Risacher is a good wing defender. You guys are way too down on him.

But we got Hunter already, right?

Its stan not stad there, @Hawkmoor

But you are right, if I am Trae right now, I be asking why they did this for, and I be asking for a trade right now.

And for maybe the first time, I would agree with Trae.

Welp… as predicted… it looks like the Spurs made us draft someone at 1 and now those 3 1sts are looking more valuable than if we drafted Sarr. Anyone who understands perspectives would’ve not trusted the Spurs and would’ve seen this coming from a mile away. Gosh I hope ZR proves me wrong, but this doesn’t look good.

Ngl, it feels like this is what happened.

Dude ain't coming here. Landry doesn't know how to negotiate. 

I hope that I can negotiate the price of my next home with a member of the Hawks front office. I might get them to sell me a 5k square foot home in Johns Creek with full butler service, a landscaping crew, a Bentley, with insurance and utilities paid for only $195k....

I'd rather have Risacher. If nothing else Hunter can be moved or come off the bench

Edey went 9. @KB21

The best thing I can say about Risacher is that I have high confidence he will be a contributing rotation player and you can’t have too many wings.  My worry is that I’m not sure he will be a good starter.

Thats the whole point.  You should want to gamble with Sarr's upside vs what Risacher would bring.  If you are wrong with Sarr, you are wrong.  Risacher might not be a better player than Hunter.

Somebody check on @KB21

I feel like it bodes well for this pick that there is a lot of hate 

[Sothron]

@NBASupes was right.  Edey was  a top ten pick.

Hunter is a better defender and shooter than Ris for now. Ris gonna be in Collipark

Haha, didn't he just lose a bet on that?  Show your face, @KB21

The Spurs only hope for Sarr was the Hawks.  They knew Washington wasn't gonna deal Sarr away.

Billy Knight pick, tell me I'm wrong.   Poor outcome for me but hope Rizz ready to work.

Is Cody his little brother?  Cool, if so.
