    I'm a little meh on it. Would rather have had KPJ insurance in a PG, but it is what it is. Not a bad idea to take a G leaguer since we'll have tons of rookies.

    He can play, but this was a bit of a reach. Don’t love it, but he’s not a bad player at all.

    He is a SG who can score. A bit redundant with Jalen Green.

    Pick stinks

    I got two of my hopefuls in Jalen Green and Garuba

    I don't care for Segun and Josh Christopher

    Nets are probably going to get my guy C Bassey at #27

    Josh and Jalen are the 3 second offense. 1-2 dribbles and brute explosiveness.

    Definitely KPJ insurance.

    Bit of a reach, but not a huge one. Kid is crazy athletic.

    He is a good player, Springer would have been better.

    Love the first 3 picks, not crazy about this one.

    The fact that there may be some shenanigannery in relation to why we selected him concerns me as well.

    Rockets should have taken Grimes. He was there for the taking.


    I saw the highlights for Christopher, and they are impressive, but Grimes getting picked by Houston would have been storybook cool!

    I want to know if he has three "first" names. Josh and Christopher are first names. What is his middle name? Is he part of team 3FN? I must know.
