Wow Terry Rozier at #16!? He was my favorite prospect for possible 2nd round picks.

Kristaps is more of a New NBA player than triangle though.


Bro... he's going to get pushed around early. Look for him to play 15-20 minutes max.


Of course he'll get pushed around early. I also think he'll mostly be guarding 3s and stretch 4s until he fills out a bit.

My comment was more geared toward the continued jabber about Phil not understanding the value of the 3 ball. This guy is the definition of a stretch big.

I'm so disappointed that we didn't get Mudiay. I think he'll be a franchise player

Tyson Chandler had a terrible, injury-plagued season the year before. Had a huge contract that few teams were able to absorb at the time, and was going to be an expiring. How much value do people on this board think Tyson really had?

I feel for Ainge that he wasn't able to get that "movement" he was predicting.

Not.

we didnt just get a bad return, we got a negative return. 2 bad players and a bad contract.

if phil waited, we would have gotten atleast 2 firsts

He sounds like a bitch right there lol...

But it's ironic how we had 2,000 pages worth of prospect talk for much of the season and ended up with not a single one we discussed lol

If we didn't have Melo and had our draft picks the next few years it's a good pick, but we are in compete now mode with no future draft picks

I see porz as an above avg role player at best, we need stars


Can't get stars with no bench, incompetent front office, a mortgaged off future and past for a sulking Star Player in his 30's!


And who after the top 3 were taken didn't have holes? Mudiay can't shoot. Winslow has no position. WCS has a loose screw in his foot. Kaminsky has no position. You want the other European? You're bashing the guy saying he has holes. but who is the perfect pick then?


If you read my post correctly, i never bashed him, i said we can't get and star players here because we don't have assets to trade! Other FA wont come because of our Front Office is like a circus!
