Magic needs future picks to make our team better I'm just saying you're taking the contrarian point of view always and the OKC pick is such a trivial asset it seems like you're just *****ing with everyone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any more than that from a draft asset perspective and we're putting too many eggs in one basket Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A really good starter who can run your offense as a really tall player which let's you run funky lineups. There's not a version of him that's like Mario. He's already shown he belongs playing against Spain and France last summer. He's probably not going to be a future MVP candidate but he's the safest pick in the draft.
