Get real. Everyone was shocked that Charlotte took Salaun at 6. Prior to the draft, taking him at 8 would have been considered high. No one would have thought to even consider doing a deal to get up to 6 to grab Salaun. You are talking as if everyone knew he would go at 6. No one did!!!

Back in 2016, I read an anonymous scouting report that stated the Spurs coaching staff considered Paul the best player in the league, ahead of Lebron, Durant and an emerging Steph. Their reasoning? "Chris Paul can go anywhere he wants, anytime he wants." I like Chris, but I thought this was a bit of a reach, until I realized those coaches had just been treated to front row seats of Chris snake dribbling his way through their defense in that epic 2015 series. Obviously Chris is a long ways removed from that player; hell, he's a pale shadow of the player that went to the Finals with Phoenix, But he's going to an organization that has always held him in reverence, and they're clearly hoping late career mentor CP will essentially be a player coach for them.
@harry.pottered13 күн бұрын

Juan Nuñez has been a Real Madrid youth star like Doncic. For years he has been the leader of the Spanish youth team and has won everything, as Wemby knows who has faced him many times. He is an organizing, creative point guard, and a good defender. In attack he is not bad, he simply needs a little more time to improve his shot, but if he played in the US he would have been chosen in the middle of the first round.
