Definitely Young. Majority would be villagers and their torches with a smattering of we'll sees and just a few pumped fists.


Young will be both fantastic offensively and disinterested defensively. That makes for a great back and forth.

Yeah probably Young will get a lot of people mad, for like 20 minutes, then we'all be here calling him the next Steph Curry, like we always do :D

This draft is just like last year's to me in terms of guys mocked near us

I have one guy I want slightly more than the next guy (DSJ, Mikal), then my clear 2nd favorite (Frank, Carter), then like 3 or 4 other guys I'd be okay with us taking, but think it'd be kind of a reach (Monk, Mitchell, and Zach Collins last year, Miles, SGA, Knox, and Walker this year)
BaF Lakers:

Darius Garland/Cory Joseph
Klay Thompson/Shaedon Sharpe
Keldon Johnson/De'Andre Hunter
Evan Mobley/Tari Eason
Nic Claxton/Draymond Green

Bench: Leonard Miller, Jett Howard, Markquis Nowell, Kennedy Chandler, Day'Ron Sharpe

I'm inclined to think the player that would outrage the most is likely the one the Knicks will wind up with.... just because.... Knicks. :lol:


Excellent point considering RealGM is where people who don't listen to Morrissey go to behave like they are trapped inside a Morrissey song.

Could Porter have shot up with painkillers before his workout? Is he a morphine addict? :o

The orgasms he experiences from playing with a vibrating butt plug tends to mitigate any physical discomfort.

Nah. A lot better than that. I really don’t want to like him, but he’s gonna Nash like. Hopefully he’s picked before we draft. He’s just bad defensively.

Steve Nash was a defensive liability except when he really put his mind to it and even then he was just OK which is probably what you'd be able to project for Young.

And if you told this board we could have a Steve Nash in his prime they'd drop their knickers like hoes in a flush gold mining town.

Nash had a way higher bbiq. Can see him being a Barea on steroids.

No guards please. They're all suspect and we have to sort out the ones we already have there.
Mikal, Miles, Porter, Carter. Any of these.

Porter.

Not sure how hes calculating that. nothing is set yet. even nbadraft.net has all those guys gone and Trae slipping to us. Still should have more to choose in that poll.
There's something about an underdog that really inspires the unexceptional.
