I cooled on him. What does he do more than shoot and be tall? More than Saunders?
At worst? He’s a cheaper Bones?

Yes, but you’ll remember I had him ahead of Bruce out of deference to the ESPN experts who had him as the best available in the 2nd round. :). I was also taken in by Isaiah’s video highlights I saw earlier today. But is he better than Meleek? Statistically, Meleek is better than Isaiah even though Meleek is a freshman and Isaiah is a sophomore. My eye test gave Isaiah the edge over Meleek. But Bruce is the guy I wanted. The Rockets are on my shit list. They ruined my night.

I would have gone Thomas, oh well.

[Krawczynski] Our @johnhollinger gives the Wolves an A for taking Isaiah Evans: "I love this pick for MN. Evans can really shoot and showed strong improvement in his SO season. Teams overthought things on his thin frame. He is by far the best prospect available."

I forgot Rocco is on a 2 year two way deal, so #59 is for someone to join him.

GImme a draft & stash.

I guess this means we're gonna target the Collins and Hachimuras' of the FA class

My next move would be buying another 2nd round picks to get Boba Miller. Meanwhile, we’ll have to wait until the end of the night for the Wolves Ischenko era to begin. :)

Just remember: we still got Rocco! :D

Now can wait and see who might fall to 59. Unless we trade out of that one...

There goes the most exciting player in the 2nd round. Not long after Houston robbed me of my Thornton era dream, the Clippers come along and steal my Baba dream.

Hollinger has a good track record so there's that.
