I really hope someone take Mitchell before us.

Also orobably worth talking to a few teams abut their first this year

You’ve got nothing to worry about. Mitchell will be long gone before 13. That kid is built for the draft process. He’s gonna go into workouts with the same giant chip on his shoulder he played with all last year and just out-compete everybody. Some GM is gonna look at him, see Kyle Lowry, fall in love, and he’ll be  gone no later than 9 or so.

Two missed free throws with the game on the line.

Pistons taking Cunningham, Rockets taking Green, Cavs taking Mobley, Raptors taking Suggs.

Unless the Cavs end up trying to move Sexton. I think he and Garland are both good players but I’m not sure they will work long term. Too small.

Neither are really long term solutions. I think Green and Suggs are better choices. But it is also Cleveland.

The one thing that slightly worries me is that he can be pretty abrasive to those around him but he’s won before and he’s a great offensive coach. Hope the players buy in, if not, major changes need to be made.

I wonder if we see any trades as a result of this. Personally with the right coach and everyone healthy I think we could make a decent playoff run this year but I don’t know what this front office is going to do. Their jobs are on the line and they know it.

Best news of the offseason by a mile

I guarantee there will be changes. The question is how many.

Would you trade Brogdon Lamb #13 for Simmons?

They can’t trade 13 unless it’s for another first round pick.

No. I don't really see Simmons and Domas being their best playing together.

I think the first move needs to be breaking up Myles and Domas. Don't care who goes at this point, though I prefer Myles stay. But we've got enough evidence that we're better when they aren't together for extended periods,

Or once they make the pick. Its a dumb rule. I get why its there, but when there is an easy work around whats the point

I did not know that. You want Simmons in Indy? I can’t make my mind up on it. I know he has skills that would help us but his limitations are just so glaring. You just can’t really trust the guy when it matters.

No. I don’t see how he’d fit the roster without a complete overhaul and the guy can’t shoot which is a problem.

I could see guys like Doug, JHoliday. and Brogdon work with him. If Myles could get back to shooting the way he did 2/3 years ago him too, but his actual mechanics are too inconsistent. Basically just surround him by shooters and another guy who is adequate as a secondary ball handler/on ball creator. So yah not us rn
