I like Jenkins, he is a good shooter and can handle the ball, however defense and size is a concern for him specially with a small PG with him, they would be a really small backourt with Chris Paul and even with Teague although Jeff has more defensive tools. I see now him more of a scorer off the bench and I think we should go with BPA at draft day and that seems to be KCP, Muhammad or Franklin, all of them have legit size for their positions and on my opinion are better options to become starters at NBA level.

I really do not want to draft Plumlee or Ollynik, we need a true center as Adams or Dieng, I would be really pissed if we draft Plumlee I could live with Ollynik.

I would be shocked if we could still Kabongo or Canaan and Leslie, Muscala, Ennis or Jaiteh on the second round

Ollynik, Plumlee, Nogueira or Whithey if Adams or Dieng are available and Saric and Crabbe if KCP, Schröder, MCW or Franklin are avaiable, I have to think a little bit more about Adekotunbo

I stopped when I saw Tony Snell, Kawhi Leonard's clone...

Steven Adams and Caldwell Pope, if not available Dieng and Franklin.

There are better options at the 2nd round like Kabongo, Wolters, Canaan, McCallum or Peyton Silva

I haven't seen him play but on any mock draft but on Nbadraft.net he is appearing at a late 2nd round pick, his numbers are really average at best on a bad team, I think there are better options available by the time we pick, younger players with higher upside and higher production on better teams against tougher competition.

I think he is someone we can find on our 2 2nd round picks, there are better options with the first round picks.

I agree, he could be a good addition to our bench, a good scorer, even in some games he could play significant time but defense win games and he is really terrible at it.

He is not starting material, defense will limit his presence on the game, go for a safer option as Dorrell Wright or Corey Brewer.

Copeland is really bad on defense, that is the reason that has taken him out of the game, we need defense on the wings.

I like him as I like Bullock or Crabbe, I think 17 is a bit higher for all of them, I can see them dropping to early 2nd round, that's why I would like to pack our 2 2nds for a higher 2nd pick

1. Van Gundy, 2. Messina 3. McMillan 4. Budenholzer 5. Drew

After predraft measurements, Adams hands are one of the biggest hands on the draft so I guess that his hands are no longer a concern. Dieng's measurements were also great he is near a 7 footer, he would be a good guy for us. Gobert's measurements are great, I think he will climb on the mock draft and we will have no chance at him. Muhammad's measurements were not impressive, experts are beginning to think he could fall on mock drafts, should be a no brainer for us if he falls. Nogueira will not be selected on the middle of the first round, late first or 2nd round should be his place, he is not ready yet. Caldwell Pope, Goowin and Franklin's measurements were good, they have good size for SG and are good prospects for us, I would take them in thar order.

He is not even a starter on an European team, how can he be an Nba player? plus he has not declared for the draft

I like that Mayo, Dorrel Wright and Brandan Wright mentions. We need a SG, Lou is not a starting SG, Mayo fits better with Teague, he will not take the ball out of his hands and provides 3pt shooting, Evans will demand the ball a lot and we will have a PG and SG with no much 3pt shooting, not to mention that signing Mayo would be a lot cheaper, however I don't doubt Evans is better but in terms of fit an production/price for Hawks Mayo is better option. Dorrell Wright would also be a great addition, defense, rebounding, 3 pt shooting, steals, blocks, he could start at the 3.

McDermott has not declared for the draft, McCollum will not be available on first round.

Simply said, we don't need Milsap, our PF is Horford. Jefferson could be a good addition but we would need to complement him with a defensive center like Dalembert, we don't need Hickson neither. I would pay 12 m$ for Jefferson. Iguodala could be a good fit also but we would need to complement him with shooters to compensate his lack of 3pt range, Mayo or Kevin Martin would be good assets to add with Iguodala, anyway I doubt we sign him and compromise our cap space to not sign a top level all-star, he is just another Josh Smith that would be paid 3 M$ less than Dwight Howard, I even think he has less impact than Smith on the game, I would not want to go that route unless we can sign him by 8M$ wich is very unlikely. Monta Ellis, Mayo or Tyreke Evans are players I think we should target and sign one of them. Mayo probably would be the best price/production combination, I think we can sign him for 5M$ and get our starting SG. Other players I think would be good and cheap fits here would be Brewer, Dalembert, Dorrell Wright and Jarret Jack, all could be signed for 3 M$ Teague/L. Williams/Kabongo Mayo/Jenkins/Caldwell Pope Brewer/Bullock/Scott Horford/I. Johnson/Scott Jefferson/Dalembert/Adams

Teague Mayo Dorrell Wright Horford Al Jefferson Bench L. Williams J. Jenkins C. Brewer I. Johnson S. Dalembert K. Caldwell Pope S. Adams R. Bullock I. Canaan or N. Wolters or M. Kabongo or P. Silva

I have also a great feeling with Bledsoe, he is supposed to be better defensively than Teague.

Who are ahead of that picks? I doubt Gobert falls to us due to the hype he is receiving, anyway I still would prefer Adams or Dieng.

Well, Schröder is a great PG, I think he could become the steal of the draft.

Some data about Draft Bigs Mason Plumlee - Scouts tell NBA.com that Duke PF/C Mason Plumlee may not be "big enough to handle things inside in the pros." Plumlee (6'11/245) was an excellent rebounder at Duke, averaging 9.9 a night. He certainly has the athleticism to guard stretch fours, but he won't be able to bang on the block with NBA-sized bigs. Plumlee also can't stretch the defense himself as he's an inept jump-shooter. We'd expect him to land somewhere in the 20s of June's draft as a rotational big. Cody Zeller - A Pacific Division executive tells NBA.com that Indiana's Cody Zeller is "not a five.".Zeller is listed at 7'0/240, so it's a bit of a surprise. "I'm not sure he's as good as his brother [Tyler], to be honest," the exec said. "He might be in the long run, but right now, he really scares me. He's got good footwork but I'm really afraid of him ... he can't go up over guys and finish, and he's always off balance." Zeller does run really well for a man of his size, but he'll have to show more toughness during the pre-draft process to climb up draft boards. He's outside the lottery right now after getting embarrassed by Syracuse in the NCAA Tournament Kelly Ollynyk - According to NBA.com, most teams have Gonzaga's Kelly Olynyk rated ahead of Indiana's Cody Zeller. Olynyk averaged just 7.3 rebounds per game in the West Coast Conference, a red flag for general managers looking for a physical dominator. While Zeller is more of a 4/5 prospect, Olynyk is a 3/4 thanks to his shooting touch. Both players will be best served in a reserve role at the NBA level, but both have a chance to go in the lottery because size sells. Olynyk did lead the nation in PER last season. This only confirms what I thought about this 3 guys, this guys would not be able to solve our problems on the paint, in fact I hope they are drafted ahead of our picks, not for Zeller, I think he could be a valuable piece. Adams, Dieng and Whithey would be better fits here. Also some info about Allen Crabbe - ESPN's Fran Fraschilla says Cal SG Allen Crabbe "plays defense in a tuxedo." In other words, Crabbe is stiff and can't keep opponents in front of him. He does bring plus size to the two-guard spot at 6'6/205 and went 209-of-547 (38.2 percent) on 3-pointers during three NBA seasons. If Crabbe can get better defensively, he'll be a steal in the back end of the first round
