Man, everyone went crazy. I used to matter around these WoSs.

Current state: :meditate:

Prediction: that will change.

I think Onyeka Okongwu has become my binky. Love his defensive versatility. He'd be our very own Bam. He has a foot injury so maybe he falls to 14, but it's only a broken toe and considered minor. If he doesn't fall I'd be happy to trade up for him.

If we're trading up into the top 3 (which I doubt) it better be for Wiseman or another trade. Ball and Edwards both have huge red flags to me as far as maturity and mindset.

I also prefer Lewis over Hayes fwiw. Speed kills.

Might be time to change my profile pic though. Pretty disappointed in Hayward for wanting to leave if we only get back a TPE or freaking Dedmon.

I’m not sure which player or beach (in Spanish) he hates, but playa-hater has been INVESTED in this. Hope they’re happy by tonight’s end.

Looks like I got in about 80 “trade up for OKONGWU!!” posts so my work here is about done, it’s in gods/Danny’s hands now.

If we can't move up lets trade 14 and try to get a 1st round pick from a stupid team next year.
That draft is stacked.

Who cares about the draft any more? None of the guys Ainge picks will be Celtics. They will all be playing elsewhere.

Having said that, I have no problem with moving #30, Poirier and Kanter to the Rockets if George Hill comes back. Hill certainly can't be happy about being traded to the s*itshow in Houston.

Okay, bye bye Gordon. Tired of defending your ass.

I want Wood.

My first wall of shame in a few years I think, staying up late with a baby really padded my totals

Spin Move · Post #14 » by **Spin Move** » Wed Nov 18, 2020 8:05 pm

If we could get
Lewis, Nesmith, and Oturu, I wouldbe super stoked, PG Wing and big all with good upside all could fill smaller roles now.

31to6 · Post #15 » by **31to6** » Wed Nov 18, 2020 8:06 pm

Post yo likes/dislikes

Trade up: like OKONGWU, Hayes, Wiseman
14: like Jalen Smith, Precious, S. Bey, any fallers
26: like Oturu, Nnaji, any fallers (Nesmith? Anthony?)
30: like Maledon, Paul Reed, Azubuike, Riller, Carey, Tillman

Not excited but resigned to: Hampton, Josh Green, Cole

Don’t like: Bolmaro and overdrafting anyone unnecessarily

Congrats on both!

Likes:

trading one of the picks for a future pick.
Hampton
Maledon
Tillman
Anthony
Tyler Bey
Kira Lewis
Josh Green
and do whatever you want at 46 as long as it's a boom or bust type of player; don't give me a senior guard with no projection.
I think they could get three of these players at 14/26/30 if things go right and I'd call that an A+ draft; others would be puking.

Dislikes:

trading up.
any big at 14

Killian Hayes is the best player in the draft for sure. I would trade up if he's there at like 10, only exception to my 'no trading up' desire. But I wouldn't go crazy in giving up a ton of picks to move up, no reason to be that confident in a single player.

So since I went number one does that mean everything I say goes?

Curmudgeon · Post #19 » by **Curmudgeon** » Wed Nov 18, 2020 9:08 pm

Okongwu? Isaiah Stewart destroyed him when Washington played USC. I posted some film of this earlier.
