A part of me wants to go 'kids these days' when I see the obnoxious clothing, but then I remember the 90s and 00s draftees looked just as outrageously foolish, both at the time and in retrospect. It's like a hazing ritual and these young men don't even know it.

Lol I consider myself as having transitioned with the styles. I went through all the clothing fads. Now I do wear more fitted clothing, but I have always kept it more conservative other than when I had my red dreadlocks lol

Jaime Jaquez looks like he stepped straight out of the 1970's. I want him on this team now.

When you see those late-night commercials with little kids in rags, it's because the global textile supply has yet to recover from the 2003 draft.

Woj and Givony have us taking Miller. Vegas has us taking Scoot. No one knows.

Feels like 2018 again. Media/professionals saying take Bagley/Miller while the fan community is strongly for Luka/Scoot.

Now im not saying the outcome in player quality is gonna be the same, just interesting to see such contrast.
Your Charlotte Hornets! We’ll eventually get something right;right?

So Spurs have 2 previous number 1 picks and both were hall of famers. Bastards
