If we believe this, then I assume it was Toppin

We picked an ok player...how underwhelming...just...FFFFFF....sigh...
Everyone said that about Cam Johnson too.
Cam is fine, but let's all be honest. He wasn't the best player available at #11.

Which seems strange they thought he’d fall. Knicks have been connected to him for awhile. Deni was the one who slid. I wonder if it was him. I’d take Smith over Deni though.

So was Flex alluding to Deni almost dropping to us and would he have been the pick? Seems odd.
And KOC is well liked and regarded around NBA Twitter and he tends to favor the Suns but most every mock I saw had Smith going 15-20. He wasn't a 2nd rounder.
EDIT: Oh yea, he prob meant Toppin but anyone paying any attention knew he wasn't getting past the Knicks.

Sam Vecenie had him as a 2nd round grade. Kevin had good things to say about the pick

In no form way or shape a 15-10 PF/C with defense and a 3pt shot is a second rounder.

Cole Anthony to Magic and Isaiah Stewart to Pistons.
Thunder on the clock. Pokusevski?

Buying a low pick for Desmond Bane would be awesome.

He basically thinks he can shoot on offense and block shots on defense. Says he’s stiff athletically and can’t guard the perimeter. Two foot jumper who needs space and time to leap.

Yes, he is not the most fluid athlete, but the skill is there. I've seen many on here clamoring for basketball players instead of athletes who happen to play basketball.

He looks fluid and skilled without being a monster athlete
