At first I was meh about the pick, but the more I read about the kid and his background the more I liked him. High character guy(and team captain lol!). It's a gamble sure, but one could argue his lack of game performance was partially a result of a lack of coaching. You can't teach talent, but you can teach technique. The question is, are they willing to learn and work their asses off. I think this kid might be.

The pick that would have really made me scream was Decastro. Sorry, I just don't believe in taking a guard that early. In the 20s sure(which is where he went), but almost top 10? No way....

I would have liked a tradeback but didn't think it was very likely without a marquee player left.
