    Now that the shock has worn off, I’m thrilled. Perfect fit next to Green and Sengun.

    “Forever Humble” except for draft night.

    I think I took all of Jabari’s happiness.

    Some interesting insight here:
    https://open.spotify.com/episode/7zCByjn66nwmDgZKZsCKex?si=bc88bdcee4b14a90

    They talk about how he could be Ryan Anderson 2.0 if he can't improve his ball handling and foot speed. Per Synergy he took jumpshots at an insane rate.

    (Note: I am NOT poo-pooing this pick. I just like hearing all of the takes.)

    His team told him not to work out with us because he won’t drop be low number one or number two, slow realization is hitting that he got played and he rejected the one team that’s going to draft him. I’d be feeling like Poopoo too

    Smith does strike me as a hard worker. His intensity is going to be fantastic.

    Jabari thought he was going #1 and didn’t workout with the Rockets because they had the third pick. That’s why he looks mad. This isn’t Rockets related. Assuming we’re keeping him, we’re about to get one mad dude that’s going to be determined to prove some people wrong.
