We still have a good shot at Cooper/McBride/Butler

We might regret this whole night considering how crazy it has been.

Great read on our guy. Sounds like our guys got what they were looking for.

Yeah, I would've even preferred McBride. But no biggie.

I think reach at 25 (though Grimes at 25 is probably a reach too)

I think McBride is the pick at 32

think this may surprise us like the IQ pick next year but they seem like similar players

One of the top 3 point shooters in College bball don't sleep here guys. Scored a ton at the combine scrimmage. Houston was one of the top defensive teams.

Yikes, I remember watching Grimes in the Final Four game vs Baylor...he was awful
VDesai @ 7/29/2021 10:48 PM
Don't think Grimes was a reach he was a firm first rounder. I wanted a PG and a wing and we can still do that here.

Yeah, that's why I can't go crazy. Once Coop is here, I'll feel better.

I don’t know Grimes. But nba spaces game more than college and some of these guys take a jump in nba w extra space

Good pick

Hoping for Butler. Kid is going to be a solid Pro. High BB IQ and great composure. Shot 41 from three and part of a very good Baylor team. Only reason he is this low is an overhyped medical condition.

Hyland was one of my sleepers.

He played for a demanding defensive oriented coach in College too in Kelvin Sampson. He is the right kind of culture fit.

Yeah, but you could say every pick after 3 has been a bit of a reach.

I like Sharife, but I would be surprised if we drafted a smallish pg for Thibs.

It’s been a crazy night, but our strategy has been all over the place.

I am good with the Grimes pick. I wanted a shooter and we got one that plays D
