That was Phil's first good move. I had said something a while back about Horace selling Phil on his nephew.

More assists then any other player in the conf last 4 years as per Jason Williams....this may be the non typical pg that runs the triangle....look I love the value Phil got for THJ...but the Porbustus pick is baffling to me...the kid has the right attitude, but I just dont see his 190lb azz being NBA ready for at least 3 years...not what we need right now, I wanted Mudiay/Winslow, hell I wouldve took WCS over Porbustus!

if money wasnt involved, than we can easily get some 2nd rounders.

It's a great trade... the PG's were all pretty close to my eye and that's the position I know the most.
Wright/Jones/Grant were all pretty close to me. Just depends on what you were looking for.
Phil interview coming up...

Perfect for Melo... or maybe not.

You guys won the draft. Added two assets and lost a terrible one.
Phil Jackson deserves GM of the year for getting a 1st out of THJ.

If this was Jacksons plan to swing big at 4 because he knew he could get Grant then hats off.

If Timmy is worth a first, Calderon gotta be worth a 2nd.

Let's buy a second and pick up one more player and/or dump Calderon

I have a terrible feeling in my gut about this draft, I dont feel good about Porzingis or Grant.
