Mikal Bridges tonight: 18 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks.

I wanted the Bulls to draft him, but was okay with WCJ.

I also thought Philly should've kept him.

This entire post is me to a T. I was laughing my ass off at Philly for that trade. I thought it was a brilliant coup of a pick for them and then they dealt it. I was shocked.

He’s shaping up to be exactly what he projected to be. Strong player and will reach his ceiling, whatever it is.

I was shocked that they dealt him. Didn't make any sense to me. I am not a college guy, but from what I saw going into the draft I assumed he was a lock for them

We were all laughing when ESPN ranked Lonzo Ball over Zach, but how can it even be argued? Lonzo actually helps win his teams games, Zach does not.

LaMelo was still better than Coby White today.

His mom was so excited too. When they traded him I was surprised.

If Philly kept Bridges that also means they might not have traded for Tobias Harris (they used the Miami pick in that trade). That would be a win for them right there (Harris isn't a bad player, but it wasn't a good trade IMO).

For the Bulls what would've happened if they drafted Bridges over WCJ? I assume they don't draft Chandler Hutchison.

Fav player to watch.

Can’t watch Trae. He’s Hardenesque with his flopping.

I honestly don't get why the NBA doesn't seem to even think about cracking down on this stuff. It slows down the game and makes it less fun to watch.
