Somewhere McD is laughing and thinking... you thought I drafted bad... you should of seen who the other guys wanted.

Didn't we recently decimate our scouting side?

I guess you get what you don't pay for.

Maybe he should have spent a little more time on the computer during the season...

At least look up a few mock drafts to see where players are supposed to be drafted.

are you freaking kidding? Steve your ability to spin gold out of a pile of hay on top of a steaming pile of crap is unrivaled. You really don't have a clue how you could say Tatum was better as a freshman? Let's see, he was 5 years younger, averaged the same amount of points, more rebounds, same assists and was a good shooter... again 5 YEARS YOUNGER.

Yeah... he looks like a finished product, who will make minimal impact on the league. Just because he's reached his ceiling around doesn't mean... ah forget it.

you're right. you're always right when seeing the brightest side of the sun... even during a full on lunar eclipse.

What the hell, do you have a reading problem? I'm not at all in favor of this pick. And why do you always go for the jugular, just disagree and quit trying to crawl up my ass.

I was seeking a little clarification there because I wasn't sure we were at cross purposes. It seemed to me that Pbit was insisting that Jayson actually played better as a freshman than Cam did as a 5th year senior and yes, I'd disagree with anyone that said that. It's absurd. Cam greatly outplayed him, and he should have. Johnson was 23 and Tatum was probably the youngest kid in his class. I don't see how that's me spinning anything. It's called MY OPINION, and the facts support it. Go to Basketball Reference and see for yourself.

Gave up Milwaukee's #1 pick next year for Jerome.

Please tell me there are protections for that pick???? This kids finished almost dead last in every athletic drill thrown at him in the combine.

And we just acquired Aron Baynes...

Great. Another poor athlete and subpar player.

Are we trying to accumulate as many scrubs as possible?

Actually, I am wondering if Sarver continues to be obsessed with Euro Ball and is still trying to force that boring, unathletic style of play on this team.

Cap space wise, the Suns have effectively traded TJ Warren for...Dario Saric and Aron Baynes. What a freaking joke!

He is an expiring contract move for next season that can give Ayton some rest in minimal minutes....and I mean minimal.

So are we going to keep giving up assets just to punt cap space down the road a year while acquiring nobody to actually improve this team???

It's the Bucks. How low do you think it will be??

We traded our pick though correct or was it the other way around? If we traded our pick...chances are good it will be low.

Just saying, Baynes had some good games against our front lines.

True but you still protect the pick if the Bucks go through an injury plagued season The way the day has gone though.nothing will surprise me.
You don't hang onto an asset because you "hope" that a team will get injuries. A late-20s pick for Aron Baynes and 24 is actually pretty good value.

I like the player, I think that the Bucks pick was reeeeally overrated on this board as an asset...

Not thrilled about getting Banes. He does fit the mold of "NBA quality bench player" and we did sorely need those, but his 5 mil salary takes a dump on the hopes of a signing like Brogdon.
