Perfect draft would be walking away with burries and morrez Johnson
Who would you have taken at #17 in our position?

we should prepare to learn Nate Amet
Nate Ament's coming to town ๐ถ ๐ถ ๐ถ
Dont Trade down!!! And if we Trade down w need steinbach๐ช๐ผ
Isiah Joe Philon steinboch and maleek Thomas baba miller in the 2nd
If Chris Anderson falls as far as he did in that mock, you overpay to move up 2 spots to get him.
๐๐๐
Stay at 9
Should've taken Sergio at 30, he's most likely going earlier. Big guard that can dribble, pass, and shoot.
Yes but you ignored the reality of trading gafford and Washington.. Which is what uojiri is gonna do
I saw the Trade Episode and I still think Masai could trade PJ for only #17 and Isiah Joe, maybe DAL can get another shooter besides Burries. On Ebuka I'll say that boy is a speed demon. He's the guard nobody can stop/ no DT can tame, he's like a squid and I love how he set his guys real nice, he has the speed to get inside and make front passes that I think are better for shooters. JJ did a lot that during the 2011 run. And I hope they get a defensive big that shoots the 3's for spacing purpose with that #30 pick ๐ฅ
Passing on Stirtz would be a mistake.
I would have taken karaban instead of peat
I would have took Philon then doubled back and took big at 17
I think people are sleeping on karaban and under valuing mental IQ
