Why isn't this board more critical of Anthony Black?

Guys, it's 2025, I think it's time to stop arguing about Vucevic.

If I look at the Wemby draft. After Wemby, its really a crapshoot so far. Way to early to call anyone busts, but early enough to say that after Wemby / Brandon Miller, there is no clear consensus.

I wasn't wrong about Vuc and Fournier. Neither players are winners. Vuc teams have been the same for the last 10 years. Always struggling to be medicre, but they always fall short

First I don’t remember the JB thing, Second We didn’t draft him so IDC. Your argument, was that Bamba was our “center of the future.” Not that NV and EF were winners or not.

EDIT: Yes, there was some mention of the guy that went 11th, and who posters had between 7-9 on their draft boards…. It looks like MANY were wrong about Bouknight.

It’s also the same draft thread where I ultimately settled on Franz Wagner and Suggs…and where you made the argument that Giddy was the next Luka:.. THAT 2021 Draft…

My evaluation of young talent is probably on par with most which as of late supersedes yours considering I was just recently 1000% accurate about Mohamed Bamba.

You also can’t tell me I’m wrong about Black then say time will tell, least of all without your rebuttal. As it turns out yelling “you wrong yo.” Doesn’t really prove anything which you’ve done twice now as you disparage others ability to evaluate talent while striking out yourself.
Didn't you disparage me about my evaluation of young players to begin with? I questioned your ability to look at age when evaluating players because that was one of your Bouknght arguments that age didn't matter.

OMG I forgot about your obsession with players ages. You hyped up a player for being 4 days younger in that same thread. It’s not even worth going back to that.
