With the 7th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, The Portland Trailblazers select. . .

I hope so.

 

Clingan has been projected to Charlotte on a couple of mocks

 

Yeah I think cha nabs cling and we get Salaun

 

Detroit will take Buzelis here, right?

 

The picks seem to be going to script so far. I think the Avdija trade signals Cronin doesn't want long term projects so I think it will be Clingan if not picked before.

 

We gotta take Matas if he falls to us

 

what I was wondering, if Matas is available do we take him?

 

Is Clingan considered NBA ready day one?

 

I still like Salaun

 

I like the havoc Salaun and Advija could bring together. I don't mind Clingan though either.

 

OK, now off script a little. Will Charlotte want Buzelis?

 

They wont pass on Clingan if he's there.

 

Not sure, But he should be ready within a year, not a long term project.

 

I will happily eat crow if I'm wrong about Clingan, but I'd rather take the chance and be wrong about him. I don't want to use a top 10 pick on a center.

 

Watch… we draft Knecht.

 

I have just been kinda hoping that Clingan was a smoke screen to get someone to trade up so that our real target will drop.

 

I hope not. Take a look at tankathon green and red and compare Buzelis to Clingan.

 

Was hoping for Salaun

 

Trade down to 11 with Chicago.
Let the Bulls get Matas & get our pick back

 

Welp
