Hope we keep Tatum...I think Tatum and Fox are top 2 players in this draft
not concerned about fox shooting 20-something % from 3?

Jaylen Brown and Tatum= variations of Jimmy Butler and Paul George

Jaylen can be our future 2 and Tatum can be our future 3. The pg position is the most stacked in the NBA and after we draft a CENTER in next years draft we will always have options to fill out the pg position.

Have you scouted him. He has some very basic shooting problems that scouts think he can improve...kinda like JJ.

Long term I think you will see Brown at 3 and Tatum at 4. Brown will defend the opponents better player at the 3 or 4.
DKC:  Rockets
CB Draft: Memphis Grizz
Players: Klay Thompson, Jabari Parker, Aaron Gordon
Next 3 picks: 4.14, 4.15, 4.19

I think with roster as is you retain KO and play Horford at the 4. Tatum at the 4 off the bench is okay. Depending on how he does there may tell you what to do the following year.

IT, AB, Crowder, Horford, KO
Rozier, Smart, Brown, Tatum, Zizic
Nader, Yab, Semi, Theis


I think if you are going to add Hayward you have to look at Crowder and AB for a PF with Brown moving to starting SG.

IT, Brown, Hayward, X, Horford
Rozier, Smart, Tatum, Yab, Zizic
Nader, Semi, Theis, X

I think Horford just has to play C at least on D. Just too slow to guard perimeter for me :(
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

quoting 'Greg B' on RealGM after 2017 trade deadline.
Read that last line again. One more time.
