Quote from: LarBrd33 on June 26, 2015, 12:18:20 AMI'm actually fine with all these people retroactively pretending like Hozier was a good pick. Maybe you're right... maybe he'll be a surprise talent. Maybe he'll beat out Smart and Thomas and end up a starting PG. Fine. Dream your little dream. But the fact is, that guy was projected in some mocks to be a 2nd round pick. If Ainge wanted him, why didn't he trade down? There was no reason to take him that high. It seems dumb to me.Unless you're telling me that everything from 16-30 was interchangeable, that pick was a reach.You know maybe people actually like him and that's a real laugh coming from the guy who gushes over Anthony Bennett.

Maybe he'll make an impact in Maine next season.
Tyshawn Taylor 2.0. Who's Tyshawn Taylor, you ask? Exactly.
