Those same people were not willing to spend half a mill and bring Willy over a year earlier. If he was better or had more upside than the Unicorn, they would have.

What does any of this mean? So why didnt these people bring Nikola Jokic over--youre going to tell me KP is even close to him? Thats what I see from Willy --hes going to be a version of Jokic. I like KP==but I think hes stuck in between positions--I have no doubt he can be really really good--there is no argument on that--I just think Willy has more upside in a winning environment--what he does well he does in an efficient way. His upside is very high.

But I think Willy G has a more efficient upside wilG is a better passer more efficient scorer better rebounder and while both have some -and + on D Willy has a frame that is going to last.
The problem? I'm not sure together that they balance each other well. That is the only reason why I would've entertain a trade for pick 3 this year-- we have a great big and a fine back up with oquinn.
J Jackson would've given us balance

Now that's done and we move 4 ward but the big thing I want to see-- can willy g and kp co exsist and flourish? I'm not sure

You wanted to draft KP, come on now, you're acting like nobody was on these boards around that time cause you were wanting many things like for us to take W.C Stein or to trade down and draft F.Kaminsky and so on so stop.

Come on--atleast go back and try to back up the claim??

The way i remember it was Kaminsky just like it was Josh Jackson this year. Its not a big deal man. Hell I originally wanted Deangelo Russell badly

People tend to have selective memory. Just today someone said "BRIGGS" you were the one who wanted Crabbe" Well yes thats true but lets not forget my draft sections were Brogdon Derrick Jones and Bryn Forbes and my free agents were Seth Curry and Crabbe.
