    I absolutely hate it when my team doesn't have a draft pick. :(

    Dave is abandoning us during the dog days of the offseason. Check Twitter for us. Maybe he posted there.

    Agree with the adding rookie scale contracts, but let me push back a little on our late 1st Rd success. BTW, I love Eli and he nailed the Sengun and Eason picks, but in 2021 I really wanted Grimes in late 1st (UofH homer) and we passed on him for 2 guys out of the league now. The very next draft (2022) we had a chance to draft Nikola Jovic (my target with that late pick), but we traded down and took TyTy. So late first round we're 0-3 in the last few years.

    As far as 2027 pick I'm not sure the Nets would be as interested in 2029 or others, but it's worth a try.
