Next year World Champs should be his focus.

Of course I would take Ball #2. Would take him at #1 as well. He's going to be the best player from this draft and is already starting to look like it.

OK, I am not trying to pick a fight. I admit I'm torn with regard to Ball. I am not impressed with his play with the naked eye and his shooting numbers are horrendous. But the Lakers lose when he's Out.

We're not into future Khris Middleton' ish players, we don't do it like that.

Okay, I'll give your guy props. Tatum looks good. But ball is a perfect fit. Our structure relies on ball movement. He is without a doubt #1 in this class when it comes to fit. Balls vision. Is also #1, dude sees the floor like I haven't seen a rookie see the whole floor in a long time. His anticipation is also off the charts. He sees steals 3 steps before they happen. Guys hate his dad. But dudes on the team love this dude, he is an excellent team chemistry glue guy. They have total trust in him, and give up the ball to him without question, because they know they will get the ball back. Unselfish. He is complete opposite the trash his dad is. And that shot?? It's comin around. He's starting to hit and only improving daily. His grip is strong. Very strong hands for a skinny kid. He rips steals from opponents. Sure he needs some improvements. But he's what, 19? Very satisfied with choice thus far.

Ball is shooting 36/31/48. You guys need a thicker skin because I have news for you - this is historically putrid. Remember that I saw Rondo in his prime. Ball has skills, but he's no Rondo.

He is a Celtics fan and a Yankees fan... it's clear he doesn't understand life.
