2017-18 NBA Playoffs - Week 2

I don’t care.
We should have taken Mitchell.
There’s really no way around it. We lack talent all over this roster. You take the best player. Period.
Phil got cute with the pick.

Your hindsight is so good, but have a heckuva eye doctor. The fact that Phils scouting team had Mitchell so high is a GOOD THING. That means that our scouts are good. If our scouts are good and knew Mitchell would be good, but think Frank is going to be better, I recommend that you wait until Frank hits 21 before you complain...

Dotson's good as well so our scouting department knows what they are doing.

Frank is okay but we would be lucky if he will be contributing half to a team's overall success as Mitchell is doing at the moment.

What would suck big time is that if the triangle offense was the determining factor in choosing Frank over Mitchell.

Remember when KP was supposed to be not much his rookie year? Young foreign guys are supposed to be nothing amazing in year one. People wanna act like Frank is a dud or doesn't have the superstar it factor. If he develops into Mark Jackson with better defense is he still a "ho hum" pick?

Another easy championship for GS.

[frothbrain]

Rozier embarrassed Bledsoe all game. Bucks need to offer him the max.

[HEZI]

Eventually the Pelicans are going to have to put Davis on Durant because he's just going to cook up everybody else

[Tron Carter]

Seeing the rookies balling out in the playoffs is disheartening man.

not as disheartening as having to see you bitch about it every other page in this thread. actually not disheartening at all, just redundant af.

[knicks94]

GS treating this match up like a pick up game.

[xNewYorkMadex]

Im honestly surprised GSW is only leading the poll by 3.

Those guys dont have any competition. Shredding NOP w/o Curry right now. W/ a healthy roster, this team is one of, if not the greatest team of all-time. Not even trying to exaggerate. KD shifted the balance of power way too much when he joined that team. All 4 of their players in their prime, 2 of them MVP's. And then to go along w/ the offensive system, its too much for anyone to overcome in a 7 game series.

Tell me that when to when you start paying my electrical bills. Until then

rockets warriors will be the only good series in the west

[Dr. Detfink]

Golden State Warriors are basically showcasing to Giannis and Unibrow, future FA acquisitions. Warriors in a sweep.

Rockets vs Utah, Houston in 6.

Philly beats Boston in 6 games.

Toronto beats Cleveland in seven.

Breaking news Bledsoe and Hornacek reunited in Milwaukee.

[EchelonNYK]

The momentum New Orleans had coming into this series went away real fast when they stepped foot in Golden State

I will be content if Frank becomes a 6'5 7'1 wingspan version of Pablo Prigioni.

But it is delusional to say that we didn't miss out on Mitchell. People have the right to be upset and their opinions should be respected.

Disappointed, for sure. Upset? At someone? Maybe. But no more or less than anyone else that didn't get him. Knicks weren't unique in missing out.

Dynasty

[TheBigBoss]

Just go ahead and say you're going to Golden State Giannis...that guy ain't sticking around the Bucks for long.

Thats why we need to get our sh*t together! I truly believe we will have a shot at getting him in FA, I think he is ready for a bigger market than Milwaukee.

Is Kostas Antetokounmpo declaring for this draft or next?

Nobody viewed Mitchell as a top 10 pick, so if they are are truly upset then they cant truly believe in tanking.

Yeah that argument is very convenient but non-sequitur.

If we want to rise from the doldrums we can not always justify mistakes by saying that other teams committed the same.

Fans, especially those that stuck with this team through thick and thin, have a right to be upset.

So why is no one upset we didn't pick OG or Kyle Kuzma?
