Loved the Barn Burner long form interview with Conny that popped up today.

Draft specific, He said there's tons of opportunities to move up or down in this wild draft. No one knows how it gonna shake out. Said they don't really have a guaranteed list after Celebrini as to who they're not going to be able to draft, it's that wide open. Which will make teams picking high more open to moving around in the top ten.

Also inferred that they're trying to move up from 28th and with the pick haul in 2024 alone they have to bullets to do it.

Said he wants a center, centers always the top of the list but they'll have to see how it goes, like if their list says a dman is clearly better they'll go that way. Reiterated this draft is a crap shoot. Just doesn't know how it will go or who's gonna be there. He just knows they're getting a good player no matter what at 9.

He said he didn't think this draft was that deep but then as he got into it more after the season he thinks is a really good deep draft.

Edit: Tij stuff. Boomer asked is he a center. Conroy beat around the bush a bit but definitely didn't sound like he thinks Tij is a center.
