There's got to be more to this. No way is Reggie Jackson worth 3 2nds. It's the other way around. Denver should be paying Charlotte.

Screw it. I've always loved Bridges, and he might just be there (even though we have a lot of wings).

Interesting combo for the spurs...they just took 2 wings in the 2nd round. Both can shoot..1 really skinny guy with good quickness/athleticism (Furphy) more of a 3..and the other more strong/bulky, not as quick/athletic, more of a 4 (Ingram)
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

IND is going to screw us and take Freeman, Chomche and Bridges with their 2 picks somehow.

If Svi Mykhailiuk wasn’t a free agent, Stevens could have traded him for 5 second round picks

Same. I would have been happy with him at 30. Though, I like Baylor as well.

If some random GM can trade Bridges to the Knicks for 5 first round picks, imagine the haul Stevens could get out of New York for Bridges 2.0 :lol:

Newton gone. Only 4 more ahead of us. I'm starting to hope for Flowers. I did not expect him to be this far down the board.

I thought Freeman would go higher. Anton Watson or Freeman, while they may not be the best players, are probably the best fits for the Celtics of all the remaining players.

Furphy is going to Indiana. Spurs took Nunez instead. They swapped 35 and 36.

I thought Christie would have been a good pick for Indy. Surprised they went Nunez and follow it up with Newton.

FReeman is the best available player, imo

I low key think all the rumors about FReeman possibly going 1st round was his agent trying to get the celtics to take him at 30.

But then when the Celtics took Scheierman, now his agent is trying to get him to the Celtics at 54..

Again, Freeman worked out for the Celtics this season AND last year..
