Not sure why im in the article mood but here it goes. Lmao
This is the toughest decision I have yet to have to make in the draft in 4 seasons and actually loved all these drafts and I have made the right picks 3/3 times.
Smh I just wanted to put out my thoughts Ive had for hours lol even as I write this, I changed my pick twice lol. When I traded for these picks I had 2 completely different players in mind.
We are ready to compete but I’ve always loved to build for the future. So its a pretty tough spot. DJ Wagner obviously had something to do with the decisions for me but the only SG I like cannot be camped by Wagner until next season and If I lose him to FA I cant mentor the SG anyway. So im changing that pick last second.
Looking at my bigs, I am pretty happy with all of them, Rocco, Mara, Felix so I dont really need a big and think a big is too early here at 10-11
I have a lot of depth at the guard spot anyway even if I do lose Wagner. That leaves me a huge whole, even IF I do resign Brandon Miller and Dort, it is my weakest position and the leagues weakest and played the role into these following picks.
I read an article that said this player can score 17, grab 8 rebounds, and 3 stocks per game and thought, my 56 win team would probably enjoy that from a rookie who is older than all my starters except Mitchell. Out of the lottery teams I probably am one of the only that can take the gamble on the guy who was projected to go 6th?
So without further,
With the 10th pick, New York Knicks select Alex Toohey

And heres another article. Just read toohey cant be camped? But why? I dont get it. I thought any rookie can be camped first 4 years. Please correct me if im wrong but I’d like an answer? Still picking Toohey but wasnt aware.
Anyway. This pick is probably even more confusing after last one. Im going with yet another wing. 19 years old and I feel like he can turn into something great if Toohey doesnt. Also i believe he cant play the first 3 years and cant be camped until year 4-7 which is cool i guess. Plus when hes ready to play hopefully 3 years from now Toohey will be almost 30
With the 11th pick, New York Knicks select Dwyane Aristode

Still picking Toohey but wasnt aware. If you are referring to my writeup, it was more a statement of he isn't going to get much better besides through camps. I guess I could have worded it better.

I won't be home for another hour or so, I can get in game and finish out the order but whoever has the Rockets pick is up now, then whoever has the Wolves pick, then me.
