Exactly. And we save a bunch of $ by drafting a guy in the 2nd round instead of the 1st. And we get a couple of future 2nd rounders.

Brad is a shark.

Honestly, if a guy is 6’8” and “**** blocking” is a primary strength I’d be concerned. Sounds like an Oompa Loompa center I don’t want lol


Brandon Clarke.

Exactly. That's why I was surprised that we went for #25.
Brad's thinking in 4-D.

His shot isn't broken... it's mangled with a side order of mutilation.

If any of ya'll are freaking out about Brogdon staying healthy and think we should grab a guard, you should want us to take Amari Bailey. He's good, solid combo-guard who can defend, hit shots and is a good passer.

Would not hate it if we took him.

He's a dog. Still only 19 yrs old - lots of development ahead of him.

Colby Jones is also a guard - who can also play the 3.

Literally doesn't make sense since Woj gets the picks 5 minutes in advance

The new CBA introducing the Second Round Exception may have been part of Stevens and Zarren's strategy this year. We can now sign second rounders to three or four years without using cap space or part of the MLE.

The pick the Clips wouldn’t give up for Brogdon. No offense to the young man they’re about to take but I hope it flops!

Somehow I think they wanted Prosper, and then moved down and will take Rupert. Just a fun guess.
