Really think there's so crazy value in that second round.

Masai’s bedtime is 10pm. Asleep at the wheel as usual.

He basically does 3 or 4 things really well that no one on our team does. I hope he gets minutes from the get go. He's going to make players better around him. Not allowing teams to leave Barnes open on the line next year should really help us.


yup, i'm very surprised he fell to us. #13 has a good track record of good players being taken and I feel that Dick is another one.

Has Masai or Bobby ever made a draft day trade? Have they ever actually done more than just talk about acquiring an additional pick?


Yeah I know...hoping for a 2nd pick is the only thing saving me from not being completely bummed of how absolutely sh*t this entire year has turned out.

He has legitimate mid 40's %ages upside.


As long as he doesn't have percentile dysfunction, we'll be ok.

Suggs is trash, honestly.

The last time a draft day trade was made...was the Grievis Vasquez for the picks that became Norm and OG.

Houston swings for whitmore, that's smart in their position.

I feel like Houston has about 8 players in roughly the same mold as Whitmore. Great value pick, but not sure how they make it work on the court.

Still somewhat surprised Leonard Miller is still available. He was a very productive player as a young guy in the G-League. I guess the NBA knew what they were doing when he didn't get a green room invite. Maybe he'll go at 23 to Portland?

Love the Dick pick. Highly doubt the front office does anything else tonight. We're clearly running it back to make a run at the play-in. One of the most boring front offices in pro sports
