If you can get Markkanen, or even like... Bogdanovic, its good. What if you just aim lower and call him another Dario Saric? Still darn good pick at 16. I dont know.... but its hard to think of a player comp for him that isnt pretty enticing. He seems like he should be a day 1 contributor. I'm not too familiar with Markkanen's game but Filipowski can shoot, and with some pro coaching he'll continue to get better at it.

A guy that can contribute in this draft is a win. Jared McCain could be another option in that he can shoot the ball and develop into a back up primary ball handler.
May 21, 20241 yr Author imo they're in win now mode & will try to move their 1st round pick in a trade for a vet.

Its probably a waste of time talking about this year's draft. But till that happens pick16 looks like a somewhat exciting place to be this year so its a somewhat fun time waste.

May 21, 20241 yr I figured PG was going to stay in LA. Clippers will cave and give him the money cause they are moving into that new arena next year. And he wants to be in LA. im guessing we move to butler or Ingram at that point.

May 22, 20241 yr read a full 2 round mock today with NBA comp for every player. The comp given for Filipowski was Moritz Wagner. Other notable ones Baylor Schiereman - Joe Ingles Terrence Shannon- Kelly Oubre Tristan da Silva- Trey Lyles Kel'el Ware (6ers pick in this mock)- Brook Lopez Isaiah Collier- Tyreke Evans Devin Carter- Derrick White

While I don’t disagree that he’s not a true star type difference maker, given his age and fit (legit 3 and D), I would offer him the max. It would cost no draft compensation as well. No brainer him over PG.

May 23, 20241 yr Instead of maxing someone like OG Id rather just build a solid roster. Re-signing Oubre and Batum then get a bunch out of the group below. Mid tier- Monk, Caleb Martin, Okoro, Kyle Anderson Centers- Hartenstein, Valanciunas, Drummond Lower tier- Royce ONeal, Dario Saric, Taurean Prince, Lonnie Walker, On Miles Bridges- Ill trust the team's digging on that.

May 23, 20241 yr its nothing but bad news about our offseason. from PG to maxing OG, or settling for LaVine. Nothing but bad options.
