    Didn’t see a thread for this yet but do y'all have any guys you would like us to come out the draft with the 39th pick?

    Id personally be happy to come out with euro player Sergio de Larrea. 6’6 point / combo guard averaging 45% FG & 41% 3pt. He’s projected 2nd round but I see a lot of Mavs fans saying they should pick him at 30. Would be a nice gamble to swing on as we prepare for life after Fred

    If not Sergio, I would like us to go get a real 7’+ in Luigi Suigo if possible

    Y’all got any sleepers you like that wouldn’t make this draft a complete wash?

    Who gives af... no one in the 2nd will make this team any good or be used to make any difference. Just play FVV 40min a game, give the ball to Durant until he gets an "injury", and pray on offense. Watch the GM and Coach throw players under the bus and spew bullsht.

    Tyler Nickel (6'7", SF) - 3 straight seasons shooting 40% from 3.

    Fletcher Loyer (6'4", SG) - 3 straight seasons shooting over 44% from 3.

    We have no offensive system, so just stack as many shooters as possible to offset the lack of coaching.

    You forgot Stone quitting right before the trade deadline like he does every year. "Maybe it's just not our year".

    He will probably be gone before the 39th pick.

    If he is there for one of our SRPs... I think the ambassador to Italy (TF) will encourage his GM to select

    Luigi Suigo 7-4 245 C Italy Intl.

    I know for sure anyone we draft in the 2nd will be better than Tate. I don't mind actually keeping that pick this year. We have slots to fill.

    He’s good enough for the 53th pick. He might go earlier than that.

    I wouldn’t mind trading up a few spots if Jefferson is available, otherwise we should target a lob threat :)
