    Our only pick Stephen Zimmerman Jr. looks like a nice project player.



    6'11" w/ shoes, 7'3" wingspan and a vert in the mid-30s. Kinda slender but he's only 19. Left handed and has a nice jumper for a big guy. :notbad:

    Still, f--- Henny for his bs earlier in the draft.

    So everything im hearing/reading is that we reached for maker. I've never seen this kid play but I can't wait until he gets playing time.

    Yea if thats really what it was that would have gutted the whole team lol and all their flexibility to get better.

    Brooklyn is gonna be the worst team in the league next year(as Philly and the Lakers will be better) in a much better draft and with everyone having money, nobody significant is gonna go there without a ridiculous over pay.

    Yeah seems close to those late 00s drafts where you could get a cornerstone in the top 5.

    Idk wtf the Bulls are doing to be honest with you. The team isn't objectively awful, and they're not a lock for the playoffs either. The last thing I wanna do is be stuck in the middle and get the 8-9 pick in a stacked draft. When you start to blow up the team, gotta go all the way, no half measures. I have no desire to watch Jimmy do a cheap 05 Kobe impersonation.

    Oh well, at least following Derrick in NY will keep my mind off how awful things might be.

    Celtics are tripping for passing on Dunn. Could be better than IT in his 2nd year IMO.

    Yea if they didnt have like 10 guards. I honestly don't like him THAT much but still think we should have forced someones hand, moved down and still taken Chriss or Brown. Feels too much like they had a deal and then it disappeared last minute and they just pulled the trigger on Brown, because Danny is the type of guy who will pull assets out of his a---. They could have gotten something from Minnesota or NO and still got Brown at 5 or 6.

    Ben Simmons is a glorified Aaron Gordon

    Why because they are both extremely athletic? Thats about as far as the comparison goes.

    Terrible comparison. Simmons is a much more complete package AND has a totally different style of play compared to AG and honestly I love AG.
