They were both out of the game at the same time...

Wemby is their whole defense. Kinda looks like Gobert trying to guard 5 players at the same time.

JHS is a very good basketball player. The question for me is - can he be an efficient scorer?

Honestly the more film I watch of him the more I see Deron Williams. He didn't put big assist numbers but that has more to do with the teammates he had. Put him on a team with solid spot up shooters and I think his playmaking would really shine.

Wemby is insane. LOL! This is ridiculous. We should have lost about 15 more games :|

Locke did 9 for 12+our own pick next year back(from OKC) in his the Locked on network mock draft.

I'm actually good with that because I really don't see a drop off from a talent level between 9 and 12.

I’m of the notion that if we don’t love anyone, we should try to trade down from 9 to 13. I think we can get Cason or Kobe or someone of that ilk there.

I’d consider trading 9 and 28 to Toronto for 13 and their 2025 1st. I don’t think Toronto would do it but you never know. Maybe we’d have to throw something else in with protections. Toronto might want to move up to get someone (along with Barnes) to entice VanVleet to stay while also preventing a future Siakam mutiny like every other stud player seems to enact.

In this scenario, we can still get a player of need and want at 13, would avoid having three 1st round guaranteed contracts on our roster this coming season, and add a potentially big future asset with that 2025 1st. Siakam’s contract ends in 2024. VanVleet is a FA this off-season. That 2025 1st from them could be huge. I know the 2024 draft is a subpar one but that 2025 one has the potential to be very strong.

Toronto can’t trade their 2025 1st but I don’t dislike the sentiment.

Wait… I thought Bilal was a defensive beast?
