I know nothing about this guy. Wait we got Beal? I'm still happy.

Typical Grunfeld pick. A nobody that was slated to either go late in the second round or undrafted, and he gets taken early in the second round in a deep draft.

Jeezus H. While teams like the OKC Thunder are getting better late in the draft, we're stashing losers that won't ever make it to the NBA. This is the most pathetic FO in the league.

I would really love to look Ernie in the face right now, call him a cuss word, and tell him he's fired.

I hope this guy is something decent eventually so he'll have some value. But seriously, what a disappointment with some of the guys left on the board (Crowder, Miller, Barton)

This feels like Jan Vesely all over again. A shooting guard who according to his stats can't shoot.

6-8 200lbs. Future SF? I don't know.

Can't wait to hear Ernie and Ted's spin on this. This team has two G's and two non-shooting SF's and zero stretch-fours.

You know it's going to be some fantastic spin.

Watching Ernie give a press conference is like watching Jordan against the Cavs -- a true master at his craft.

Unfortunately, his best craft is PR and not GM'ing.

I've already forgotten that we drafted the guy. Someone can remind me when/if he is brought over.

6'8" PG/SG combo who can't guard other PGs, can't create his own shot or shoot very well at all, too light and not enough length for the SF position.

The potential must be hiding in there somewhere. Hiding really well. I'm glad we have a great GM like Ernie Grunfeld who is so good he sees the potential where others can't.

Well, apparently they want to keep a roster spot open for a vet (*yawn*). If that's the case, sell the pick, keep the spin, and STFU.

I would wager that we tried to sell the pick, but couldn't because so-many good guys fell.

Some of the reactions around here are embarrassing. it's a draft and stash and some of you probably didn't even watch the 2 minutes of Youtube highlights.

There's plenty of opportunities to bag on Grunfeld, but bagging on him 2 minutes after a 2nd round draft and stash is just silly.

Particularly because none of these whiners would know Thomas Satoransky if he sat on their face. I mean, if you want to be upset that we didn't take your favorite guy, sure. But how can you rip this guy when you clearly don't know the first thing about him?
