    Eli Witus is the one making the Draft Picks not Rafael Stone.

    im excited about the future... nothing i said is contrary to that... esp LOVE that we play at both ends of the courts...
    i'm just playing hypotheticals...
    take the players I referenced.... who is worth more than we spent vs who is worth less?
    Could we get a mid round 16thish pick for Sengun - sure, i'd think so... lol
    Can we trade Green for the #2 in an upcoming draft?
    Can we get a #3 Jabari?
    how about a mid round 17thish for Tari?

    just looking at where value was obtained - and where it was lost...
    obviously taking a mediocre mid round pick, deciding to tank and turning it into a lotto pick is creating value...
    and the draft is always gonna be a game of risk vs reward...
    ive just always thought that getting a generational talent like LeBron is a no-brainer - but more often you get Kwame'd...
    so like driving that new car off the lot and the subsequent depreciation...
    most high draft picks are worth more than the player that ultimately gets drafted.

    How could he have been a hedge for Green if we acquired KPJ before drafting Green?

    Lol. People coming in here making up names just to NOT give Rafael Stone his due. Is the hatred basketball related or something deeper?

    At this point I don’t want Stone making anymore roster moves. He needs to be fired before he ***** away all of our assets. We need a veteran GM that has contacts around the league. This must happen before the draft, if not this organization might be ****ed for the next decade or so.

    You know you have an amateur GM when he forgets he can use 10 day contracts and 2 way deals to find a backup big or a shooter. It’s so many decent bigs and wings in the g league and overseas salivating at the opportunity to prove they belong in the league.

    Cant decide if Jalen's or Stone's stock is dropping faster right now.

    We are stuck with Stone until Patrick is ready, no GM will come here with Patrick as his understudy.

    I can't wait for somebody to talk about how we're in Phase 2 on the guaranteed and linear path to contention.
