Agree.

It was either Holmes or Missi after Knecht got picked. Project center but nobody else out there excited me at all.

I see reports saying Missi has a safe floor but low ceiling. Weird for a project.

He sounds like someone who's going to threaten his girlfriend and get arrested while fighting the cops?

So the move now is trade up in the second, draft bronmy and trade for Dalton.

Yup also commits bad fouls but is athletic. Sound familiar?

Dude will make a highlight play in summer league but have 7 fouls.

We gave away the 4th pick to draft Hayes. So at least Griff is learning. I like this guy more than Hayes, I’m positive he will work 100x harder than Hayes ever did.

There goes the guy I wanted right after our pick. But why take Homes just because he can shoot, pass and defend the paint...you know play basketball. Give me another raw teen to "develop"

Think I'm taking Holmes over missi in the short term.

Missi is going to take a little while to get where the pels need him.

Nuggets getting Holmes pisses me off for some reason.

I’m gonna choose to be happy with it. For now. As the #1 Jaxson Hayes fan I’ve posted “the guy just needs minutes” way too much on Pels talk already. Hopefully he’s a fast learner.

Bound to have better effort than Jaxson and looks to built more solid.

Almost everyone here would agree that Jax could have been a really good player if he wasn't a dipshit. Unless this Missi guy has a history of frickery, I don't understand the hate.

And we were drafting 21 in a shite draft. What were you all expecting here?

This dude is more raw and currently probably has less basketball IQ than Jax did coming out of college.

Yeah, it's looking like a head scratcher.

Griffin seems to have a type at center in the draft.

He should be leaning to the less athletic more polished player.

Who wants a guy who can shoot, pass, and defend the paint anyway?
