Cue the James Young fist pump gif.
You’ll have to excuse my lengthiness—the reason I dread writing letters is because I am so apt to get to slinging wisdom & forget to let up. Thus much precious time is lost.

Bill Simmons is irrelevant. Don’t respect his opinion in the slightest.

That's what I was thinking.
"There are two kinds of people: those who say to God, 'Thy will be done,' and those to whom God says, 'All right, then, have it your way.'"

First good thing I've heard about the draft (Other than the Grant Williams grades).

He didn't like the Brooklyn deal, right?

I value his old protege Kevin O'Connor's opinion much more when it comes to the draft.

Bill is salty because we moved Mattise Thybulle and Ty Jerome who he had as his picks for us.

I am far from sold on Thybulle and am much happier that we went with Williams and I did not like Jerome at all.
Is Jerome going to be a starting point guard? He plays like a starting Point Guard but I don't think he'll ever be good enough at the NBA level to start for an elite team at the 1. Give me Carson Edwards who could be electric as a backup PG.
