick Dunn if they are trading

I hope it's Bender because if DA picks Bender it's because he believes in him over some seemingly less risky picks (Brown, Dunn, Hield).   If Bender is a 'hit', I think he'll have the biggest impact.

Just want to add this as I don't know where else to say it and I don't want to start a new thread:   

I am so dang psyched for Thursday night, I can't stand it.  I was hoping that this week would kick-off with some tantalizing, reality-based rumors, but since none have emerged I am thinking endlessly about Thursday night.  So many possibilities.    Could be a huge night for the future of this organization.  5 picks in the top 35 in what some people are now considering a deep draft.   I can't wait.
