Following 2016 potential draftees

Probably Baldwin. My top choice would be to trade down to the late teens or 20's and get Bembry.

BTW, my bust potential comment was meant to be funny.

How high do u think Baldwin's ceiling is, and where do u think it will realistically end up?

He's most likely a complementary piece. And I see him playing off-ball at first. But if he can shoot low-40s from 3 and play awesome defense everywhere on the perimeter, then you've found yourself a nice piece. If he works hard and learns to create his own offense, then you've got yourself a damn good player.

The Murray thing could be a smokescreen of sorts. Last year, Perrin said that the most impressive workout was Kelly Oubre. However, the Jazz obviously liked Trey Lyles more. So perhaps team need made a difference in the final decision.

Walt has always been a best player available guy, maybe Kelly Obre had a better workout or it was a smokescreen but I think they thought Lyles was better prospect. So they took him. Walt mentioned in the interview that need is always third on the list after BPA and athleticism.

He never said Murray's name though. So he aint trying to smokescreen.
 
Damn, correction, most interesting thing: Perrin said he would draft Ingram with the #1 overall pick.
Most interesting thing is that he said he liked Ingram more because of need. Then said they would pick best player available.

3&D player at first with a chance to grow into something more later on.

Yeah he did contradict himself.

I think I really like the idea of drafting the Baylor kid Cy was pimping. The Demarre Carroll clone. We could use a 3 & d guy and the kid is supposedly tough and pretty long if memory serves. I really, really, realy want to trade down about 10-15 spots, pick up a 1st next year in doing so, and draft that Baylor kid, or Zipser, or Maker...someone...there would be so many exciting prospects in the 20's and to get an extra 1st in 2017 would be sweet as ****.

Maybe Denver would do 12 and a couple 2nds for 19 and their (top 5-7 protected?) 1st next year??? They'd then have 7, 12 and 15 this year which could be used to draft three dudes or maneuver up to maybe get Ingram or Murray or someone else they highly desire.
 
You know though, Taurean Prince would look good playing for either the Warriors or Cavs right now. Why Iguodala can't go hard to the rim when he's being guarded by Richard Jefferson is beyond me.
 
Spurs want Baldwin, Mike Schmitz loves Baldwin, #bern loves Baldwin...what more do you people need?

I got a fever and the only cure is more Baldwin.
