    Or could it be because he was a universal top 10 pick and a majority of the media think it’s a great pick?

    What is the excuse for Bilas?

    This isn't the first time Woj has done this. He does this every draft with NO. He went out of his way to compliment us when we picked RHJ.....even though we traded him away 2 seconds later. Guess he got the trade text a bit late.

    I don’t disagree with your premise about Woj.

    But a fuck ton more media are riding this pick than Woj, which, in my opinion, implies a vast majority of them share the idea that it is a legitimately great pick - not a brown nose job.

    I thought Warriors might go sentimental on Bol

    Was there anyone that thought Little would fall out of the lottery, nevermind to 25? He wasn’t a perfect prospect, but I don’t think anyone saw that fall coming. I never even thought about him as an option tbh.

    Good. Thought of him going to the Warriors scared the heck out of me.

    Edit: Or the Spurs.

    Who are the teams in the second looking to dump picks?

    We'd have to use one of our exceptions or a minimum to sign picks now. I wanted another in the late 20s to lock into a rookie scale

    maybe they changed it in the new CBA: teams can sign a 2nd round pick but they have to use space or an exception to sign them for more than 2 seasons. Do I have that wrong?

    My post was about the blatant Woj-Olshey relationship.
