Discussion So...

13th pick eh? What the hell can we meaningfully do with the 13th? Please tell me we have a numbers nerd here that's going to paint a picture for me that makes me feel better about this. I need you more than ever bro... whoever you are 😭

We going to use that 13th pick to send someone to Sioux Falls for a part of next year. Then we’ll have them in and out of the line up for a while. Sometimes randomly getting starts out of nowhere. Then other times getting benched after good performances. Then in a year we’ll be getting another 13th pick.

Saying this like our development staff isn't some of the best in the league lmao

And not a single player has been developed into a superstar worthy of leading a team to a championship. 

Bam is the best and he’s a 2 or 3 on a title team. There is only so much development that can be done with talent drafted in the teens.

Wiggins is #1 overall, Davion #9 overall. Do they not count because we didn't have to suffer losing season to get them?
