What about Ike? He was in a lot of first round projections?

Maybe we don't though, might be ownership unwilling to pay.

Don't know much about him tbh.

Damn, so we're just gonna sit on Terrance Ferguson? Disappointing night, tbh.

That shows we're content to be a treadmill team.

We always buy picks. I'd be shocked.

Well... At least no Jackson, but the lack of activity is really disappointing. We're going into next year with the same bench, which was clearly the team's largest weakness.

Evans was traded to the clippers. Espns second round coverage is garbage.

Isn't it usually a cheaper one though?

Did we with out Monte Morris?

I'm actually pretty surprised we picked someone. I thought there was a good chance we'd trade 21 to unload some of these trash contracts. We did take an inordinately long time to announce our pick (even for it to leak). Makes me wonder what sort of trade offers they were fielding.

Summer league will be interesting. First look at Ferguson against his peers.

If we'd taken Philly's 2 early 2nds we could have had semi and Evans. I would've considered that a better draft.

From what little I've seen of Ferguson I get the feeling he might not be very impressive in that environment outside of maybe an open dunk or two.

Even one of those two would have been great. I just don't understand it.

Mostly his 3 point shooting and how well he guards stronger players will be the things to watch.

Oladipo's extension killed our offseason. So many teams trying to trade for tanking or improving and we can't take advantage of this

I mean if we'd traded 21 for those two.
