This was my opinion before the draft, but we will have to wait and see......

Don't forget Sekou Doumbouya..... Detroit has just really started to play him and he is playing very well. In my opinion, he is one of the players that easily could be the best player from this class.

He was the player I thought we would for sure want with the idiot's mandate. Still shocked we didn't take him. Forgot size makes you bad. But Clarke was still my first choice. Would have been great to watch him dunk in warmups and then sit next to Bell.

Thrillkill, you would’ve made this same mistake:Thrillkill wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15, 2020 3:53 pmNo it certainly was not. We had one star and he played the same position. No matter how much ever name lover wanted the guy they saw in an ESPN highlight once he was a brutal fit and I told you all from minute one it was coming. He was not a 3. Never going to be a 3. And Adelman was so pissed about it he just let him go off on his own to fail. It was among the worst Wolves picks ever and that's saying something. Pretty damn sure that Cle had another deal in place where they got another pick to have like 4 and 8 to trade us and we balked. And at that time the obvious move was to trade the pick for a vet.Mplsfonz wrote: ↑Wed Jan 15, 2020 2:18 pmDW was the right pick in that crapshoot of a draft, so IMO that is a bad example. Or the draft would have went,
Irving?
Klay
Leonard
Butler
And Kemba Walker
We just seem to always have uneducated buffoons in the FO when gems like those guys slip as far as they did.
We need to stop looking at who's "worthy" of the draft pick number, and get the guy we like the best. DW was a beast at AZ, and no reason to think he wouldn't be at the next level.
Perfect example! Perfect example of the one note shortcut to thinking that BPA is.

No trades would be announced (only 2% had it AND it was a 100% proposition) and 2. Bol Bol would be the last player picked out of the players they gave and they gave several second rounders. Keep your eyes out Froobs for next year it is easy money once news start to drop. 9 players got it AND I accounted for 5 of them.

Re: How bad was this draft
well. nice. but any ref worth his stripes would have ended his fun with the ball there right after his rebound when he carries the ball about 7 feet over his shoulder on the second dribble. kind of funny.
There is little difference between the memory of a real event and the memory of a dream.

Little kneejerk, Joe. Calm down and let Super Bol get acclimated.

I'm on the bandwagon, but I don't think TT needs the help to look like a clown.HeHateMe wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2020 10:00 amI won't calm down. I'm rooting for him hard!!!!!!
Top prospect coming out of HS and did well at Oregon before getting hurt.. his success = TT looking like a clown so I'm all for it.

Re: How bad was this draft
Same cool player with the same questions. He;s a stat machine because he has such crazy length. Can get blocks and steals never moving his feet. But also has trouble moving his feet when guys drive at him. And speaking of feet. Super tall with any lower leg injury seems to keep happening. Also gets really shot happy sometimes but is a legit shooter and driver.
If he can get stronger and stay healthy he's gonns be a great bench guy for many years.

Looks like a more dominant Kevin Garnett.
