    Hawks not playing kids because they need win now players.

    Hawks not playing their draft pick this season either.

    Can we at least admit that @jiggyfly was totally right in saying the closer we get to the draft the more "experts" and consensus start putting Paolo at #1? I seem to remember you asking if Paolo was that good why wasn't anyone mocking him at #1, there you go .

    Us Paolo truthers who said from the start that he was underrated are now being vindicated as he is becoming more accurately rated.

    I still want to say I’m ok with taking any of the 3, but Chet not releasing medical reports and heart testing to nba teams is scaring the hell out of me. It’s not like there hasn’t been smoke before…

    I can admit that they've ramped up the amount of bullshit being dumped on us leading up to final hours of the draft.

    Same propoganda BS by players, their agents, NBA teams and media we see every draft.

    Everyone has an angle.

    Just like last year when it was reports pistons may not take Cade. Top 5 teams probably already know who they will pick.

    You guys are lucky. If i were the GM, those two 2023 picks right now would be up for grabs. If you're a top 10 team, you can have both. Forget about a dam Wembayama. This is the time to set the team up for the next decade. Time to put in all of the surrounding players needed.

    Don’t want Chet, but afraid that’s who we are going to end up with. I’m just not sold on the guy at all as a super high draft pick. He seems so much riskier than any of the other top 5 or 6 candidates.

    Good thing you're not a GM, you will be blackballed out the NBA for destroying our future.

    How would I destroy the future of the team by bowing out of one draft. I thought Green was our future. IMO, the whole draft last season was our future. We should only be focused on complimenting them.
