Or know how to use google.

We get it. It’s your party (the draft) and you’ll cry if you want to.

Did you address where he had him in his top 5 before he got hurt? No? Because you lack the capacity to do so.

And everyone knows that.

Does the NBA draft happen at the start of the year?

Nope.

He has foot issues, so he dropped.

Sorry to break that reality to you.

Now that early season top 5 guy has empty seats in the front row at his pro day.

Well throw some shit out there. Who do you want at 11? You willing to move up? How about down? What kind of ball should we play with our roster? What kind of ball do you think Ryan wants to play? Is Rosas the end all be all or is he all in with Ryan to get him his guys? Are we on the cusp according to them? Or is this a fill it out and see year? Are you all in to win this year? Playoffs or bust? Or are you willing to take a horizontal year to try to jump big next year? Hoppy or Malty? Blonde or brunette? Golf or swimming? Wisconsin Dells or Valley Fair? Thinktank or HHM?

3....2...1...go.

that's a nice regroup and a pretty fun team to watch

I don't think it is that good. They really lack shooting and I don't think that lineup can defend.

I think it’s actually a good defensive lineup. Agree on the shooting woes though.

somuchyummy wrote: ↑Sun Jun 16, 2019 1:19 pm i don't know why you think they'd be average. jrue is a helluva defender and that's easily been the shining light of lonzo's brief career as well. they'd have the makings of perhaps the best backcourt D in the league. zion's a definite plus defender - and that's what they'd be drafting hayes for. average at best?

Nassir Little
North Carolina
Age: 19.3
F

Height: 6-foot-6 | Weight: 224

The former top-five recruit saw his stock drop after an inconsistent freshman season, but he has appeared to have worked his way back into the lottery with a strong pre-draft process, particularly by showing better outside shooting potential.

Little's toughness, athleticism and long-term potential will be attractive to an organization that is attempting to reboot its culture after the dismissal of head coach Tom Thibodeau and the hiring of a new decision-maker in Gersson Rosas.

None of the picks have really changed since last week when they posted it.

They still have the wolves picking Nasir Little at 11.

They are going with 1-11

Zion
Ja
RJ
Culver
Garland
Coby
Hunter
Reddish
Seko
Hayes
Nassir Wolves

I'm coming around to the Nassir Little camp. I wouldn't be upset with this.

College shooting was a weakness, but he actually shot the ball decent as a high school kid. AND, unlike fellow under performing freshman Reddish, Little has a solid rep as a hard worker. I still have concerns about him sharing the ball.

not me. he's highly rated because of high school play and measurables. in college, he didn't do well at all. not sure why high school potential trumps college performance. little seems like a great pick to take a shot at - outside the lottery.
