A Fleeting Moment of Importance

Sam Hinkie will take center stage tonight for his third draft at the helm of what he has single-handedly turned into the laughingstock of the NBA. He'll most likely have the opportunity to take a guy who could elevate the team a bit in the near term and provide a building block for the long term...or he could kick the can even further down the road and ensure yet another top pick for next summer...and the summer after that...and the summer after that. Rinse and repeat.

Nothing has changed for me concerning this draft. D'Angelo Russell should be the pick, and he should be the starting shooting guard from day one.
