Still think one guy is dropping drastically. I think this guy is a top 15 talent and he's still available.

Thought.

Blake is an awesome value pick at that spot. Broderline franchise player. Top 15 for sure.

I'm interested in how Memphis will build around Klay. Great two way player, and he has shown on spurts that he can be the guy.

The Jimmy Butler pick is decent to me. Its always great to have a two way player, but I rated Kyle Lowry ahead of him.
 

I think Lowry is a reach here considering who is still available.

Oh yes, I agree.

I just rated Lowry Higher than Jimmy Butler.

I think Butler is a good value here.

Number 1 rule of drafts, don't mention those who are not picked.

John Wall finally got picked.

I thought he's a top 15 talent. Dropped to 22. Good pickup by NOP.

He got picked so I can mention him now.

John Wall.

Its crazy that he lasted at 22. Surely he should have been top 15.

I don't think it was such an unpredictable fall though. The point guard position is so deep right now. Wall's arguably better than Lowry and Lillard, likely better than Irving, but it's a rough argument with several other All Star-calibre talents yet to be drafted.

On the topic of All-Stars. This is Giannis's year. Count on it.
