Not only Ainge, but a whole slew of other GM’s too. But yeah, how could Ainge have missed on Giannis? Was it that hard to see his vast potential? And for Kelly Olynyk (whom I’ve never been much of a fan for)!! He missed Rudy Gobert in that draft too. Also disappointing that in 2016 he picked Gershon and Ante Zizic over Pascal Siakim. Yeah, that draft was a wasted draft, and by that I mean we had so many picks, but there weren’t much to choose from. After Yabusele, the only players worth mentioning are Siakam and Brogdon. And it seems Danny was intent on drafting international players so he could free up roster spots. Much happier with his recent picks. Romeo could turn out to be a quality starter, and Nesmith and Pritchard could one day be at that level too.

I always thought (with no evidence) that Yabu was Danny's attempt at finding a Draymond clone. If I remember correctly, the pick was made at the height of GS's run.

He messed up on Draymond too If Ainge doesn’t want to miss out on another Draymond, he better draft Scottie Barnes this coming summer.

Jalen sure looked good enough to be a #2 in the season opener. Let's see if he can do it consistently.

I like how Jaylen fills in for Tatum when Jayson’s shots aren’t falling. But in the 4th is when Tatum takes the reins.

I would be glad to have 3 JB and Taters on my squad. Finding some defense, is the key.

So Jaylen took over the scoring load in the first half of this game versus Memphis, pouring in 26 pts. He’s been a scoring machine to start the season.
Ok, I think Jaylen is trying to tell me something.

With Jaylen scoring 42 tonight, I guess Tatum is now our No. 2 scorer.

JB, Taters and Walker. Scorers Anything else is bonus. Defense and speed will make things flow to the rim...
