At pick 31, you take a chance on a guy that would've gone in the 1st round, even if he has a heart condition.

If he wants to play for the Herd he can go ahead and do that. If we draft him I'll be irate.

I am fully prepared for it at 60.

Maybe the literal only situation where Alex realizes his potential is under his big bro's tutelage.

He also was a late show at some kind of scrimmage with the Bucks that held up the scrimmage. Can’t think that went over well.

It's not hard to be better than the Ali Dia of the NBA...

For those who don't get the reference...

Nepotism has worked thus far!

Sam Merill is going to make you pay for forgetting about him.

I hope he does, but I didn't forget. Today after someone posted that he's older than Rashad Vaughn I lost all faith in him.

The fact he's a bit older is a good thing for a championship team, gives him a better shot to crack the rotation than a 19 or 20 year old. It's not like anyone is expecting Merrill to develop into a starter, I think he'll be a solid rotation player for us this upcoming season. He'll basically be Forbes replacement and I like Merrill more than Forbes.

Was it a one off thing or was it a repeated issue with him? I remember it being discussed years ago but couldn’t tell you anything about it. Is there video?

There is video somewhere.

Houston and Brooklyn having really nice drafts so far. Curious to see if we keep our picks.

I’m all for Alex at 60…I mean why the hell not? Basically ensures that Giannis would never leave us ever if two of his Bros are here.

Would also be fine with a swing on BJ Boston as someone mentioned previously. We should have a crack at one of those guys at 54.

Gets hopes up!

Drafts Garza!

Dies.

I hope we don’t continue down that road but I just have a sneaking suspicion…

What if we take David Duke? What if he’s really good?

Of course the Hawks get Cooper sheesh

Trae/Cooper offers zero defense, but ALL of the handles.

Yeah, I want BJ Boston in the weight room with Freak. Let's go.
