 With the picks in now show me who you would have taken at each spot.

 #3 Jamal Murray
 #16 Henry Ellenson not a huge fan at #16 take him
 #23 Ante Zizic. Made a thread I wouldn't take Bender cause I liked Zizic more.
 #31 Deyonta Davis surprised we moved out. Love him as a project big.

#3 - trade for Noel or Okafor, Covington, the late picks
#16 - Trade for Thaddeus Young and get a future Nets 2nd rounder thrown in.
#23 - Zizic
#31...I like what he did
#45 - Probably Paul Zipser

You know....something actually impactful.

I still think Butler is overrated.

Bender
Luwawu
Davis
Diallo
Brogdon

Yeah, I'm no GM so my opinion doesn't matter, but we will see how this list looks in a few years.

Weren't you suggesting we trade a similar package for Middleton?
Are you implying Middletin is better than Butler?
"We are lucky we have a very patient GM that isn't willing to settle for being good and coming close. He wants to win a championship and we have the potential to get there still with our roster and assets."

Read that last line again. One more time.

#3 - who cares
#16 - no idea
#23 - doesn't matter

Seriously, fans take themselves way too seriously.  I'm going to trust the guy with the time and knowledge to make the picks and not pretend like I know anything at all about who to draft.

#3 - Traded with Young for Noel, Covington
#8 - Traded 16 and whatever other picks in this draft needed to get to #8 for Chriss

Would've ended up with the following roster at the end of the night:

PG: IT, Rozier
SG: Bradley, Smart, Hunter
SF: Crowder, Covington
PF: Chriss, JJ, Mickey
C: Noel, KO

Waived Amir.

That gives you the best of both worlds of a high-ceiling prospect while improving now and getting our rim protector for the immediate future.

You'd then be going strong into free agency with plenty of cap space and assets for trade.

Dunn, Ellenson, Davis, Diallo, Brogdon, Jackson, Bentl

Let them fight our sophomores for spots... most of these guys would win out.

These picks feel better after a few glasses of wine.

Love Brown @ 3. He was projected there most of the season.
The French dude is mysterious. I liked a big there,  maybe Davis (who we layer traded)
Zizic is a strong pick
Diallo
Zimmerman
Like the late picks of Jackson and Bentle.

I think I would have gone
#3 Bender, but Brown was my clear second choice
#16 Zizic
#23 Luwawu or Korkmaz
#31/35 I'd take the same trade that Ainge took.  Value-added, it's a solid single.
#45 Jackson or Zipser
#51 Bentil
#58 Best player who agrees to be stashed

 That's actually a great practical Bpa Draft. Tp. I'll revise it a tad ..

I'm fine with the second round. That's largely swing and miss (though I wish we could take Zagorac and Davis)

First round:
Dunn
Ellenson
Zizic/Luwawu/Korkmaz/Labissiere (really fine with any of them)
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

First of all I would have been in a better position to make the BPA pick because I wouldn't have fudged up the Terry Rozier pick last year, so I wouldn't have been looking at the same glut of guards.
