Gotta give props when it's due. Colangelo didn't screw up.
- Made the right pick between Simmons and Ingram.
- Didn't panic trade for Kris Dunn, who wouldn't fit with Simmons anyway.
- Took a talented 3 and D wing with good upside in Luwawu.
- Got a great shooter in Korkmaz. And he might be the best draft and stash player in the draft. Which works because right now we don't have space for him.
Just gotta trade one of Okafor or Okafor (preferably Okafor), pick up a PG in free agency and we're set.
I think Sixers killed it with the first round. Luwawu looks athletic as hell and unlike many Euro cats, he actually drives it to the basket and shoots. His body seems fine at the moment.
Korkmaz seems to have a lot of praise and he's just 18. nikka won a dunkoff dressed as Darth Vader
These cats really need a PG though.
Two questions though.
1. Is Dario Saric any good?
2. Why do they want to get rid of Okafor so badly when statistically he was probably the 3rd best rookie and basically averaged a double double?
