Figure it out.
You have months and months to study these guys, how they would fit in with your team.
Just go out on a limb and take your guy.
This is one of the only times I ever remember looking at a top four like this and thinking I'd kind of be okay trading down to four.
Like if I was Utah too, and I couldn't decide, it's like, I might be okay moving backwards two spots and getting even more stuff.
If somebody was super excited about Peterson, but who's your favorite out of these four?
I landed there early February.
I watched these guys for a while and at some point it was like, what are we doing?
He's got to be the first pick.
Especially because you don't know what his body is going to look like five years from now.
He already looks like he's 26.
And you think about, you know, some of the guys like the Tatum, Jalen Brown, guys like that, how they grew into these adult bodies by the time they're 25, 26, 27, like the muscle he's going to put on, he can play their position.
By the way, Washington's taking him.
That's, that's how this is playing out.
They're going to take him.
And I don't.
For sure, and he joins a group.
And has that a big spotlight on him for a while?
It's the right pick.
You know, there's a piece of me wonders if Boozer also was the right pick for them.
