Head Scratcher. Its all I can say. I can understand a 6th man from a college team loaded with McDonald's All-Americans. But a guy that didn't start at Florida State. C'mon Man.

Okorro was the pick to make if you’re going to draft a 3

eh...he could turn out to be ok. Who knows, he might develop like Jimmy Butler or Kawhi Leonard. Those guys came in the league without much offensively....but yea...that was a headscratcher for me too.

This pick was not inspiring, as if the ghost of GarPax bent us over one last time.

Just WTF?????????

No not really, but I know that the last player to be a lottery pick that high that didn't start on his college team didn't turn out too well. It Rarely ever happens and at #4 even in a week draft that is sketchy. Not to mention, We are sitting with a log jam at the PF position.

Apparently Pistons really wanted Patrick Williams so maybe we could have bled them some, but it wasn't much of a reach in terms of draft stock. I don't know much about the kid but i'll trust that the new FO knows what they are doing.

Maybe it helps that i wasn't really attached to anyone in this draft.

6th man of the year in the ACC, on a 25-6 team, that was probably going to get a #1 seed in the tournament, and he played the 4th most minutes on the team. But sure, because it didn't happen then it must be a bad decision now.

EDIT to ADD: FSU also ran a 10 deep rotation, and only had one player who averaged more than 30 minutes per game. This idea that he didn't start the game is worthless, because he was certainly there at the end of the game.
