Great, but so Hawks at the same time, getting the top pick in a weak draft

Alex Sarr looks pretty good. I like Clingan, too.

It's great for sure, but would have better to get the top pick in some of the previous draft... and with the bad trades that were made since two years, not sure if we will pick the best player in this draft...

The problem is that even if we need a better C to improve, the C spot in not the most problematic.
We need to stop SGs, which we can't with a PG (Murray) defending on SGs, and the SF/PF have to be improved more than C, even if Jalen is improving a lot.

The Magic fans thought the same thing 2 years ago when there was no clear #1.

Go Hawks!! It was a big shock to see this but I'm happy for your team. Everyone says its a weak draft but better to get the best chance out of 58 potential players (2 picks are forfeited) than further down.

Be prepared for the dumb rumors that we should trade the #1 for Kevin Durant and some 50 year old. Maybe even 60 year olds.

Maybe even Bradley Beal
