2024 Who would you have picked

 Share

Recommended Posts

with all the negativity right now, I think a fun exercise would be to see if you were GM who would you have picked. It's too complicated to go back through all the trades so let's just pretend those are set in stone. Here's how I would have done it:

This will be fun to bump in a year when I am completely wrong about all of this. 

FWIW this is not a complaining thread it's more of an exercise to show that for all of you negativity it's actually really hard to nail drafts in real time. 

32- Ladd

46- AD Mitchell

72- Christian Haynes

101- Theo Johnson

157- Caelen Carson

200- Cedric Johnson

240- Beau Brade

Hard to do because now we know where everyone went (I would have grabbed Sanders at 72 if I didn't know he'd be there at 101)

32 - Ladd

46 - Sainristill

72 - Sanders

101 - Troy Franklin

157 - Hunter Nourzad

200 - Crumdey 

240 - whoever BPA is, I don't know players this late

that's fair and that's my point, this is actually pretty hard to do in real time! It's easy for people to be negative of the GMs in hindsight but when you actually go through the process yourself it gets much harder

yeah honestly I may have taken Franklin at 72 anyway so just flip flop him with Sanders

I’m curious to this one? Wilson medical was a giant red flag bomb. Dude is completely missing an acl

I hadn't read that. I probably would still pick him at 72.  This does make the Wallace pick make more sense

Here is an article. Link

Yea he played on it all season without missing any time, I would have taken a chance on him in the middle of the third.  I can understand tho that Morgan didn't and went Wallace instead

    • I mean it was when Donnelly was out there for two years. The rumor of Knicks getting a frozen envelope for patick ewing, among other stuff. Then there was giving the first pick which was the local choosen one lebron James to cleveland. The league/David stern found a buyer for the new orleans the first pick included gifting of the first pick, which was Antony Davis. As a hornet fan I remember he was 10000000000000000x the clear best player and the hornets drafted a role player without a jumper at #2 overall. Imagine Davis on the hornets, he would have changed the loser history for sure.   Many lotto felt fixed, or WERE fixed.  The thing is these fans are like wrestling fans, they don't care just have drama/action/entrained/etc my smooth brian.   My issue is why would the other owners allow this? Sure money and all, but after billions millions don't matter as much....they want trophies, wins, and bragging rights among other owners. If I was a owner and we had one of those "secret" meeting and they go- "Bas we are giving the clear #1 pick Davis to new orleans and you get the #2 so be happy'. I'd put the team up for sale the nano second after that BS.  I felt the same, but I left the NBA mainly cause the games were boring and lazy until 2 minutes left in each quarter. All-star games became regular season games. Yes teams/coaches like spurs with pop, Larry brown, and pat Reilly played hard. Then add in Michael Jordan being the worst owner in history, it was easy to leave.       
    • IMO his issues are fundamental and not personnel wise.  He is not going to overcome that in one off season
    • I’m hoping he overcomes all this. Like I said last year, if he’s good we are good, but he’s got a lot to improve on.
