    I hope you're right. I'm hoping in 2-3 years, we'll be out of the lottery.

    Whoever we pick I just hope fans realize this isn't going to be a 1year rebuild, we'll need a lot more lottery picks to go provided they pan out.

    Clutchfans will be ready to cut the players immediately lol.

    Some individuals wanted to get rid of Harden but don't have the stomach to go through a rebuild.

    not gonna lie, if we had not kept this pick, I wouldn’t have stepped 1 foot inside TC next season…matter of fact, I wouldn’t even want to be within a 5 mile radius of the arena

    it would be a lot different around here if the pick was 18.

    I for one would have had zero interest discussing the 18th pick and 2 picks in the twenties or what decent pick we might be able to move up to by packaging those picks in a trade…I hardly ever talk about our 2 other picks in this draft because I really only care about who we’re drafting 2nd overall…if we get some good contributors with the 23rd and 24th pick, cool, but those picks are never on my mind

    nah, not me. Ida cried and bawled then began to believe the tears were for joy as TheGoodGuys balled.

    Then Ida started looking at ‘22s Top Pix…

    The pick clearly seems to be Green or Cade (if he randomly falls to 2).

    The pick is out of our control.

    I feel the need to bump this because people are still mindlessly fighting over something they have no say in.

    Your points have been made. You can show receipts if you're right later.

    Who didn't love Lanier's left-handed baby hook?
