A bunch of teams with a lot of picks tonight. Could be an opportunity to sneak in there somewhere, even if it's just trying to buy another 2nd round pick.

Nah im always geeked for the draft, if nothing else for my Dynasty Fantasy Basketball drafts. I drafted Giannis with the last pick his rookie year.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the draft. But as Bucks fans, we’re gonna be doing a lot of watching other fan bases get giddy with their shiny new toys.

What happens with the money when you buy a draft pick? Is it just cash from one owner's pockets to the other or are there other ramifications?

Yep, cash from one owner to the other. Only ramification is there's a limit to how much money a team can send as cash during one season.

Kudos to the Bucks fans that kept this thread going this whole time. 1 pick that happens to be the Mr. Irrelevant and all the draft ppl still came out to share so much information and talk about what the Bucks could do and the draft overall.. it’s so awesome!

Seth Lundy at 58 for the win! If that happens (it won’t), I’ll be fine if that’s all we do tonight.. that’s all I can say at this point lol.
RIP Kobe Forever. GOAT 8-24. Long Live Giannis

Most fun parts of the draft for me:

a) seeing how long before all the mock drafts are wrong
b) trades

If it Wemby, Scoot, Miller and Amen Thompson aren't the top 4 it would be a surprise right?

Outside of Wemby and Scoot, I have no **** idea who any of these non-college players are.

Yeah I wish they would do two different broadcasts, one for stat geeks and another on the hallmark channel for those that want to cry with the players families or whatever
