If this is the case, I want nothing to do with Doncic. I was already on the fence on him. If getting Doncic means that Ressler is the final say on decisions, and he never truly reneged on the comments during the Milsap situation, then hearing "the Hawks select with the 3rd pick Luka Doncic" will signify our ownership is still imcompetent, meddling, and dysfunctional...let the GM do his job!!!

What I heard/read yesterday was that JJJ was the favorite coming in, after the individual workouts - that changed.

do you have a link or article that says that? It would help calm my nerves lol

At this time of year, you can't really believe any of the rumors that are out there.

I do remember seeing somewhere that JJJ didn't impress in workouts.

I wish I did but I've been reading/listening to so much junk over the last few days, I don't remember lol.

Givony from Draft Express just tweeted...Common thread we're seeing between teams picking in the top five, and an underrated one looking to project what happens tonight, is the push and pull between front offices and ownership. While GMs may have preferences, the final decision often rests with those cutting the checks.

I hope he isnt talking about the Hawks.
