Gotta say, #6 was super unexpected

I honestly didn’t see that coming either lol

SJax was fourth on our big board

no way.... maybe...maybe 5, but not 4. Billups notes r way better.

I wanted to ask what OO could have possibly meant in his SJax notes, but I didn't want to tip my hand at who I wanted as I was trying to trade up.

But as I said earlier, I'm not really taking the notes into consideration outside of a few things I try to look for.

To each his own, but I honestly think you could’ve gotten SJax at 15

I was hoping to get SJax at 13, dang lol

Guess I was wrong

I think Stak ‘s case for 6 can also be that he likely has good tendencies to be a lead scorer compared to some of the guys that are still up there.

Unfortunately, our scouting department will be keeping our thought process close to the chest.

If SJax gets the jump with defense at SG, I think it’s a solid pick.


I think next pick can be anyone in the top 15… I had SJax in top ten so not a far reach

Yeah with the parity of this draft there isn’t any reach that’s immensely far, its all in the eyes of the beholder.

Alright I’m done messaging teams about deals. I hate when people don’t respond.

I probably messaged everyone and heard back from maybe half of them. No thanks goes a long way

Reason when I rebuild even if team never gave a yes but responded I usually do deal. Michael Cage to Jazz I think was a deal I made just because he actually responded.

If we get lucky, Jax could be the fourth best player in the class. If we get unlucky, he could be nothing. I'm in position to just take the player with the highest upside and hope for the best. If he busts, I don't have a contender anyway. If he hits, we go from a 0% chance at ever winning with my core to maybe a 1% chance. Lol

IMO he was like our one chance at maybe adding a third cool young player, so I was willing to take the risk of trading up to get him. There was no one else outside of the top 3 who interested me in the position my team is in. If I was within reach of competing, there would maybe be some other guys I would consider. But for us, it makes sense in my opinion.

Literally the thing I hate the most.
