So basically these cats were over worrying over a length that's the radius of less than 2 bottle caps:beli:
I'm not expecting homie to be some defensive stallworth or anything but the night of the draft I saw about 17 posts complaining about homie's arm length as if he had Tiryon Lannister's midget/dwarf arms on a 6'5" body.

I'd love to see a list of players in the league with similar negative wingspans.
:francis: the list of negative wingspan draft picks is not great. Kelly O and JJ are not bad though.

these are allegedly all the players who were drafted with negative wingspan since 2000

At #13 I wasn't expecting a star. He seems to have decent skills. Would longer arms have helped? Sure. But if he can consistently hit shots like that come regular season time I wouldn't care if he did have Tyrion Lannister dwarf arms

I know there were other prospects that the brehs wanted badly but if that's who they liked in their workouts :manny:

Imo I think it's clear that Herro will become a solid role player in this league. But that's my problem with the pick...we went the safe route when we're desperate for a star (I know we have Jimmy now but we need another star around him)

I take it by your post that your assumption is that one of Langford or Sekou will be a star?

the best bet for 95% of the draft is to be a solid role player.

the best bet for 99% of the draft outside the top 10 is for solid role player.

Really wasn’t many guys with huge potential except a few really boom or bust players

He walks in already becoming our best shooter

Guess Beal is a NO GO since i dont hear anymore talks about it. At the same time i doubt that this is all RIley had up his sleeve. He's hell bent on making one last big splash and i quote "trying to win a championship" before he calls it quit.
Makes you wonder who their next target may be. :lupe:
We know Dragic is on the trading black for sure. If we somehow drop Waiters too :banderas:Not that I hate Waiters or anything. :whoa:
I think him coming back from surgery he needed more time. But his ego in the same locker room as Jimmy Butler...:lupe:
+ I wanna clear the logjam at SG to give Okpala some PT early on:ahh:
