These young mens lives are gonna change so much after tonight. Even the women who interview them are gonna be gorgeous. Being poor I never had an interviewer who looked like this. My interviewer looked like he coulda been the "61st" pick in the NBA draft.

I bet he's thinking. I like the Lakers.

Maybe if the third pick and Ball is available, we can request more for Detroit, sell Ball as a franchise savior

I've had to deal with hot reporters, the hotter they are the less I trust them. They will try to flirt all the intel out of you

if I was GM I would pick who ever is left at 3. Then entertain draft offers like this through out the night.

If OO or Hayes is there at 7, then yes I do it.

Okongwu will more than likely be there at 7, unless Boston finds a way to trade up to 6

At some point we would need to stop collecting great role players and get a star though

Damn. I am praying we get Lamelo. Feels like someone is going to trade up to grab him.

if okongwu is gone, then hali or hayes may still be around though.

maybe even deni

Honestly, if the player they wanted was someone we were comfortable potentially getting stuck with, we could pick for them at 3 and then if Okongwu was there at 7 then I would probably do that straight up.

Edit: I guess it depends on how much we wanted whoever fell, but if the top player available at 3 isn't someone we are thrilled about then that could make sense.

With the third pick we draft whoever she is and send her immediately to the "D" League. I volunteer to give her some private workouts.

PS let me get her @ bro

They haven't done forum awards in years, but if they ever do again you are a lock for the "horniest on main" award.

Russillo just said on the Ringer livestream that he heard MJ told Mitch "Hell no, I don't want Ball" Two weeks ago

This feels much more like what I have expected this whole time lmao. Edwards is my #2 and Yek is my #3, so I could be feeling worse right now.

Keep it mind the reality of the situation:

You can't just take player A and trade down for player B. So many things have to fall into place to make that work

Making the trade before that team picks puts you at risk of not getting the guy you targeted

Picking their guy for them puts you at risk of being stuck with the guy you don't want

It's a difficult play that gets even more so the further apart the picks are

I'm likely going to check out of RGM shortly until after the draft.

I like my draft night experience to be fresh and breaking and not have Twitter spoilers etc ruin the experience for me - and every year we ask that people don't post spoilers, yet people post spoilers!!

Happy Draft Night you crazy, crazy Hornut RGM posters!!
