    Because they're worse than the rookies we saw Jalen, Sengun and Tate playing with.

    Thank God Morey brought in those great young players like Sengun, Tate, and Green. Stone doesn't know what the hell he's doing!!!! :mad:

    Yeah Stone draft them but he won’t play them.

    This team building around veterans like Wood and Gordon, not Green and Sengun.

    Think about though, it very rare that undrafted or late draft guys become stars, super rare in fact. so we are betting the farm on two guys kpj and wood that most gms didnt think were gonna be stars someday. Wood is our default star for some reason eventhough he's not a star. kpj is our default point guard no matter how he plays even though he isnt a true point guard. why? who is deciding these things?

    KPJ was only a late first due to character issues. He would have gone in the lottery based on talent.

    Also, I don't like KPJ, I see too much Harden in him (with somehow even worse character issues), but he has balled out quite a lot. He could be a star. You're just hating.

    Wood on the other hand; I don't know why they didn't trade him.

    That cant be the only reason because he doesnt play like an early round pick and those character flaws are shown to be true.

    If Tate could shoot the 3 he'd be on track to an All Star appearance.

    I’m surprised I haven’t seen all the “Cade and Mobley won a championship and Jalen got knocked out in the first round” talk lmao.

    KPJ is a hot head but he is immensely talented, does need to cool down.

    Wood makes no sense whatsoever on a rebuilding team like Ego.

    I do not appreciate Wood's game all that much.
