    I think Vando can develop the corner 3. The other day I made a comp with Derrick Jones and it's pretty much what I think of Vando. They're both left handed with a similar shot form and their best trait is their defense and physical abilities. Jones was key for Dallas this year, and enough of a threat from 3. Vando must develop to be the same

    i think utah decided vando was a center, too, and that's why they dumped him. i think redick and utah are wrong. vando's a sf who's not a shooter. that's ok. teams win without 4 and 5 out. it's possible.

    I'm glad we didn't draft a 5. I'm pretty sure Lakers were hoping for Jared McCain, but were ecstatic that Dalton landed in their lap. This shows that their priority is shooting, which it should be. Maybe we trade for a 2nd today and get a big, but there are also plenty of options on the trade market. We just need somebody to competently backup AD, so i'm glad we didn't burn a pick on that.
