...that we missed Tyrese Halliburton by one pick, or that the rumors were that Griff was going to trade out of that spot even if Halliburton was there?

Last 4 games:

103 points
66 assists
4 turnovers

Picking Kira over Maxey hurts too.

The Kings were the dumb ones to trade him.

The Pels also hit on Herb and Trey.

Worked out pretty well for them ... rolled with Fox and Sabonis is a 20-12-7 player

If we had Halliburton we certainly wouldn't have CJ or Nance, who I think are having an enormous on- and off-court impact for the Pels

Instead of celebrating the biggest win this season, you’re worried about a guy we missed on 3 years ago and how well he’s doing???? Like seriously man just enjoy the win. We dont draft Kira, we likely never give Jose minutes- who’s been a critical part of this teams success. We can’t hit on everyone and honestly I don’t care as long as this team is winning competitively.

I Love Tyrese Hali, but it probably hurts worse that we picked Kira over Maxey bc of 2 main factors 1) Maxey w Klutch and 2) Kira is T Spoon’s Nephew.

If you watched film and/or interviews, Maxey was clearly the better prospect and smarter player. But we made our decision based off of 2 non basketball things and Kira being young (and us hoping he’d improve- which he never did).

If this team had Maxey right now instead of Kira it would most definately be a tax team, but likely sitting top 2 in the West.

fricken damn.

What's even crazier is we didn't miss on Tyrese. He was drafted before our pick. Instead of focusing on things we can control, OP is focusing on two non-realities. One where we had the chance to take Tyrese and one where (based on rumors) Griff would have passed on Tyrese.

There’s no percentage in worrying about such things.

We can’t know what he would have done with the Pels.
