I'm seeing that we are our own harshest critic for once

Or are they just being contrarians to Yahoo's the Vertical--which has the C's as losers and talks about how much Danny has overvalued his picks and other assets?

We got some good players but I think we could have done better, we were largely left in the cold about a lot of the deals.   No one valued our asset pool enough to do a deal.

The Vertical says that we should have traded everything to become a second round playoff team and it's irrelevant who we picked, Fox Sports said we picked really well.  I think adding a star would be fun, but nobody we would have added would have made us anywhere near as good as Cleveland.  I'm not thrilled with Brown but I really like who we got overall.

If I was the Nets Id have Swung for the fences and drafted Skal.

Fox Sports described Jaylen Brown as a wing scorer. Um, no.

I like the guy. I'm happy we drafted him. I gave the overall draft a B. But nobody drafted Brown for his scoring ability. Maybe he will develop it, but to describe him as a "wing scorer" is simply incorrect.

They also gave the Cavs and 76ers A+... and gave Oklahoma an A++++
