What the hell is Detroit going to do with their pick

Their culture isn't that established yet, same goes with Cleveland and Minnesota

One thing I'm not worried about but Instead impressed, is that even though were losing, I think the groundwork to resume a winning season is there. Just need the talent. With some teams it's the reverse (full of raw unrefined talent but no structure)
Naw. Going into this season it was land Giannis or Bust and it was a bust, a complete bust.

The only good that came out of this season is we now know where the franchise is. Slightly above a complete rebuild.

We have so many gaps to fill.......And so many mistakes to correct.

I am happy that Flynn looks like a solid pick.

We are in the best spot I was scared we’d finish like fourth and bounced in the first or second round

now we are guaranteed at worst a top ten pick in a great draft

meh, we're not gonna be high enough to get someone that's intriguing. We really need a volume scorer desperately, but we most likely wont get that by drafting.

We are in a fragile position. One false move and that's it for the next 3-5 years.

Why do Raptor fan keep quoting these numbers as sumn positive 30 % is only good as a batting average nothing else.Dont tell me about NO and Zion that was luck that likely wont bounce that way 2 years in a row....If the FO had planned this out from the beginning theres no question this team could have been there with Minnesota,Detroit and Cleveland....We were very very bad with baynes so why did we go out and upgrade that position to do what ??? thats a FO not planning...Stick with baynes all season we are in the top 5 and dont have to fool ourselves into thinking 30% is positive...

Nikkas saying we couldnt have been worse with our core are lying,we started the season 2 - 8.

Masai and bobby didnt plan anything beyond hoping on Giannis and now in top heavy draft with nothing to play for were gonna wind up with Kai fukkn Jones.....

If we get Kai Jones (to a lesser extent Ziaire Williams or Keon Johnson) and we toss Siakam, I'll be content.

But I don't know how we can look at a core with Spicy Pee and FVV, and think it's a solid base or good position.

Damn, Last game on Sunday

What a forgettable season for the whole league
Indeed. To think we were at .500 only twice and above it only once. And when we were 1 game over all the COVID precaution bullshyt followed the next day and boom, 9 game losing streak.

Season is WOAT status, has me watching Mike James highlights.

Then they have that stupid ass play-in tournament with all of the mediocre teams. They should bush that shyt and go straight to the playoffs
What they should have experimented with was a best of 16 last year with the bubble

They may never get an opportunity like that again, with all the teams in ONE place
