so how did that work out with Culver? you always agree with everything the organization does.
What's wrong with Culver ?

Nothing. Hes just upset. Lol. Rosas is doing good so far. Theyre not drafting your favorite players. You know that

Devin Booker was far more successful last season when he shared the floor with Ricky Rubio, per CleaningTheGlass.

Booker + Rubio both on: +6.3 net rating (O 117.4, D 111.1)
Booker on, Rubio off: -6.3 net rating (O 111.4, D 117.7)

Rubio and D'Angelo Russell will share the floor


But Ricky compared to who? we need cheap players who play great.
Did D Russell ask for Rubio?

It's a waste really. But who knows. Not like they had any need for all these picks. The international stashes might pick up some international fans at least.
So why did we trade down from 17 if this is what we are doing?

Exactly as you pointed out in an earlier post, you whine a lot.

A lot of them are tonight

Bolmaro is an excellent shooter. But why are we trading down, then trading up 2 picks, for a player we could fallen easily to us?


I’ve read the opposite. He’s not a good shooter, from three or the free throw line.

He’s much more of a slasher/passer. Even playing point overseas.

We can never have too many good ball handler shot creators on the team. I wanted McDaniel or Reed, but Bolmaro doesn't suck in the slightest.

Right take ricky and a future pick for 17. Bolmaro better be damn worth it.

I used to watch Vikings games. I aquired my taste for whine there. This has been a Rick Spielman special type of draft for Rosas.

Our roster badly needs bigs,need two PF's and one that's defensive mind and that can start.I would role with Rubio,Russell,Layman & Towns as the starters and find a starting caliber PF to fill out the rotation while the bench can be lead by Edwards with Reid,Culver & Okogie.

The meltdown here is insane. Good lord some of you people need lives. The chances anyone picked 25 and lower of being an impactful player for us are slim

Man Otoru may not go in the first round, they were talking lottery for him earlier.

Juan Hernangomez maybe gets his longterm starting deal tomorrow.
