    i was intrigued with williams (and couldn't believe he fell that far), but tbh, he doesn't fit what luke's trying to do, imo.

    i'm not going to overreact given our scouting team's history. plus, it's not like wagner sucked in college. he was the best player on a big-time winning team.

    yeah, he's not quite as big as brook, but same kind of game. maybe better on the boards, not as much of a bear in the post.

    I’ll take my chances with Thomas Bryant over Williams.

    How in the world does Ainge get the reputation as a great GM?! Billups just said everyone should be afraid with Ainge picking... what?!

    He was going to be fired until McHale gifted KG to the C Bags.

    Give me a break!!!

    There are still some really good names for guards in the pool.

    Melton, Evans, Brunson, Trent, Brunson, and Thomas all pop immediately.

    Evans goes to the Warriors. Great pick for them.

    There's so much value late here in the draft.

    Please tell me that is not real time? Or better yet, tell me that is real time because I need a nice laugh after this 25th pick.

    Mo Wagner seems like the type of international prospect that fits the mold of a Spurs player. Just saying...

    Diop at 39 would be a steal too.
