Gasol has big upside but very raw. I lean toward Gray at #47 if he's there

I'd be happy with Green or Gray. Gasol does have upside, but I think we've cultivated enough youth and now it's time to find role pieces that can play now. If we can keep DS for MLE money, that'd be cool. Young's going to definitely be that spark off the bench- we need more than the big three scoring. He'll need to work on his D for sure though. That's where I'd be scared, especially with our current coaching philosophy.
