I'm not sure this is the year to have multiple Lottery picks

Predicting the draft is going to hard after the first couple of picks.

Bleachkit captain obvious. Yes the draft is tough to project. It’s not a science.

Must I continue to remind everyone, "Remember who the Hawks drafted @ #19 in the last two drafts?"

Yet, we worry and fret, "We must have high draft picks to survive." Yep. Having those very high picks
can be very good and exciting. As stated here before and so many times, the draft is not an exact science.
No drafted player comes with a guarantee.

If the last two drafts were done over, you can bet your best golf ball that we wouldn't get the players
at #19 because they would be gone, probably both in the top ten.

So, don't sweat it. Hold your head high. We may not get that top draft pick but our GM seems to know
what he's doing and we expect great things from whoever he selects!!

GO HAWKS !!

Thanks Gramps. I feel like I personally need this reminder weekly. To just chill.

When I see a player like DeAndre Hunter projected between 10 ( CBS ) and 17 ( NBA Draft Net ), I conclude this is the perfect time to have multiple lottery picks.

We probably could get him at 19

And that is the beauty of having two lottery picks. The option to trade down and gain a player and pick is only a option, if you have a good pick to trade down with. We also have the option to stand pat if someone who is really coming on is still there.

In other words, it is better to be a have than a have not.

We've hit on our last 2 #19s, might behove us to get another somehow.
