    Dude! I like you as a poster, agree with most of your posts. :cheers:
    But for the love of god you dont need to start a new thread for every thought you have. This could have been easily answered in the draft threads.

    The reporting says future second round picks that's all any of us have to go on.

    OKC took Sorber, which I predicted, but I'm a little surprised they took Clifford. If I was somebody like Dieng I'd feel nervous around now. I figured they'd take a draft and stash, but they took the guy everyone said would be an immediate contributor. And they're the last team in the league that needs one.

    Yes but it will be at a secure location, far away from any fans.

    So prove it by answering it. And then it can be merged. But I'd never find the answer if it was in the draft thread.

    Nah. Ask it in another thread. Dont say "answer it and then merge it".

    Ask it in the relevant thread. Dont be the "the workers will do it afterwards" be better than that.

    “He was on our board rated extremely high. We didn’t realize only our team thought he was this good but in 2025 it’s imperative that you have a backup center to your backup center. “

    I am fantasizing this means Ayton is gone. But I know that’s bullshit. This is Joes post season

    I can see it now

    Reporter: Yang was one of the biggest surprises of the draft. What made you draft him?

    Cronin: Mike and I have been watching him for years. We got our guy!

    Reporter: But, why at #16? Why not buy into the 2nd round?

    Cronin: If you found a Jokic, would you wait for the second round to draft him?

    Man…. This poor guy is getting massively setup to fail. He should have had second round expectations. Now people are gonna be massively disappointed when he doesn’t turn out to be the next Jokic.

    The worst thing you can do to your reach is to start calling them a Jokic.
