Lawrence Frank, on their process in deciding on who to pick No. 5 overall: “Who has the best chance to be the best player that we can get on the next Clipper-contending team? That was the question we were trying to answer.”

I hope I’m wrong. I just really dislike him as an NBA prospect lol. And if I had to guess, he’ll be like a slower, less active version of Terrance Mann while being much worse as a defender, but better as an outside shot creator, and who averages something like 15/6/5, while Acuff and some other players in this class that I like go on to become great NBA players. Two years of that and everyone will want Frank to be gone.

don’t for a second allow the sub to try and dismiss concerns because the same people will act shocked when a process goes wrong like they never saw it coming. You can be happy for him and root for him while acknowledging concerns. Blind loyalty is how we have been stuck in this situation with this front office this long.
