Indiana determined to lose PG for nothing, and Ainge determined to never make a big move, sounds about right
Yea true, I just thought they would go with a stretch 4 to replace Bosh, somebody like Leaf
But in Pat we trust

Danny is saving all of his assets for LeBron James
Jr.
Justin Jackson's a pretty good shooter but he's a horrible defender and can't create his own shot and rebounds like shit for someone his size and has zero playmaking ability. He's about as one dimensional as you can get. I guess he's got a decent floater on those rare times he's able to drive inside.

Not a bad idea, you have to assume LBJ Sr. will be slowing down by then.

This is why i liked this trade for Sac. They get a guy that can potentially shoot as well as Monk, can play more positions and fits better with their lineup. Not a star but a really solid starter potentially.
the nets trade was a pretty big move no? Also moving down from first?
Either way trading for a 1 year rental isn't a big move in my mind. It's foolish

I think he's going to be a bust but maybe I'll be proven wrong.
Sacramento doing a good job though.

if they can add like TJ Leaf with that 2nd 1st rounder they got from Portland that's a pretty good lineup for them. Lots of shooting. Should make Fox' life easier.
The 3 is the only position he can play.

Kings doing work
Ha! I was thinking that but that's cheating.
I'd like to remind people that Skal was seen as a bust in college, but that's only because Cal wants fo make sure his big men can post up. See KAT who could not do that shit before college and now he's a beast down there.
Skal is good. I'm happy for him
If you can drink legally
You not on my draft board
I'm only slightly joking

At 15 in order to be a bust he'd have to basically not make it in the league. Even if he just becomes a solid pro that's a good pick. You aren't expecting all stars when you are drafting 22 year old college players at 15.

I'm talking about using some of the billion of assets
The Nets trade is just Ainge hoarding assets so he can never use them.
We should def try and shed one of those contracts. Let's see.
As for collins. I think it's because they believe in his upside. I read about him before the draft but never thought we would trade up to get him. Sounds great to be honest. Good defense and offense upside. But yea time will tell.
oh he can sing too lol. Lillard + Collins track gonna be fire!

He's 6'8"with a 6'11" wingspan. He can probably play some 4 in smaller lineups and stretch teams out. He also fits a lot better when a Fox/Hield backcourt in that regard.
Someone who is 6'8" with a nearly 7 foot wingspan is going to have more versatility than a guy like Monk who is 6'3 with a 6'3 wingspan.

I don't know I just think his play won't translate well but we will see.

I kinda like our pick.
I wanted TJ Leaf, but I'll see what Spo and our staff can do with Adebayo.

you're right....fuck Ainge
Fuck no, they got an unathletic scorer. I'm guessing a skinny Big Baby for his ceiling?

I think he'll end up with the Clips if they bring back CP3.
Guessing he is dropping because of medical concerns. Maybe the reports weren't that good?

Those years feel like a blur
I'm the type of person willing to pick Giles just because of what he could be
OG gets a good medical staff, man gon be dunking on heads and shooting treys like no tomorrow

No doubt. I think OG has huge potential. I'm a Blazer fan so injury stuff trigger me haha. But yea taking a chance on someone like Giles or OG is a no brainer at this stage of the draft

Or someone that starts next to Towns if he's good enough.
If you can't find good players to come play with you at college I really doubt your effort level.
