    If the goal is future draft pick, why hurry now?

    Because I don't believe anyone will actually give up anything of value for Gordon and I don't want to be stuck with him yet again.

    If I sat down 24 hours ago and tried to write out my dream draft, it wouldn't have gone this well. Jabari wasn't even a possibility in my mind. Eason was always the guy I wanted at 17 and I didn't even think TyTy would be there at 26, much less than 29. Say what you will about Stone, but he's got unbelievable value at back-to-back drafts. And through two drafts, he's created a core of seven young players who could be the foundation for this franchise moving forward. I'm pumped for Summer League!

    Jrue is a good defender. Not sure about Tyty

    Tbh I'm not high on Tyty at all but all the mocks had him in the teens/early 20s so at 29 he is a massive steal. Would rsther have Jaden Hardy though tbh.

    Paolo learned 30 seconds before the pick that he was going to be the pick.

    I wonder what made Orlando change their mind about Jabari.

    5 minutes before, my agent said ‘Be ready for anything.’ 20-30 seconds before the commissioner announced the pick, he said ‘Congratulations.’ — Paolo

    I agree. Tyty probably would have gone in the lottery had he not gotten hurt.
