Tough Break There 96 Report post Posted June 23, 2021 1 hour ago, ML6 said: Oladipo Gordon Hezonja Isaac Bamba Tonight’s result What do they all have in common? We did not improve our pre-lottery position once for any of them. These are all the lottery picks we kept for the past decade. We fell for each of them, and in one case stayed the same. Kinda gross man. I just don’t get how the FO keeps successfully selling this as the way to build a team. And the real shame is they’ll do it again next year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay Magic 1,244 Report post Posted June 23, 2021 We all need to chill. 5 and 8 is not the ideal situation but its a damn strong 1 also. We have options in abundance. The front office now has to do their work and make **** happen. For all we know we have stars on the roster already. Its a huge summer all round and i am beyond excited. Get the correct coach next... Chuma is the 1 i am excited about the most believe it or not. These guys have so much much growth to come. We are gonna be excellent very quickly 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Every draft there’s that one spot you need to be in to get the game changers. We again are right outside that spot. We are going to be just like we’ve always been and nothing will change until we trade for a star, finally luck into a spot to draft one or sign one. That’s just how the game is won.

All Eyes On Me 1,210 Report post Posted June 23, 2021 Friendly reminder that the last team to win a title with their own first overall pick during his first stint on the team was Tim Duncan. Before that was Hakeem Olajuwon. It simply doesn’t happen often and isn’t the end-all of team building. When the Cavs won in 2016, Kyrie was in his first stint with the team, but the pick Cleveland used to get him was from a trade with the Clippers. Also, LeBron on that same team was on his second stint with the franchise. Really think about it, in the current generation of superstars how many of them were the first overall pick in their draft class? All NBA 1st team Steph, Luka, Kawhi, Giannis, Jokic All NBA 2nd Team Lillard, Paul, Randle, James, Embiid All NBA 3rd Team Beal, Irving, Butler, George, Gobert Only 2 of the 15 players to make All NBA teams this year were the first overall pick in their draft. LeBron and Kyrie.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
