It was an absolute disaster. Thankfully i got another one on Monday.
Auction drafrs are just a train wreck when you get one thing wrong and everything crashes as a result
I have the #1 pick in my draft tonight. Do you still take Harden even with all the drama? Most lists show him as comfortably the best value.
If itās 9-cat iām not taking Harden #1. I rather have AD by quite a bit.
How much of that decision is due to his recent obesity?
i just donāt like the situation in general. AD has as much of a ceiling as Harden if not higher. You avoid AD because of uncertainty, but when he also might be the safer pick I think itās an easy pick.
In 8 cat itās a different story.

Jazz giving Gobert 40m a year seems awful?

Instantly one of the worst contracts in the association. Tough to get people to play in Utah tho
Yeah what else are they supposed to do? Let him walk for nothing?
How is it that bad? He seems top 20/25 player and is still only 28. $40 million a year doesnāt seem like much, if any, of an overpay for that - especially given itās Utah and they canāt get any FAs without massively overpaying.
I see people posting theyāre fine being a decent team with no chance at a title.
If that works for you then kudos.
I mean, itās not like if they hang on to the money they paid Gobert that Kawhi is going to sign there. Consistent playoff team with a chance for a deep run if they get lucky with some draft picks is really best case scenario for Utah, and a lot of other teams in the league.

But their odds of getting lucky on a draft pick are less because theyāre consistently a playoff team
Seems like purgatory
Yeah I donāt think they had a choice or anything
They arenāt gonna be drafting high with Donovan Mitchell anyway. Best to let Gobert walk so they can draft in the mid teens instead of the mid-20s, slightly increasing their chances of getting super lucky and drafting someone likeā¦ Gobert

Well I hope they enjoy their participation trophy every year
Donāt get the Kuzma signing (or in general the Lakerās love for him). They would be far better off trading him to a team that believes he has upside. Every minute he plays for them next year hurts their title chances. Heās a high volume shooter with below average shooting and plays bad D. Especially now with the Montrezl and Gasol signing, donāt see why he should ever play.
it does feel kinda dirty to give rudy 40m+ a year, but iām not sure they had a good alternative.
