The pick sort of makes sense. I’m still gonna wait until after 18 to start watching scouting reports. I’m unconvinced he won’t be traded.

The international talent is too much. How about a guy from Arkansas…hint, hint.

We better trade up for Bouknight. But I'm sure Orlando's gonna take him. Hell of a draft for them.

If you thought Presti wasn't going to reach with his picks, you haven't been paying attention to how he drafts. He basically never takes the consensus BPA.

think that's why it took so much time on the clock. Probably couldn't find a trade

I'm shocked. Presti blew it.

With Suggs falling to five, I’m disappointed but let’s not act like we won’t all be shickled titless if Giddey looks good early.

Orlando having 8 as well makes trade offer for them really hard .

Can't blame Presti for any of the top 5. Time will tell about Giddey.

A reach, yes, but as deep as this draft class is and as many picks as they have they can afford to swing on a player like this. Still not convinced that they didn’t make this pick for someone else though.

Patches Perry · Post #1273 » by **Patches Perry** » Fri Jul 30, 2021 12:52 am

Presti needs to be offering 16 and 18 for 9 right this instant

I'm higher than most here on Giddey but just skeptical about his fit with SGA and also very young so...timeline with SGA gonna be a bigger problem

We didn’t trade SGA . I consider that a win.

Giddey isnt a reach.

MEM was absolutley taking him 10. GSW was interested in him at 7. Numerous websites had him Top-10 on their BB.

The greatest trick the devil every played was convincing casual draft junkies that Bouknight was anything but a poor mans Clarkson. He isnt anything special.

I think timeline is fine.

WestbrookGOATed · Post #1279 » by **WestbrookGOATed** » Fri Jul 30, 2021 12:56 am

Just trade up and take Bouknight man. Make this thing right.

Post #1280 » by **Dadouv47** » Fri Jul 30, 2021 12:56 am

Ok time to move up for Sengun/Bouknight/Moody
