I think it was a bad idea to let Polk do that interview. There is zero chance that accurately reflects Cho's mindset, but I agree that if it was a multi-non lotto pick package tossed up when we went on the clock, that is tough to judge the value of, given that you don't know who will still be on the board.

Of the choices id go with Smith.

Reasons
- poor wingspan
- NC state sucked
- probably lower potential than the others

Monk has the UK brand and hype behind him, lauri is a 7 footer who shoots 40+% from 3 and the other two are balls of potential. Doubt they fall to 11.

Yea, not entirely sure what was wrong but had something to do with lightning blowing a cable or something.

Need to catch up on news and stuff, been watching a lot of my old DVD movies the past week. Even purchased a newspaper lol.

i think he just worded it badly as well. We had limited roster space and weren't excited by anyone lower in the draft.
So why trade the player we do want for players we aren't fussed with.
