Haha, I wasn’t trying to go after you, just stating my thoughts. You’re a very well knowledgeable GM, so I’m sure you have a plan for your madness. Brown could very well prove me wrong, and make me look like a idiot in a few years. Thanks for the feedback!mgtr81 wrote: ↑Sun Jul 28, 2019 3:55 pm Great job guys. I know I made a very unpopular choice ... already said that in my pick article.
No need to justify my decision because I'm happy with it, but:
1. Porter's durability scared me off.
2. When you want a player, you don't risk by trading down.
3. I never reveal trade talks, but the kind of extra "assets" that were on offer were of no value, at least from my point of view. I also had many offers for the pick, but only two worth that pick (one while I was making the selection). I guess people look at my team's record and think they can make offers accordingly.
Yes, I know. I didn't take it that way. I was just commenting on your opinions. I have no problem with critics, that's what forums are for, as long as it's all constructive. I can perfectly understand why many people may not like that pick.hardenwithnod wrote: ↑Sun Jul 28, 2019 7:42 pmHaha, I wasn’t trying to go after you, just stating my thoughts.

Actually he's the one when developed ... 80-plus handling, almost 80 defense, 70-plus stealing, great at drawing fouls with 70-plus scoring, 70's IQ with great discipline plus his size ... he just needs to lose some weight ... and of course hope DDS19 didn't change significantly the development pattern.
That's the biggest if. I do believe he's a PG at 100% potential and I definitely thought about swinging on him if both of Gates and Porter were off the board .... but his development is a bigger question mark than maybe anyone ever drafted. I'm not sure anybody has ever been this rawmgtr81 wrote: ↑Tue Aug 06, 2019 3:22 pmActually he's the one when developed ... 80-plus handling, almost 80 defense, 70-plus stealing, great at drawing fouls with 70-plus scoring, 70's IQ with great discipline plus his size ... he just needs to lose some weight ... and of course hope DDS19 didn't change significantly the development pattern.
