    I bet some Ketucky players take a pay cut when they enter the NBA.

    I was amazed Altman actually recruited him aggressively, Since everybody figured he'd end up a Razorback. Nope!

    Yup oh boy here we go.

    This draft is so deep. We should try to move up into the top 5. You can't go wrong!

    Lonzo Ball's official nickname from this day forth is Mr. Gumby.

    If we can't get quality from any our three picks we should fire our entire scouting department. Look at what Denver has done and that organization one of the cheapest, most absentee owner in sports. Yes, it's a crapshoot but you can find value with the kind of picks we have.

    You could still have two first rounders but the difference in talent from 1-5 is a huge difference from every other player. Sure you can get talent with 3 picks but the goal should be to get one of the next young stars in the NBA.

    I would usually agree but we have THREE picks this time. And we could probably even by a fourth with Allen's money. Damn! I mean, if the draft really is this deep and we miss, something is wrong.

    Ball is more Rubio than Kidd.

    Fox just looks like an NBA player.

    It is a deep draft but it's not full of 30 future hall of famers....

    Kentucky chokes you with their overall talent as usual.
