Bey went 19, Maxey 21, our pick was at 24, so we couldn't have drafted either one.
Also, the 24th pick netted us Adams, and I would rather have him over Bey or Maxey, so we did great.

If there's one thing the last draft proved is that all the players with higher floors than ceilings are generally performing well early on. The guys who are considered highe upside guys are struggling to find their footing a bit. I guess we would have to wait 4-5 seasons to really rate these guys properly. But we dont know if they'll still be here by then. Patience will be thin as long as we play to win.

We gave the 24th pick to Denver, just to get a future 1st to give in the Adams trade. We could have easily just gave away the Lakers 22 1st instead if we wanted to pick at 24, and it would not have been hard at all to move up from 24 to 19 with all the 2nd round picks we have. See Denver wanted two picks in this draft, and we didn't, as evidence by us trading away the two 2nd round picks for cash and future shittier 2nd round picks. The Knicks moved from 27 to 24 by just giving up the 38th pick. The Celtics didn't want to make a pick at 14, and the Mavs didn't care about making their pick at 18. But we've got Thornwell and Hernangomez to develop so no worries.
And like i said, i wanted either of them at 13, and that's not to say i do'nt want Kira. I would have been fine with any of those 3 at 13, as well as Vassell.
We've been in need of a god damn true SF since we were the Hornets, but i guess we didn't like Hunter enough to draft him, which was dumb, and we didn't like Bey enough to go after him, which is also looking dumb..
