What do you guys think of Rico Gathers as a 2nd round pick? He's thick beef who knows how to rebound. Decently athletic for a guy who weighs 260-270. His major flaws seem to be his post scoring and free throw shooting, but I think those are things that can be worked on in the D-League.

If Poeltl is on the board when we draft, anyone think Masai might phone around and gauge interest in a Poeltl/Wright package? The two were dynamite together last year, and would potentially be a solid young bench duo for a rebuilding team.

His also recorded a zero points and zero rebound game this year. Cal has taken him out of the starting line up as well. At the beginning of the year I was hoping he would fall to us but, now his starting to remind of Christian Wood from last year's draft.
...I'm still high on Christian Wood and desparately want him on our D-League team. He was playing way better in the D-League then I would have guessed (as I also viewed him as a project pick) with a PER around 20.1 last I checked.
Outside of that though; it does kind of sound like he's falling now because he's actually playing and seems like more of a project then originally thought of. I'm okay with that kind of falling."My biggest concern as a coach is to not confuse winning with progress." - Steve Kerr
