S/o Bobby saying he doesnt see a difference between 1st rounders and 2nd rounders.

Doesn't it seem like Charlotte always has a lot of picks and like one guy does okay, but not great?

Why does it matter when we are just going to resign all our players. No room for draft picks!

Tell that to Denver

I respect many of your opinions about prospects, but not this one. Can never just look at one example and run your team based on that. If we just look at one example, why keep any draft pick, I mean there are all stars and hall of famers that were undrafted free agents.

Boston is definitely trading for someone in the offseason with all these 2nds they are collecting

Fanbase is conditioned to get overhyped on any international prospects. Bonus points if they can't shoot the ball.

So there are multiple examples in history of 2nd rounders becoming productive players. They don’t need to be a star like a Jokic, Gasol, or a Draymond.

They can become role players and that’s not valueless

Jalen Brunson says hello. He was a 2nd round pick too.
