    I'm guessing they were only going to do #1, Did they talk to Mobley? Barnes?

    of course the rockets still get little TV time with the #2 pick!! Talk about media conspiracy lol wtf. Just had to announce the westbrook trade. Didn't even get a Jalen Green interview.

    I mean, at least they didn't goto commerical while we picked, right?

    Not so. I saw him get interviewed with his mother. I'm watching on ABC not ESPN.

    Love the Green pick, seems like he has all the tools to be a star.

    Don't love the idea of him and Porter (or Wall) together. Really would prefer a support system that would set him up for good habits.

    Guys we went from an absolute dumpster fire with a likely 18th pick this year to having a serious backcourt pairing of KPJ and the most dynamic scoring threat in this years draft. Wood is still improving and was on course last year to be a serious MIP candidate. He’s going to be fed off these two. We still have #23 and #24. Our future looks bright!!!

    Very disappointing the smart pick would have been Mobley.
