I figured Gordon would shoot up draft boards. He might not make it to Boston at #6.

Aaron Gordon is almost assuredly to be drafted before forwards Noah Vonleh and Julius Randle, front office sources tell Yahoo.

Don't you freaking dare go anywhere near Rivers, Flip....

Adrian Wojnarowski ✔ @WojYahooNBA
New Orleans is shopping forward Ryan Anderson and guard Austin Rivers, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

If we trade for Picks from Boston does that mean Pek will be our go to guy on offense? If we do that trade and are able to draft Gordon we could go from being a very offensively gifted team to a very offensively challenged team. I would see our starting lineup as Rubio, Martin (if still on the team) Gordon, Dieng, Pek. IMO offensively challenged but would be one of the better defensive Wolves teams in a while.

Haven't you liked Vonleh better than Gordon?

True but we would have 13 & 17 to add some scorong punch. Plus, at least we would develop an identity similiar to Chi or Memphis. Currently i don't know what we are.

I'm torn. I've kind of moved towards Gordon the last few days.

Vonleh is the much better offensive player, but I don't think he has the same head for the game that Gordon does.

DX now bumped Gordon up to 5 and dropped Vonleh down to 10. I think they switched them...

Is this the official draft party? Is it being held at Target Center. I remember the second Wolves Draft and I had VIP passes that a friend had won. I was in the club house discussing draft picks with wolves players and coaches. Clem Haskins was hanging out too. Got free beer and food also. Marshall Tucker band played for the event also. I think we drafted Felton Spencer that year.

Watching to see where the local stud goes. I'm thinking around 9-11. McDermott is going to have a good NBA career.

He's going to have to buck history, but I think he might be able to.

I hope he's gone before 13...

I'm pretty sure he will be gone by then. I love the kid, but not for the Wolves.

I've seen mocks with him at 13 and the Wolves passing on him.

If the Sixers draft Embiid they will have a future front court of Joel and Noel. I kind of like it. Would sound like a Christmas Carol them passing it back and forth. Joel Noel Joel Noel. I read something similar on ESPN so stole that one.

I will hold you to that one. I think he goes between 8 and 15.

I wish Embiid would fall to the Celtics. It won't happen though.

Embiid could be perfect for those who want the Wolves to get the draft picks and then really, really, suck this year.
