I just think he'll be another Lou Williams, which isn't bad per se

Perhaps not, but seeing that name, my first reaction was "Who?"

Two time 6th man of the year award winner. Perhaps about to be three.

Well that doesn't suck.
My son knows all the NBA players. As you can see, I do not.

I just read the summary on Carsen Edwards, and I see he is referred to as Lou Williams-esque.

So...the Celtics pick 20 times in the first, is that it?

That's about as much as Bulls fans can hope for.

Some of these picks make me wonder if teams are deciding to tank WITH their head-scratching selections.

Damn...the Cavs traded up twice to create the dream draft I would kill for.
Garland and K.Porter Jr.
Well done to their new GM. Killed it. Owned it. And made everyone drafting before, after, and during their selections look very very stupid.

The Bulls took an offensive player that can't defend today's wings.
A combo guard with short arms and small hands...which are the knocks on White. Its just that long arms matter, and big hands matter, in todays NBA.
He is a questionable passer, decision maker, and defender. 6th man is correct for him also.
Both White and Edwards are bigger than Lou Williams are they not?

How is it that teams get 5 minutes to make their pick, and players are getting selected every 20 minutes?
I am peaking at the selections, as if it means anything, as I watch the Cubs.

Apparently Bol Bol has shit all over him.
Not only has he fallen to the second round, now Centers are being picked (3 of first 4 in 2nd) and he still isn't drafted.

His weight and injury concern teams. Dude can ball. He has to get heavier and stronger.

Like father, like son. Skinny as a rail.
At this point, as close as he is to Bulls' pick, I hope they get him. And know they won't.

Maybe it’s just me, but maybe Coby White would be the ideal Hoiberg PG.

Probably right. Plays at a fast pace. But I think he translates well to the NBA.

If someone is drafted by GarPax now, it probably means the opposite

I don't want to hate too much...I think White adds value to the team. At best he could be a Jerry Stackhouse.
But the center they drafted in the second round...
put it this way...
The next 3 centers drafted after him and Taco Fall will all have more impactful careers. Dude they got is as worthless as Felicio in the modern league.
I just don't understand these guys. They probably see Yakim Noah or some shit.
from ESPN
"- Motor fluctuates. Doesn't like physicality on either end of the floor. Allows duck-ins. Doesn't always find a body on the defensive glass. Blends in at times.
- Defensive fundamentals are still a work in progress. Not the perimeter defender his tools suggest.
- Limited to mostly finishes and offensive rebounds to score. Not a reliable playmaker or scorer at this stage.
Post-Draft Analysis
Chicago added some frontcourt depth with explosive Arkansas sophomore Daniel Gafford, another center who saw his stock fall during the pre-draft process due to the diminishing interest around the NBA in big men in this mold."
They could have had the shooter Golden state has been grooming for 5 years. They could have had the longest wingspan in history in Bol Bol, or they could have had the more refined and higher basketball IQ in Taco Fall....and at least throw something crazy at people...
instead they get a bum as worthless in this league as Felicio.I just don't understand.
Everyone else is passing on players in his "mold" for a fucking reason guys. Why don't we get that reason?
