I'm ready to be done with this regime.
I thought they had a plan, a philosophy. They are just throwing crap at the wall now.
Huge hole at PF and we trade one away and add 3 guards.

They must REALLY love this kid if they were so paranoid about him going in 2 picks before us. Very puzzling.


Mind boggling. Why trade for two picks if u didnt want them.

To Move up two spots. Lots of quality players left.

Nah, obviously they just gave up the extra pick on a whim because they're idiots :roll:

Exactly as you pointed out in an earlier post, you whine a lot.

Dane Moore@DaneMooreNBA
Devin Booker was far more successful last season when he shared the floor with Ricky Rubio, per CleaningTheGlass.

Booker + Rubio both on: +6.3 net rating (O 117.4, D 111.1)
Booker on, Rubio off: -6.3 net rating (O 111.4, D 117.7)

Rubio and D'Angelo Russell will share the floor

This is what I mean. How often do they end up in the team that stashed them/traded in draft night (besides our Rubio case).

Woodard, Tillman, or Bane?


Would hope so but judging off the other choices we might end up having the worst talent evaluators in the league. And here most of us had been so hopeful about this front office.

Last chances 28/33

It's a waste really. But who knows. Not like they had any need for all these picks. The international stashes might pick up some international fans at least.

Pritchard jumps up a little.

At this point you just grab talent, regardless of position.
