sounds like taking on Parsons contract would be the centerpiece of a swap in 4/9 picks.

I would go wild for Doncic. Bamba? Not so much.

Bamba reminds me of Embiid without the post game or a player like Clint Capela, but he is already a better shooter. He can actually handle the ball too.

I know he's being rumored at around 5, but to be honest, the Kings should be taking him at 2. If he is there at #5, I'm trying to get him.

Never liked Bagley. I'm not really a fan of college kids that come from Duke. They rarely become what they should be.

We could also use a real wing player. The weakest area on the team is #3 spot. Either Bridges or Knox sound good.

Anyway I look at it, if the Knicks don't go off the board, they've got a chance of getting a good starting player for years to come.

It's not that I'm so down on Bamba individually, I just don't know if the dominant center game exists anymore. Everything is run and gun now.

In addition, KP needs the floor spread. Not sure if him at the 4 and a guy like Bamba at the 5 would work.

Bamba can shoot, run, and handle the ball.

He's the modern day big man. He's that good. I want the best players possible. If Embiid and Simmonds can work out, when Simmonds isn't a shooter, and Embiid shoots about as well as Bamba projects, it can work. They can figure it out. This isn't like getting a big similar to Jahlil Okafor.

If Bamba does go at #5 to Dallas, they're going to have a really really good future with Smith Jr. and Bamba.
