    trust the process if you don't want to take my word. we have one of the preeminent draft experts in our front office who is one of the few people who have watched him play in person. Dame was at every workout. This will be a good pick.

    Duren still available at 13. Have to imagine Charlotte is taking him.

    Dynasty.

    I don’t really see our roster after these moves being much better than our roster to begin last year.

    But my take is still warranted.

    I agree with you, I just took exception to that wording.

    Maybe not in Summer League but you're gonna be ecstatic we took Sharpe. Seriously.

    If I'm Dame, and the whole FO has just sold me tanking for a year because of a pick that will help us compete now, and then we end up USING that pick on a project that may be good in 2-3 years, I'd be pretty peeved.

    Things can always change. But yeah, I'd be peeved at this moment.

    @B-Roy Marang has called some stuff, but he's also manufactured drama before for clicks/views. I'd just take his stuff with a heavy grain of salt.

    Here is to hoping:

    Nas is legit starter level.

    Sharpe looks better than expected.
