I really wanted Cat Barber -- I thought there was a good chance that kid would've gotten picked in the 1st round/most definitely early 2nd round. He was there all the way through and we didn't even offer him a SL contract. Same with Gary Payton II. Baffling. Absolutely baffling.. We have no depth behind Derrick Rose, a guy who's had MAJOR injury concerns. I mean ****--I wanted one of these guys back when we at least had depth with Jose, Grant and Wroten...I mean all indications were Phil was planning to buy into this 2nd round. For who?!? Who did he want?? With all the reaches made, all of the more well-known guys were all there late in this draft right where I hoped they'd be. Then we lay a big fat egg and do nothing. Pisses me off. I wasn't asking for the moon here, wasn't asking for a first round pick, wasn't asking for multiple picks. Neither was ever realistic if you ask me, esp. after dealing away Grant.. All I wanted was one of these PG prospects projected to go late. They were all available. We WHIFFED HARDCORE on this!!

Puzzled also... lets see whats next.

Holy crap you should calm down some. It was a weak draft and most of these kids that went 2nd round will never be much of anything in the NBA and most will never even be on a NBA team. If Phil and his team thought there was someone that was worth them trading/buying a pick then they would have done it if they could have. Phil will fill out this roster but i'm sure his main focus will be on getting the next big name for the starting unit and filling out the starting unit so he knows just how much money they'll have to fill out the bench. I'm not worried at all at this point and think Phil will have us a good team to play with next season.
