ORL has an odd team:

Markelle Fultz   Jalen Suggs   Gary Harris   Jonathan Isaac    Wendell Carter

Cole Anthony   R.J. Hampton   Terrence Ross   Chuma Okeke   Mohamed Bamba

Michael Carter-Williams   ETwuan Moore  Mo & Les Wagner  Robin Lopez

Hassani Gravett     Ignas Brazdeikis  Admiral Schofield  Jon Teske

some great names at the end of the bench ...

Who's their best player?

How many legit starters do they have?

Who takes the last shot?

Which Magician would you want on your team?

Leave those guys in Orlando to fulfill their doormat duty.

Trey Murphy III would have been a worthwhile trade up target.

Meanwhile, I am quite happy with our draft.

Me, too. 

As per Bo, coulda moved up? 

Like, DUH, the Knicks surely tried.  Much as WWW [World Wide Wes] campaigned hard for Immanuel Quickley, apparently Chris Duarte was the girl of his dreams this time out.  Great size at 6'6", can defend multiple positions, drop dead shooter.  He and Bouknight were very much on our radar. 

Trey Murphy at 6'8" also with size and stroke.  Went at #17.  If he had been there at #19, don't think we woulda made the Charlotte trade. 

And yes, Bo, Cam Thomas is a scorer.  So is Quentin Grimes for crying out loud.  Can't draft everyone.

Meanwhile, people were scratching their heads when the Raptors passed on Suggs to pick Scottie Barnes at #4. 

Well, GUESS FUCKING WHAT. 

The 3&D of Bo's dreams.  Barnes is a beast.

Our game plan seems to involve never turning the ball over at all. So far so good, though all I got was the play by play. The NBA has added enough detail to make it more followable than previous iterations (type of shot & from how far out).

Taj and Jericho held down the front line.

Quickley looks like he is going to keep McBride and Grimes situational for a bit. His work looks to be paying off.

Sims is situational as well, but he stepped up and mostly made the most of the situation.

Knox and Obi both seem more at home as well.

It's incredible to come back to the forum and read even more carping about the draft.

I mean, Jesus.

I don't know why folks get off on endless hyper-analysis and prognostications, but you know what......

they're actually playing ball again!

And we're looking good! I'm gonna enjoy the ride!

(fuck the Nets!)
