    If it's true that Miller is set at the 2 spot ( will not believe it til i see it ) then I hope Cronin is burning up the phone lines trying to get a trade done simple as that -- Let's go Cronin time to really earn that paycheck you collect.

    I agree. I’m hoping for a Nurk trade though that doesn’t involve the 3rd pick.

    Scoot at 3 is way better for the build around Dame crowd

    Miller is gonna be so good

    Woj was wrong last year because he was reporting before the draft that Chet was going first if I remember correctly... he definitely didn't have Paolo until the pick was in... again if I remember correctly but I'm almost sure he was reporting that first pick incorrectly last year about this time.

    I think he was reporting it the night before or the morning of...

    But I hope you're right.

    I am hoping we don't draft Brangun Miller.

    I know we're probably just going to draft Scoot and then the drama of having drafted a rookie PG when our superstar PG just said a couple weeks ago that he had no interest in rookies can begin but... this is still intense because maybe that's not what happens.

    What’s your thought in saying that? It seems like finally having a legit SF with size would be a better fit with Dame and Sharpe.

    Scoot is 100% ready for the NBA. Miller isnt yet.

    Well, at least if when Dame ask for a trade. We already have Scoot to build around it

    This shit is super awkward. It's like watching us do what we do on broadcast TV. These guys are way way worse than @BonesJones and @hoopsjock who aren't awkward like this and seem to have actual sauces unlike this BE dude.
