They probably see such a gapping hole that they feel you do whatever it takes to fill it. They don't know all the details so it's whatever. Yeah. I just think that's where teams get in trouble. Just stick to your board and draft the guys you feel best about. Fill holes later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJZFL 618 Report post Posted June 25, 2018 1 hour ago, HeHateMe said: That CBS grade could be the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen. They’re knocking us because we didn’t draft a player that was drafted before we picked? Crazy someone gets paid pretty good money to write that. No, they’re knocking us because selecting scorers seemed to be low priority for the umpteenth draft in a row, and it’s an area we’re terrible at. They’re not focusing on a particular player. I think their criticism is mostly on target. All we seem to draft is lengthy players with underdeveloped offense. Jackson probably has the best shot of the bunch but as noted has many other weaknesses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would they be satisfied if we drafted Carter instead of Bamba? That’s why it’s dumb to me. We took BPA. Young wasn’t there. Past drafts shouldn’t be a factor when grading this draft. Who was the elite scorer we passed on? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Commentators on our local TV were all surprised we picked a center, since we already have Vuc and Biz. Most people outside of Orlando have no idea what roster holes we have. Having few centers doesnt mean we want to use any of them as core pieces long term. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a surprise Let’s see us actually make some progress after these last six years and I’ll be a lot less critical. You think maybe Pollyanna is more appropriate? Every summer we have these grandiose ideas of how next season will be better but they don’t seem to actually happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not because he’ll be the best player but because of the way he plays. yeah I'm really excited about him. I'd love to see him tighten up his dribble some.
