Jordan Poole

I think the amount of trades is really indicative of how relatively weak the draft is as well.  It makes it fun for us though.
Celtics
9:34
I forgot About Fernando. Maybe he will be there at 33
Chris Crouse
9:34
Fernando could have went as high as 20.
9:35
He's a steal for some team here. He's really worked on his range.
Pistons
9:35
They need a Backup PG is there anyone good left on the board or is that a free agent target?
Chris Crouse
9:35
Poole would have been a nice pick for the Pistons
Warriors
9:35
What were we thinking? Why Poole over Porter Jr?
Al
9:36
Jaylen Hands for backup PG with upside
Cleveland Fan
9:36
Will J.R. Smith be dealt? Or has the value of that contract been overstated?
Chris Crouse
9:36
That contract has value. Cavs don't necessarily need a pick in this draft.

I have been a lifelong Suns fan ! What do you think of our moves so far this evening ? Where do we go from here ?
Chris Crouse
9:37
It's not all bad for the Suns.
9:39
Giving away Warren hurts. I'm surprised he didn't get them an asset

I don't believe in calling any team "losers" on the day of a draft because anything can happen, but Phoenix has definitely been the most puzzling team with Boston a close second.
Chris Crouse
9:40
Phx isn't a loser, they just took a bigger risk than most teams
9:41
They're banking that they can bring in someone impactful with the cap space. If they can get DLo, great move
If they ended up signing pieces ala the Kings a few years ago, then that's problematic.
Matt
9:41
With Brynes gone to Suns do Celtics need to get another Center in Draft
Warriors
9:42
Did we just sacrifice a player with a medium floor and high ceiling for a
Luke Adams
9:42
For what it's worth, at least three separate reporters had Keldon Johnson to Cavs at No. 26 before they all said it'd be Dylan Windler instead. Wonder if the Cavs shifted gears at the last minute?
Chris Crouse
9:43
Perhaps the Cavs changed their minds while on the clock. Keldon now on the Spurs..
hiflew
9:43
Thank you Luke.  I felt like I was on an island there.
Warriors
9:43
Why didnt we pick Porter Jr. A lineup of Curry Porter Jr Iggy/FA Green and Looney is scary but when Klau returns and having him come off the bench would have been scary. Not sure of this pick
Chris Crouse
9:44
Can't believe Porter Jr. is still there.
x%sure
9:44
There are a few guys in the Cavs room saying We could have had Kabengele.  (Or Culver)  And where is that JR Smith-acquired pick!  It should have moved in a draft some people dis.  (not me)
Chris Crouse
9:45
Smith's contract not getting moved yet it surprising but there's a whole second round
Celtics
9:45
We should trade up with the Pistons to garentee we get Fernando instead of hoping he falls to us like we most likely did with Clarke and look how that worked out
Chris Crouse
9:45
There's a few notable centers left
Lakers 2nd round pick
9:45
Bol Bol?
Chris Crouse
9:45
Second-rounder unless he goes here
Celtics
9:46
Trade both seconds and the 1st we just got from the Suns to the spurs to get Fernando
Chris Crouse
9:46
Maybe here or the top of the 2nd
CAVS
Four second-round picks to the Pistons
4!
Celtics
9:47
Give me Fernando over Bol any day. If I were to rank the centers it would be Hayes Clarke Fernando Bol and Claxton tied for last
x%sure
9:47
Clarke already fell a lot, I doubt the Celtics thought it would even more.
Lakers 2nd round pick
9:47
I see teams buying 2nd round picks.  I hear Lakers want to buy one bad.  Yet no deal. Is it that no team wants to work with Pelinka or help the lakers.
Chris Crouse
9:48
Sixers deal No. 42 to the Wizards for Jonathon Simmons
