ya'll probably know me by now. all depends on the predraft work out / measurement results.

i slightly favor Gordon over Randle at the moment.

but I'm hoping for Randle to be a workout warrior and full 6ft 8+ barefoot if that happens i'll probably switch my stance.
 
Isn't Randle bigger than Milsap? Wasn't the knock on Milsap always his tweener size? If you couldn't make Milsap a 3, there is no way Randle is going to be a 3. Milsap even had more 3 type skills. . .

millsap was only 6ft 6 1/4, but he had huge wingspan 7ft 1 1/2. and he was very meaty when he came in to the league near 260lb.
randle definitely has a bigger frame body wise. but his wingspan is concerning. some dudes here are saying he only has 6ft 11 wingspan. didn't somebody call him an trex arm? 6ft 11 wingspan is a normal wingspan for somebody who is 6ft 6. and many 6ft 6 guys in the NBA has 6ft 11+ wingspan like milsap.


randle is not a tweener. regardless how big or tall he is, he is 4. that's not gonna change IMO. let's all hope he comes in big. i hate the idea of picking an undersized 4. we don't need that.
 
I'd take a long look at Vonleh vs Randle. If Vonleh can really play and score out on the floor, I might go that direction.

With Aaron Gordon, it depends on his feel for the game offensively, but there are a lot of skills missing right now.
 
IF, is came to us at 5 like the poll says and the guys left are like the poll says, then Im leaning Gordon or Smart..Wasn't a big fan of Smart but I get the sense he can be pretty damn special in the NBA. But, since I have to choose one, Ill go Gordon...at this point
 
LOL... what?? How??!!

If Hayward wasn't coming back then we will be awfully thin at the wing positions and I doubt we get a free agent wing that is as good as Hayward. That would make someone like Vonleh less likely. I personally have strong doubts about Randle's ability to play the 3 for extended periods as well. If Hayward helped solidify the 2 and 3 spots, then I would be much more open to whom I draft regardless of position. Honestly though I would not be surprised if one of the 4 people this thread considers to be off the board would still be available (probably Exum) and I would prefer any one of them.

You draft best player available, not for positional need.
 
It was between Gordon and Noah for me I went with Noah but I would be happy with either one. I would be ok with Randle too but really want Wiggins or Parker or Embiid if his back is ok.
