Dont know much about this guy. Hopefully he was the guy we wanted all along, but who knows.


This is our new reality...one thing after the next.


Honestly I am liking this pick. His ability to create his own shot is a necessity. I aint calling the dude by his name yet until he gets us some W’s. I haze the f out of rookies now.

He wasn't supposed to be at 20. So yeah the guys they realistically could've wanted went right before their pick. But presumably a guy they like who they never thought they'd be able to draft fell to them.

This dude is either gonna be another Caron Butler or anothet Winslow. Let’s hope the former.

Yup, all you can do is hope for the best. We all know this team is in big trouble so give him time to develop.

I dont know if I like the not expected to be there, didnt work out with the team, Celtics wanted to trade up for him.

Because that same sentence describes the worst pick we had in a while, Justise. I want us to work out the guy we are drafting round 1.

He will end up as a top 3 prick from this draft when they look back on it.

The story of Winslow is a tale of a dude broken by Spo. 6’6 on a 215 frame (soaking wet) playing center and PF. Ruined his career with injuries and he lost his time on development.

At the very least, we have a bunch of young guys that we have drafted and developed. Let's hope they all pan out. There is a foundation here: Jovic, Ware, Jaquez, KJ, Pelle, etc. We don't have THE guy as Bam and Herro are better #2-3 guys that complement the #1 guy, but there is something here hopefully.
