With the 30th pick coming up just want to say how much I will not miss David Stern. As long as I am a Bobcat fan I will be bitter about the NO Hornets receiving the first pick in the Anthony Davis draft when they were being sold to a new owner by the league. I'm happy to see Stern go.

Glen Rice Jr. Worth it.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

OT: gonna be a lot of pressure on Kidd next year, you will be expected to win now.

Will be interesting to see how those players mix, I'm not convinced it will work.
