I was a fan of KOQ when we got him but he made me a much bigger fan with the way he played for us last year and really grew last year and with KOQ it's not only what he does in the game but he's also a great teammate and a guy that other players like having around which is a big thing for a team if you wanna win in the NBA. With all of that i'd still trade him if we can get a 1st round pick in this draft for him.
Phil obviously has something in mind when it comes to his big men cause he's still bringing a lot of big men in for tryouts and interviews and some of them are centers which there's no reason for us to draft with what we already have unless he's planning on trading one or two of the big men we already have. We have need at every other position but PF and C and this is a good draft to fill some spots at the other 3 spots. I'm all about getting all the draft picks we can in this draft and in the future.

I do like O'Quinn and thought he should have played over Seraphin 2 yrs ago but I also think as he age his shortcomings will start to show through. His lack of athleticism has lead him to become a pull and tug to get leverage guy and I am not sure he can keep up his excellent blk rate which pretty much is his only saving grace as a defender. O'Quinn is a good player now though and would be an excellent back up on a playoff team. The Spurs, Blazers, OKC, and even GSW would be nice places for him.
The problem going forward is that Kyle has an opt out after next year and I doubt he will be looking to stay at the same price. Do you really want to lock up a 28 y/o back up on a team who has a long way to go in their rebuild and already has two younger players that play his position? So I think the best option would be to sell high and try to find a younger player on a cost controlled salary.
Agreed. Sell high. Ideally we could get a late 1st round pick, who would be locked into 4 years of a rookie contract.
That's exactly what we should do with him.
