Lip wanted CJ also. I would have been happy with CJ I just did not want Burke. That block CJ just had was awesome. I wanted Murray. I'd be happy to have settled with Lip's pick of Buddy though.

I was have ruined this team those drafts. KCP and Murray would have been my picks.

Then I would have hung on to Zach Lavine and drafted Zach Collins

KCP went 1 pick before the Wolves trading down which I believe was just the first of what ailed Flip coming out of that draft. Worth remembering we could have passed on CJ and still picked 2 all NBA guys in that draft in the first round.

Enes Kanter can't play defense...his team is now in the western conference finals. Lol He turns 27 May 20.

Edit: Since we are playing this game...I would have straight up taken him over Derrick Williams at #2.

My choice was Buddy Hield over Dunn. I was against acquiring Butler and just wanted us to roll with the young guys and build organically. Thibs was a terrible fit for the roster and I would have liked to have seen what Kenny Atkinson could have done with them.

Yeah. I'm surprised his Free Agency isn't being treated like KD or Lebron's was. Maybe after this playoffs it will ramp back up but I take him as the top player in the league and teams should be lining up to offer him the moon.

I know that's the narrative, but it seems like other teams aren't even bothering to try. This is arguably the best player in the league and it continues to go under the radar.
