Holy crap, Penix fell to the end of the second.

Yes, not very realistic.

I wasn't sure how I wanted to evaluate things like that. Obviously, luck is going to play a role in any mock draft, but I didn't want to just reward the luckiest draw. I tried to go more with the approach than the specific picks.

Good game between Heat and 76ers

It's not looking good for the Heat.
How about Batum, though? He's become an awesome role player.

Yeah Butler being limited has really cost them.

This is very very spicy. And fairly realistic. Originally I was very against trading out of 11. When we could get Murphy or Newton there easy... But actually with the return we got. JPJ, Penix, KAD. That's a decent return over 1 pick. McKinley Jackson out of Texas A&M I really like. A tonne of upside, might not be a true blue NT but could for sure be part of a rotational role as a 3T or 5T.
That's a really great draft. Good job.

If I win I will roll the sats into our draft contest.

Is that an attempt at bribery Mr Ruby? 🤣🤣 😉

No no. Hopefully we will get a couple more competitors. Slow day on SN today.

Yeah, I'll have to check back in again 2moro as it's night night time for me now. And I've been so busy I've barely been able to keep up with ~Music daily.

Could have got more value in the trade but would have had to break the rules and receive next years picks so just took the haircut and focused on getting picks in the meat of the draft since you had many positions of need.
Could have likely picked up an additional 2025 3rd or 4th rounder in the trade but I like the way the draft worked out so didn't want to chance it and do another.

Well... You're much more disciplined than me with those rules 😉. I'd have grabbed as much as I could milk from them haha!

Trying to set a good example.
