Lunden? Or Kimberly?

Got to head to Twitter for that. Eric Zhang is your man.

I had never heard of this guy untill today. 2JjpUBe73N0?si=3FZMyeNUWFi1VZVK He seems like everything we are looking for. A tall, 3 level scorer, PG that can create for himself and others. Why isn't he mentioned more as a lottery pick? Has anyone seen this guy play?

I'll be the first to admit that my opinions are based on reading scouting reports and watching highlights... and for this reason my personal board/opinions aren't worth much (and I recognize as much). Kentucky is the only team I saw a few full games of. But, since no one asked, this is my...

It wasn’t scamming. Not going to entertain this low IQ nonsense further.

Seems like it. If there are no trades, I see the draft panning out this way, so far: 1-Atl: Sarr. 2-Was: Risacher. 3-Hou: Sheppard. 4-SAS: Castle. 5-Det: Buzelis. 6-Cha: Clingan/Williams/Holland/Knecht (maaaaybe Topic or Dillingham) 7-Por: Williams/Holland/Knecht/Salaun (definitely not a...

I'm in the same boat here. The only thing that leans me to Garland is you know what he brings to the team, Dilly COULD be Garland. So I guess it'll really depend on if the FO would rather gamble with the money or the draft pick. I guess realistically the safer bet would be drafting dillingham. If...

As I said, he's a low IQ player, but I wouldn't take anything that happened over the past few months again him. It's amazing that he even decided to play considering all the awful stuff happening with his family. Everyone would be affected. When KD asked for a trade from Brooklyn, I thought...

"Throw it down bigman!!!!!"

If you go back and watch the 17 points in 3 minutes barrage by Wemby, it was mainly fueled by, missed wide open 3s from MPJ. I hate his health history, and the fact that once the ball touches him, it never comes out again. There was a video out a year or two ago with just Denver teammates...

That’s a re-tweet of a guy who thought Houston won last years draft with Amen and Cam. Did either of them win ROTY? First team All D? Get All NBA votes? I think we know who won last years draft.

You are forgetting the most important need in "best archetypes": shooting.

Yes, I see that last year isn't fully guaranteed. I think I'd still rather keep those funds clean in case a real possibility comes thru, but I guess his contract could be used for that, too. Overall, I'd want assets to absorb his contract more than anything and I'm not sure that's happening.

We’re going to have to disagree on this, because I don’t believe that a “reach” is even possible at 19, and I don’t believe in busts at that slot, either,since so many back half first rounders don’t get to their second contracts. It’s kind of the expected outcome.

I really hope Risacher is available at 4, that would simplify things a lot for PATFO's drafting process. Just get the only 6'9" ish forward that can shoot at 4, and then let the others decide which guard you are gonna take at 8 (Sheppard, Dillingham, Castle or Topic).

EVERYONE on the UConn squad was a PG, even Clingan. Part of that system is reading and reacting. If there’s a pin down screen, and the defender cheats over it, even the center has to react to the back cut, and hit the cutter. The fact that you took time to type that statement makes me think you...

I'd rather draft a Patty Mills than a Blake Wesley, tbh. At least the former wouldn't be a complete waste of a lottery pick, tbh.

I saw this thread and thought maybe op ate late night at Taco Bell or something

I'll bet Dillingham scores more than 20 ppg at some point in his career. Look at how he stacks up to other Kentucky guards of similar stature: https://www.tankathon.com/players/compare?players=rob-dillingham--tyrese-maxey--immanuel-quickley--de-aaron-fox--malik-monk Fox and Maxey score well...

Granted it was a very small sample size, but I starting digging into some of Castle's high school film to see what he looked like running point. While he played "point guard" and showed some decent passing chops and iq, he's not what I would call a pass-first guy. Mostly, he's looking to score for...

Horseshit.

There's a difference between drafting a bad shooter but that you know has a big chance of improving in that area, and someone that was given 15 ft of cushion in the NCAA tournament by opposing coaches. Also, context matters. If we hadn't recently drafted tens of prospects with iffy shooting that...

Oh, yeah, now I remember.

The more I think about it, I think Risacher, Castle and Sarr will go 1-2-3. Risacher has the power of recency going for him, he has had some good games lately in the playoffs. Even though Washington could use a big man, they also could use a point guard and Castle says that's what he wants to...

Someone just pointed out that Salaun has blocked 10 shots in 51 games this season. That's incredibly concerning. A player that size should accidentally block more than 10 shots.

Shaq was lazy but don’t change history shall we?

Each prospect just has so many question marks tbh. It's a unique draft in that sense. Literally every prospect in the lottery has major flaws/weaknesses, which makes it difficult to project not only their fit, but whether or not they'll even be serviceable role players. Should be a fun draft night...

That's the entire point. If he was on 20 million a year instead of 35, Nuggets would never consider moving him. He's low IQ, offers no playmaking whatsoever, but he's a 6'10 high volume 3pt shooter and a very good rebounder. Not a great defender, but having Wemby behind him instead of Jokic would...

The 20 ppg goal is completely arbitrary. I'd much rather have a guy who defends and puts up something like 16/7/4 with good shooting percentages and good impact over a guy who wants to be the star of the show. Anyone joining the Spurs has to recognize that Wemby is the #1 guy.
