A high pick, and I think I like it. A clear top three and a couple others on the next tier as I see it.
On edit, a sixth calling my name as well...

Oh wow number 3, nice. I'm gonna need some time to come up with my board though. So if it gets to me quick it might be a minute

I don't think it's a clear top 3, but maybe I'm overlooking something lol. It's weird too since a majority of the best available players are big men, I think there are legitimately only like 3 non-MVP guards that could even be considered as a potential first round pick

This draft board is going to be pretty wild!

If I were trading i'd be looking for a pick in the 13-16 range

I'm digging my spot near the swing. I think landing 2 top twenty or so guys will be big.

WOW, I didn't realize how shallow the pool is in terms of talent there was until taking a look now..it sucks to be honest. Might need to add in another exception or something or there's going to be slim pickings very soon. Definitely think there's an advantage having a late pick though in this one so content with having the 15th pick. I don't know though--not really feeling the selected group of players...probably should have researched more rather than signing up blindly..oops.

It's definitely going to be interesting at #3. I'm basically guaranteed a nice big 2, but my third best player will likely be a lot worse than the teams at the bottom. But again, a lot of it is when people choose to use their exception, and who they choose to use it on. In my head, there are two exceptions which would stand out beyond the rest, both due to their impact but more so their position, as certain positions are WAY shallower than others in this pool

Do you anticipate those two players being drafted top 5?

I have no idea, given the quasi-randomness of people choosing when to use their exception

Well, last pick is interesting certainly.
We'll see how this goes.

Dammit, looking at this again I now have seven picks I see as legit at #4 - four international and three exceptions. The new day did not bring clarity.
This is probably the most conflicted I've ever been about a first round choice.

You can have 11 for 5?
