Not a bad pick.... & the way this has unrolled, there should be some good talent at #22 as well. Pretty sure Cooper will be there.

I'm still looking for us to buy into R2....

I don't think seniors are safe picks btw, Not good at all, but whatever, hope he makes me look like an idiot, wouldn't be the first, but I thought he got found out in the final, and also just, you should be drafting 18/19 year olds, not 22 year olds. Not a fan in the least. Not at all.

Kispert interesting pick. Two years ago the Wiz were 3rd in passes per game and last year they were 27th. Hopefully the ball movement returns and Bertans bounces back and Kispert benefits.

Oh God guys Damn I really alive … Is this **** for real?

They’re not trading away the pic that could be Steph Curry. They didn’t give away a second round pick for nothing. They actually acquired an extra first round pick.

My guess is we go with Butler at 22, but there are so many ways it could go.

Rockets -- Sengun. Might as well - you have 4 picks.

I have been a wizards fan since 1973 and by my math that is 48 years.

This just might be their best draft overall.I’m sure I’m forgetting something but this is unreal

Ed Wood wrote:Really the only nit I can pick with Kispert is that he's not a very big swing of a pick and a pessimist (or realist) might reasonably feel that the Wizards should still be swinging pretty hard given what we're working with. That said, he's very good at like the most important thing that the Wizards are bizarrely bad at and there's almost no chance that he's not a solid NBA contributor. Hard to be upset even from a value standpoint.


And it makes Bertans even more expendable, as we add a different sweet shooting white guy who doesn't defend and is probably a risk to get fat. :clown:

He does play with an attitude... Kispert that is. :wink:

And what is so beautiful is he came in under Hachimura.

You’ve got cohesion and accountability and I don’t care if they’re not the best of friends they know each other well. And they’re going to represent their school well

Sengun has a looong neck. 6'10", but will play like he's 6'8". Does he have the wingspan to make up for that mekaneck?

With Kispert what you see is what you get. Probably the biggest sure thing in the draft.
