For the record, I’d be happy with only the first six players on my board. Guys below my top eight will have to knock somebody down.
And Patrick, Klay Thompson? Get out of here. He’s my third shooting guard behind Alec Burks and Marshon Brooks.

Size, shooting, bball IQ, what’s not to like? If he’s good enough for Mark Jackson, he’s good enough for me.

Alec Burks not in your top eight? I’m shocked. He’s been your guy for months.
