2013 - Olynyk
2015 - Rozier
2018 - Timelord
2019 - Romeo, Grant
2020 - Pritchard, Nesmith

Ainge is 7/11 since 2013? Though RoRo and NeeNee still TBD.


People need to look at it through this point of view more. Ainge drafted well. It’s obviously disappointing he never got the Giannis/Jimmy/Kawhi outside the lottery but he drafted extremely well there.

I wish one of those teams was not the Boston Celtics, but hey, we got Al back as part of the deal.

a friendly reminder that this guy is probably gonna be there at 53 and is a top 20 player on my big board.

7'3" wingspan. started and put up good numbers for a playoff team in france's top league, shot 37% from 3, including 41% from 3 over his last 8 games (including playoffs). Most athletic player in europe.

Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Photo of big board or I call BS. If that board is any less than 18 feet wide I also call BS.

PS A photo of Big Bird will do.

excellent value pick. 19th player on my big board, picked at 41.

dyson daniels and EJ liddell. 2 really good players who play hard and they can both defend. both really tough, hard nosed dudes. i like what the pelicans are doing.

EJ Liddel is a better version of Grant Williams?

The bright side of Stevens not making any deals is he didn't get fleeced on any deal.

I'd love Kendall Brown to fall to us, underperformed at Baylor but young with raw ability.

So many people are comp'ing guys to Grant but it'a hard to do that. Grant is undersized, he's slow, he's not athletic. But he is a good NBA player because he is one of the hardest work ethic in the league, one of the strongest players in the league, one of the toughest (both physically and mentally) players in the league, extremely high basketball IQ. extremely switchable defender, smart defender, plays really hard. high character guy. great locker room guy.

bottom line, he has so many intangibles. that are hard to project other players to have.

but Liddell can be kind of similar to grant, yeah.

i compare liddell moreso to Millsap and Boris Diaw..

Minuses: didn’t spend some dough to get a cool sounding pick
Pluses: didn’t get boxed out of the much better deals that could only happen later.
