I STRONGLY considered waiting to take KG- I thought I could sell a young KG with Jokic.

But it felt like a risky path and there just weren't any second rounders I loved enough at that spot to justify NOT taking the 98-99 MVP to fill that category. Jokic/Malone feels pretty brutal to guard and Battier/Bridges gives me reasonable counters to some of the elite perimeter combinations that have materialized in this draft.

Yeah his Knick eligibility misses the time frame by one year.

And he's been out in 99'

I may or may not have clicked on Othella Harrington because I thought well maybe Al Harrington changed his name to Othella for a stint ala Ron Artest, but alas there was a guy playing good minutes for the Knicks in the early 2000s named Othella Harrington. Started 64 games for them in 2003. Started all 82 games for Vancouver in 2000 as well. Wild stuff.

This comment makes me feel old.

I remember Othella but his basketball existence was forgettable. Not bad by any means- just forgettable. The epitome of average.

There is a pairing I soooo badly want to take with my final two picks. New York and Brooklyn. It's almost too perfect.

Ok

I did assume it would span Pop’s coaching career though.

When I drafted KAT I thought he was only 14.5 FGA (too lazy to double check) him at 16.9 is making my bench harder to deal with....

Doubt Wack was going for Brunson and Ness literally can’t, but I didn’t feel like making a decision on my 8th man yet.
