Not sold on Deni hated the pick wanted Vassell. I hope I'm wrong though.

A year ago someone commented that Deni was likely wizards dream choice. That this was someome Tommy was keying on for a long time. You could see he was pumped. He got the guy he actually wanted and has keyed on for a while. Think about it. This is a 6 foot 10 guy who is a playmaker and has the type of vision and passing ability most point guards don't have. And you see him with handles taking people off the dribble. Can get all the way to the rim, has a post up game that he goes to a lot especially on mismatches....and unlike bonga who's about the same height Deni has an nba body and won't be pushed around.. it's comedy watching Deni post up grown men in euro league.

The type team Tommy is building doesn't necessarily have shooters but we saw the offense is not an issue. It was clickng last season. The team is just full of playmakers who as a collective will get the ball to each other and still score.

I like robin lopez addition because he's so huge. He's going to get Beal and wall open on dribble drives. He's going to get Bertans open looks on threes. He's also an additional play maker at the top of the key. I love his play making and that will also get the offense going.


I honestly thought Deni would be out of our reach. That's why the wizards base focused on okoro, vassell and Nesmith. And we are still stuck on them even though someone better slipped to us. Actually we are lucky patrick williams jumped into the top ten. That pushed one of the guys back.

@Gil Scott-Heroin has zero idea about talent or basketball. Wiseman is the best prospect in this draft period. He’s been NBA ready for 2 years

You're a sucker for punishment, aren't you?

It doesn't mean a cotdamn thing if Wiseman is the "best prospect" in this draft. The best prospect isn't going to help the Warriors win next season. The best fit and player who can accentuate their strengths is going to help them win next season. Wiseman needs a franchise that's willing to take their time with him and give him a central role that allows him to play through his ups/downs - that's not the Warriors. They ain't got no time for that. It's win now.

You are the most clueless, casual poster here.

Wiseman is ready to contribute to any team right now. He’s been ready since high school.

@Squirrel from Meteor Man busy trying to work out in his rockbrain how he can move the goalposts to make himself look less embarrassing.

FUakK!!!!

Are you kidding me. We need a point guard WHY?!

I can’t believe this. Tyrese literally fell to us and we pass on him.

All these years later and I’m still pissed they drafted Obi Toppin over Tyrese Halliburton. I can’t believe this

That was a nasty pick

 

[Controversy]

As a piston fan I ain’t taking Halliburton

dude is just another role player at the 2 at BEST




He isn’t a guarantee to be even as good as Kennard or Brown so what’s the point ?


Trade the pick if it comes down to this or reach for the stars with R.J Hampton

For this give me R.J

Every guard prospect at this point is heavily flawed .

 

[Controversy]

Issac Okoro is like Jimmy Butler and Kawhi, if he develop a jump shot, he gonna be a top 10 player in this league because he got everything else.

 

[Controversy]

Knicks don’t overthink it. Please draft Haliburton

It was an easy decision

 

[Controversy]

For the love of God NY leave Obi alone. RJ Barrett & Halliburton? Hell yeah

RJ mediocre...but Haliburton tho

 

[Controversy]

Haliburton would be a TERRIBLE pick for NY

the man is not a PG.

 

[Controversy]

Of course the Knicks would draft another PF instead of Halliburton

Called it on 11.18.2020 during the draft as the pick was announced

Respect my knowledge of hoops

 

[RubioTheCruel]

Haliburton would be a TERRIBLE pick for NY
