    It depends on whether or not we spend in free agency to field a competitive team.

    We own our picks outright for two consecutive seasons and we squeaked by this draft (lol @ OKC). We got a two year window to go for the best draft odds and stack talent.

    I prefer "targeted rebuild for the next two seasons".

    Just checked in and I'm lost

    Picking Horford over Beal for championship building when Horford has
    never won a championship?

    Dwight Howard has won a championship, wouldn't that make more sense?

    Oh well....I'm staying out of it.

    Where's the fun in that, jump in with your own weird comparisons.

    I'm taking calmer longer Alan Iverson over stretchy, more shooty, calmer Draymond Green.

    I'm #TeamGreen but what the heck, let's flip the script for the fun of it.

    Give me Mobley (Durant) over Jalen Green (Sleepy Floyd) any day!!

    You are right.....it does feel good to act up

    Feel ashamed I can't nod my head wisely, knowing what Sleepy Floyd's game was like.

    No I don't seem to be doing that because I never the roster was not good, show me one example of me implying this.

    My entire point is that he has elevated his teams and the others have not, I don't think he was surrounded by great talent in Atlanta but they won at a high level while Lavine and Beal have struggled to make the playoffs in a weak east.

    I am not saying the rosters where equal but if those type of players are transcendent they should at least be making the playoffs consistently.

    My bad I was wrong about them losing in the 2nd round that was the next year.

    That team with 4 allstars or 3 out 4 allstars in 4 years got beat in the 1st round twice and lost in the 2nd round in the east.

    You can't rebuild in one season. Unless you can clear the whole roster for two superstars.

    Wait wut?

    Has Beal won a championship?

    And nobody said they would pick Horford over Beal for a championship.:rolleyes:

    WTF does Howard have to do with anything is there a player like Howard in this draft, has anybody compared Mobley to Howard?

    How the hell are you staying out of it when you are in it and claiming things that never happened.

    Don't get scared now.

    If he wasn't surrounded by great talent in Atlanta, then he wasn't great talent, so the whole point is mute. He wasn't better than them. They were all the same. Millsap was the best player on their 60 win team.

    Worthless conversation.

    First mistake was attributing any sort of credence to whatever Nate Duncan says. Guy is a buffoon.

    needs any more stirring.
