From GM nickbushart:
With the grizzlies taking the guy I really wanted in Hunter I'm torn between adding a wing and a back up point guard in wright. But after trading TJ Warren and PJ Tucker I decide for a wing who I feel has Draymond Green potential in Martin. He might take a couple years to progress but we have Danny Granger there and hopefully will be able to resign Gerald Green. If we resign the people we need to our starting lineup will be Knight-Bledsoe-Green-Kaminsky-Splitter with our second team being Chamlers-Bullock/Temple-Granger-Wright-Len. I like what we have done in the draft. We've added Vets that can really help us (Temple, Birdman, Chalmers, Splitter) and we've added young talent that can propel us (Kaminsky and now Martin).
On the clock we now have GM Jill Kong and the Bucks who ended up at #27 via the LA Lakers.
