    I got Morey's speech ready. "We had a couple of opportunities to move up but players other teams liked fell to them. We were so close. In the end we stayed true to our process and got two players in the second round that we had top 20 on our big board"

    Malik Beasley is still on the board, if he falls he is definitely someone that I would be interested in.

    So by "moving in the first round", Morey probably meant pick #28-30.

    Watching the draft when your team has no pick is boring

    Nugs have hit a home run in this draft. Definitely got better.

    20 years from now they will look at the Draft celebrations & 95% of the players are dabbing.

    Beasley is like 6'3. He could be another Jamal Crawford / Lou Williams.
