top 5 athlete in the draft catching lobs from Kyrie.
Yeah, if he can earn any playing time.
Anyone we picked at this point was going to have a very difficult time earning playing time next year.

definitely a swing-for-the-fences pick.  fills a thin position on the team and has the physicality to make it.  hoping the questionable drive is a non-factor.

Solid pick.  Now hire KG as a consultant.  Even yelling him Robert over Skype would be worth the money.

Get ready for the next Fab Melo if we pick Williams.
Remember when Fab was predicted as a lotto guy and slipped? Oh. Wait.

Fab Melo was projected at #5 at one point if I'm not mistaken.

RIP Fab
I think you're thinking of Jared Sullinger

Great pick for #27! He could be the interior beast we've been looking for?

Exactly what the bench needed. A big that can defend and is athletic.

Look at the guys Boston can throw at Embiid: Williams, Theis, Horford and maybe Baynes

That is some seriously different looks

Yes!!!!!  Williams cost himself a lot of money by not coming out last year and I love it.  Texas A&M was a lousy fit for him.

Brad will figure out how to take advantage of his strengths and hide his weaknesses.  Really pleased. He would have gone top 10 in last year’s draft.

We needed someone to defend Embiid.

I seriously don’t think he watches basketball.

“I haven’t watched Doncic play” yet wanted to be a GM

“Boston has nobody who can catch lobs” Theis and Al say hello
