    Stone Cold Killer.

    Stunned us all.


    Seriously, would rather have had about five other people at 24, but everything else is so great, I'll let it slide.

    Sucks because Morey never had a shot at rebuilding a team with lotto picks

    Got a franchise player with the #2 pick so it’s an A++++ in my book.

    A+. I can dig the Christopher pick as our future 6th man.

    Legitimately, this feels like a franchise-changing draft. The type you look back on and think, “How the hell did that happen?”

    Easy A

    Would have been an A+ if I liked the last pick. All in all I'm beyond thrilled with all of the talent we managed to add. Green should be a star, and Sengun has the potential to be an impact scorer as well. Garuba could be a defensive stud.

    Stone swung for the fences on all his picks except for Usman...who will he in the league for a long time with his motor.
    Grade: A

    Stone trading up in a draft to pick a potential sleeper is already better than paying for a 2nd round pick

    I hope all Stone's picks come through so I can laugh at morey.

    since I dont hate players anymore, I just want to stick it to morey.
