Nets front office is absolutely terrible, one of the worst runs of drafting I may have ever seen. Sean Marks proving he’s one of the worst GMs since Billy King again

New Orleans fans, I know you gotta be looking at Joe sideways with the trade he made tonight for Queen at 13.
I cannot wait to see how Zion and Queen look together

As a Rockets fan, that 2027 pick swap is looking really good

Yang dapping up Rich Paul had me 
. Rich the goat agent for real he don't leave no stone unturned
The fukking Pelicans have replaced all those draft picks the Hawks owe the Spurs AND they traded them an all defense team guard on top of it. Meanwhile Dejounte hurt and talking about how trash the pelicans organization was when he got there
The Blood Sugar Boyz Zion and Queen going to have the cost of insulin through the roof in N.O.
Nets out here drafting Russians and Jews like they about to shoot a world war 2 period piece film

Just got back, some thoughts:
Brooklyn drafted a bunch of really nice passers, but who are they passing to? Not one shooter, granted, this draft didn't have many, but fuuuuck, they better draft Brea
Ainge taking Bailey anyway was funny. Also, if your top 3 overall guys were Flagg, Harper and Bailey, yep, all in the Western Conference. Thanks East.
After thinking about it, I don't hate Phoenix acquiring Williams to go with Maluach, but dammit stop trading future firsts.
Yang going to Portland made less sense.
@Brozay I'm trying to like Essengue to the Bulls. I kinda woulda preferred a Clifford. I'm intrigued to see how Essengue and Buzelis pan out. Lots of talent but raw.
the rest of the league really let OKC get their hands on Sorber and Clifford (Clifford went to Sacramento but still)
Beringer is a very proactive pick
Queen to New Orleans can't end halfway decently. Either somehow he embraces the situation and he and Missi become a formidable duo or he turns into Michael Sweetney.
I had a solid night overall.

oh, Coli had a solid draft all things considered.
I'm gonna use the Sam Vecenie tally
I had 9 picks dead on (Jonathan Givony had 5)
8 picks within a +/- of 2 spots
5 more +/- 4 spots
0 where I nailed the team but off on the pick.
27/30 first rounders, my top 26 all went in the first round (only missed on Raynaud, Fleming, and Kalkbrenner)

Hawks were one my lowkey teams for a Giannis trade, their offer even got better where they can offer Bucks their own pick back
Bill Simmons called it the top 5 worst trade of this decade

Nawlins dead traded their frp in ‘26 knowing damn-well they’re destined to be ass, again. Absolutely incredible.
