nice working with ill to get Oladipo on this team. Was really worried about getting a a guard that could play make but could also score and still defend each guard position. While he isn't a pure point. Having Jokic mitigates his need to be a pure point but playing with Russell a lot doesn't allow him that opportunity like he had in Orlando.

I'm hoping he gets who he wants at 105

It will be cool if I don't. My next pick was not till 160 so I wanted to round out the starters first. Once I got Val... I knew I would move him.

agreed, I understand like 30 mins or so if you are finalizing something but shouldn't use the time to figure out a deal IMO.

Greenie got too cute in her trade downs and has missed out on some opportunities to land some real quality contributors. I think she realized at #91, that there wasn't really anyone truly putting her over the top in a 2nd option role. She's made some quality moves, but after taking on Adams (not a scoring option) as her 2nd player, she really needed to make a splash with some of that depth. She should be targeting particular players already selected, offering up some of that depth that she has already acquired.

She's already in a pretty big hole. She's asking Kawhi to carry her entire offense and the PG pool has completely dried up.
