I am. With what was left in the board, I'd be happy with either him, Liddell or Wesley.


Oh, and I'm much happier with him than I'd be with Mark Williams. (this sentence might sting in a few years, but whatever)

Or he can be another Hutch.

Was not expecting this, but so many guys from 16-28 were interchangeable. MN took LaRavia the pick after ours, well above where he's been mocked. If the Bulls think Terry is the best player at that spot, I'm willing to see what he's got. Like any of us really know what the hell we're talking about? we're all just going by mocks we see and highlight reels and maybe some games we've seen. GM's have 10x more info than we do.

It sucks. I’ve watched him play and it’s NOTHING consistent with what we need. He offers nothing that we don’t already have.

gotta what percentage of people here are specifically mad because the graphic said 'guard' for a 6'7" guy they knew nothing else about

The Timberwolves will also send a future second-round pick to the Grizzlies as part of the deal, sources tell ESPN.

I like Terry, he was the best PG in this draft IMO but I would've preferred to trade down.

you need good players, period. He's 19, another "draft and follow" type player. I love it.

We could have drafted Malaki Braham.

This. Might have had a chance at getting Terry at 22.

Terry seems like a bit of an all rounder which isn't exciting, but not the worst thing in the world.

He might. But he wasn't promised, and we apparently explored other possibilities, and I'm a firm believer in process over results.
Constantly underwhelmed by the Bulls.

Malaki Branham was a steal by the Spurs.

This entire board should be in full meltdown mode right now. I don’t know how much college ball you all watched last season, but I watched a ton!! This was as about as bad of a pick as we could have made. Worse that anything under the previous regime and it’s not even close people. Trust me when I say this. There were so many other directions that we could have gone.
