    Let em. Fultz and Ball are so close, it doesn't matter which one we get. This isn't KAT / DAR or Simmons / Ingram.

    Well honestly I'm not sure how I feel about Fultz. We've already got a lot of young guys who don't affect the win column... all that talent and I might rather have Fox or Ball.

    We have TWO first round picks this year folks.

    With our draft team, that makes me feel pretty good. I think Magic's plan of giving our youth another year in another environment is probably the best course of action.

    They will either increase their trade value or develop most likely, and be in the best shape of their lives. We may have quite a future dynasty ahead of us if we are patient enough to let it develop.

    I think you were wanting this but maybe it wasn't handy?

    Fultz has a 6'9" wing span, thats ridiculous for a 6'3" guy....ball is 6'6" with a 6'7" wingspan

    Fox showed me a lot...... after their loss. That kid was destroyed by losing. That's what we need. People who HATE losing. Because as a fan, I hate it.

    Keep the pick and take Ball. I like using big guards in 2k.

    Take that tanking Pho, the basketball gods answered correctly.
    One more year and we'll finally be done with the Nash trade. And I think we'll be done with "the NBA owes us for CP3" considering we kept our pick the past three season.

    The discussions have already started but I'm looking forward to it. Lot's of options now.

    Then why didn't anyone else fleece him?

    You also forget Isiah Thomas and Jae Crowder and hiring Brad Stevens out of the blue.

    That measurement was taken back in 2014 or something. I think he's taller now with probably a longer wingspan.

    We'll find out in Laker workouts I'm sure.

    Josh Jackson is legit. Great defender and his shooting steadily improved throughout the season.

    I don't think he's the right fit for us though.

    Honestly I like Fox better than Ball right now if we keep the pick.

    I trust our scouting department, but I'm leaning Fox.
