Pacers could have been threatening trade with another team who wants Koulibaly

Pacers knew the Zards wanted Bilal so they made us pay.

Good chance that OKC knew who the Wiz wanted, and vice versa.

After getting the pick courtesy of a ----ing coin flip, that's how screwed our luck is as a franchise, we can't even win coin flips. Yeesh.

Now what are the 2nd rounders?

Are these teams just hazing the new gm or something? What is going on

I hate Stephen A Smith and this terrible ABC draft coverage.

Woj said two future seconds so I assume not the 2023 draft.

I don't care for milika Andrews but she's much better than what they got on the ABC feed and JJ and Jay bills are great!

We didn't really pay much a couple seconds and honestly we got the right kid I think.

Because they saw Bilal as a higher upside, or so I presume. Sufficiently that they would have been happy to have him. & could extract a R2 pick for winding up w/ Walker instead.

Anybody want to try to lighten up? Just a bit...?

Raptors might have also been willing to trade up.
