    Offseason is simple to me, either pair Giannis with KD and gut the core, or ship KD off and keep it together...

    Or run it back. Unfortunately that looks like the most likely scenario.

    Our future is in Alpi and Amen’s hands. Those hands have to be better shooters or we’re hosed as constructed.

    There are some Yaxel truthers out there, who are high on him. He might turn out solid with all the prep time he spent in college.

    The current notable factoid is on his age. Comparing to the Rockets, Yaxel (Sept 2002) is older than Reed (2004), Jabari (may 2003), Amen (Jan 2003), and JD Davison (Oct 2002).

    Worth a shot in the 2nd round. Better than whatever team wastes a good pick on Mara.

    This is the type of guy we should be looking for in 2nd rd. He's got 4-years experience, champion, elite shooter who plays smart. A guy like this can immediately contribute off the bench to help spread the floor even though he has defensive limitations he'll hustle his butt off. He's projected around our #39 selection, but could go sooner. We need more shooters on our bench, if we can get a stretch 4/5 candidate here, then I'm all for it, but those guys will likely be gone in 1st.

    2nd for sure, but he'll be long gone by then. His current mock is likely before #15 1st round
