The entire board should be shut down in the offseason then.

3 weeks ago nobody here had ever heard of Saric. Now half the board's disappointed that we won't get to draft him.

How many people here are actually basing opinions on actual games they've watched?

I'd say almost no one based off the way the board's collective mind changes on prospects weekly, daily, even though most of these guys haven't played in months.

Whether or not anyone has heard of him prior to a couple of weeks ago is irrelevant. You don't have to know who a prospect is prior to watch them play. There are game tapes out there if you can actually find them. If you're resourceful enough, it's not too hard to find.

Come on. People didn't jump on and off the Saric bandwagon because they watched game film...

They read that Dell was in Croatia looking at the guy so they convinced themselves to like the guy.

If reports started coming out that Dell was in love with Rudy Gobert we'd all figure out a way to like him because he might have eventually played for us.

In the same way that everybody came around to Rivers last year after it was obvious that Dell and Monty would take him if he was there. Rivers was not by any means universally liked before that.
