I don't know.  Bebe and Noah have kind of ended up being the same right?

Final result: chicken dinner

I meant prime Noah though, big miss from me. I projected Len's nimbers extrapolated from his backup stats: 17pts, 1.5 blks, and 8+ rebs via 27 mins. Oooph, yikes, and ouch

It's easy to say I was right, so let's try the opposite: draft, trades, FAcy, record, etc.

I'll start:

I was wrong about the Hawks not bringing back Dedmon. I thought Len would be able to fill the starting Center role. He is clearly best suited to be a backup.

Dedmon's play on the court and his voice in the locker room on this young team was needed.

You were also DEAD wrong in not wanting to trade Bembry and Len for Jaylen Brown. Oops oopsieeeee!!!

I was wrong about Len, he’s better suited as a backup center.

I was wrong about hunter, he wasn’t as NBA ready as I thought he’d be coming out of college.

I was wrong about Evan Turner I thought as a bigger point guard he’d be able to at the very least take advantage of smaller defenders (point guards)...in the post and get some decently easy buckets even despite the injury.

 

i was wrong about chandler parsons ! So so wrong ...smh...I thought he would be able to come into the season and stand in the corners and hit 3s on kick outs from Trae a few minutes per game . Never expected any real player movement or defense but definitely thought ok he can stand in the corner and knock down a three....in reality he hit the floor and could barely run up and down the court ! I said bullshit this mofo can  barely run ...got dammit

I was wrong about Trae Young. Thought he wouldn't be good enough to make an all star game. Biggest win (loss) for me of the season.

I was also wrong about Trae not making the All-Star team. I thought he would be close, but possibly get snubbed.

I am 1\3 of the way wrong about Bruno being the best out of the 3 rookies. But this is a marathon, not a sprint. Let's see if Bruno can significantly close the gap in Year 2 of the 3 year prediction.
