    We won't know for years, of course, but I can see where Cronin thought so.

    Yep. He specifically said that #16 was as low as they felt like they could go. Likely in reference to Minny at 17.

    4 1sts? Holy crap

    Wait, wasn't Dejounte Murray already on the Pelicans last season? This makes no sense.

    I realized it must be both trades aggregated.

    Joe Dumars working overtime to prove a franchise can be run worse than the Kings!

    Im for it - was way to rushed before with second rounders every 2 minutes and non stop ads.

    Though seems like they should change to the NFL where free agency is first and draft afterwards. Move the draft to July 10th.

    Really with the draft I think they could change it to top 20 picks day 1.

    Then all the others day 2.

    Nurk, Vucevic, Sengun, Sandiford-Artest some of the notable 16th picks with John Stockton probably the most successful. Did any of them compete for Rookie of the Year?

    I guess because we drafted Yang, Lakers fans are excited that they might get Ayton. I'll be excited if they get Ayton and we don't have to take back any contracts that go past this upcoming season.
