Following potential 2014 draftees

[Deleted member 365]

I agree, the thought is Kanter (at PF) can extend his range to the three point line. He probably has a better chance of hitting threes than any big not named Parker in this draft.
So you would have:

Favors
Kanter
A. Gordon
Hayward
Burke

6th: Burks

Bench: Evans, Gobert, Clark, Neto?, FA, GS pick

I am not super high on Gordon, but we need a big athletic player that can some day slow down guys like Durant and Lebron. It all comes back to them, they are the gatekeepers. If we don't draft one will have to overpay on the free agent market.

If we want Gordon then we need to trade our other 1st rounder and package it up with a player from our roster to draft him.

Using our top pick on him would be a tremendous waste.

It's pretty simple, our pick needs to be our franchise go to player. Wiggins, Parker, Embiid, Exum. Those will be the most likely options.

Drafting Gordon is fine. Just not in the top 5.

Make no mistake, our franchise it at a crossroads here. We screw up here we are screwed for the next 3+ years.

I dont know why people talkin about Gordon and Vonleh. We are getting a top 2 pick this year. We are not picking one of them.

Am I wrong here when I say we need a scorer?

DL, during his combine interview, brought up shooting as a need.

I'm really hoping we find a way to snag Stauskas.

Agree with you. Wiggins, Exum and Parker ar my top 3. And I have Vonleh ranked higher than Randle or Gordon because I think he's going to be a more complete player.

I agree with your list. My list goes as follows:

Elite two way player
Elite player
Two way player

I like him too. I wouldn't be upset to somehow snag LaVine either. He certainly needs polish but just about every top player does.

I should clarify that I did not photoshop this together, source on twitter. Probably could though.

Vonleh and Favors are very similar players, js. Do we want two Favors on this team? Wouldn't it be harder to score?

1 has problems hitting everything other than dunks, the other has range to the NBA 3 point line. Yip. Basically the same.

I don't care where you got it. I appreciate you posting it here.
