If you guys are disappointed with the 9th pick, wait till we resign Kanter to that big extension. We all know it's coming

Can’t wait for Bamba to start looking like Kg and Sexton looking like Westbrook in workouts. Someone would drop to knicks. Cavs is weird because they can pick anyone.

That's why I want Miles.

Whoever is left of Trae Young, Wendell Carter, and Mikal Bridges. If there's nothing there that we like than I guess we take Miles Bridges as a consolation prize.

What about that PG from Alabama? Sexton?

Celtics has a gang of role players in the conference finals rn

They do?

Chriss is bad and that team would be soooo exposed on defense. Phx has options, IMO.

igor is supposed to be a defensive wiz though. so maybe he can get booker and ayton to be + defenders. they def have the ability to do it for sure imo.

Needs to develop some scheme then because I don’t think you can really teach IQ. I don’t think Booker will ever be a + defender, but we’ll see. Hopefully Igor does wonders with them.

i think there's hope for ayton at least. he showed some flashes this year. jackson should be fine. you might be right about booker though

we'll see what happens i guess

This outcome gives us something to talk about. 1 more month until the draft.

Oh give it a break life changes left and right. No guarantee lottery shaped out the same.

I've been back and forth on Miles all year. Going into the season I predicted we'd end up with the 6th worst record (and any other year, 29 wins=5th or 6th) and we'd take Miles. However, he didnt seem to improve from yr 1 to 2. He's still a clunky ball handler. Also he lacks ideal length, tho I'm interested in getting official measurements from the combine

Hopefully Porter drops but I rather have Miles.

there's no way in hell that vlade passes on doncic or ayton if either is there.

It’s the Kings...that’s my only defense. :lol:

People sleeping on Mikals defense and shooting ability lmaoo. He was the best player on that Nova team and showed hard work to get better. Stop sleeping.

Ultimately I blame Jeff and as a result Perry. Should have sat the vets way more.

That being said we were pretty awful post injury. Don’t know if we really could have been that much worse.

Looked like Jeff was rebelling and just doing his thing. Perry can say "sit the vets" and Jeff will still put them in there. Not a surprise he was fired at the airport.

not a single one is a tier 1 star, good game
