Same complaint I had with bosox mock, don't see why the Kings take two PFs with those picks they get. Definitely would pair Terrence Ross (who I really like) with one of those two guys.

PF is the thinnest position on the Kings roster. Nobody besides Jason Thompson on the roster and Terrence Jones can play both forward spots, Moultrie can play both big spots. They've also got Tyreke, Jimmer, and Thornton at the two.

 

[elcheato]

They're thin at PF, but I think I'd rather go with another guy who I think could start. Don't think Jones is going to play well as a SF in the NBA, and I would like to think Ross is big enough and athletic enough to play SF instead of SG.

Fair enough, I can see that side of it.

 

[bosoxlover12]

I didn't know TJones was a PF, not a SF. Taking the two makes no sense.

 

[bosoxlover12]

Also don't see Ross falling past Phoenix here


I don't know why he's staying so low key in this draft process, but he's a far better scorer than Lamb is, and that's what Phoenix wants

IDK... turned into a crap shoot with all these trade rumors.

 

[bosoxlover12]

You and Teagle both.... why are you putting #16 to the Rockets? It would clearly be moved in the Kings deal

 

[Teagz]

You and Teagle both.... why are you putting #16 to the Rockets? It would clearly be moved in the Kings deal

You think all three?

Damn the Rockets are stupid.

 

[bestkeptsecret13]

You and Teagle both.... why are you putting #16 to the Rockets? It would clearly be moved in the Kings deal

I just went off what you said... #12 & #18

 

[bosoxlover12]

Some type of #12, #16, #18, Lowry for #5, Evans type deal is what I'd see

 

[Pugz]

they arent moving evans in a deal..
