For the Bucks Mudiay is the perfect guy, looking forward something like,

Mudiay
Knight
Antetokounmpo
Parker
Sanders

Looks fantastic.

FIFY. But yeah, I'd say a good 75-80% of this board is on the Mudiay wagon. He'd be great.

I don't know if he's good or not, no one else does either. He's being scouted based off o an f U-19 tournaments from 2011. Dario Saric started getting rotation minutes with the Croatian NT two years ago as an 18 year old. Every coach Hezonja has decides not to play him.

The knock on him is that he's immature and kind of a chucker (aka not much of a "team player"). Those are things that aren't going to mesh well with Euro style basketball.

It certainly isn't for lack of talent, the guy is a prototype athletic two guard.

I agree, I just think if he's a game changing talent he should be getting rotation minutes by now (which he's finally starting to the last couple weeks in the Spanish league). The notation that European coaches refuses to play all young players is false.

The only problem with that ^ is that means we have payed Knight at least 8 mil or so to be a make shift SG when even he doesn't think he is anything other than a PG. To be honest i'd rather go with Mayo at SG next year as an 8 mil expiring or Middleton as the starting 2 than Knight.

Are there any bigs that can pass and or shoot in this draft class? It seems that Kidd is trying to install an offense built around a Marc Gasol-type player.

Porzingis or Okafor? I haven't seen enough of either to know if these are strengths of theirs.

To me, it all comes down to Sanders. If Sanders can't replicate his 2013 dominance, I go with Okafor.

Okafor would most likely be that passing big man. I still think I would take Mudiay and Towns over him though. I'll have to watch Okafor closely this year. He definitely surprised me with adding some muscle and toning up a bit. Looks a lot more imposing than his high school tape would suggest.

I'd be a bit disappointed if the goal is a draft pick in three years.

Some highlights of Mudiay in his first CBA game.

Mudiay looked absolutely awful until he threw the oop to Yi. Yes that Yi.

Hard to blame the dude in his first game out of high school playing against pros. Other than the god awful airballed 3 footer and two missed free throws.

BallinBucks420 · Post #76 » by **BallinBucks420** » Mon Nov 3, 2014 4:45 am

@ETSportando: Emmanuel Mudiay close to a triple double in second game with Guangdong: 29 points, 9 rebounds and 7 assists (and 4 steals).

Mudiay's line: 29 points (9/12 2P, 3/5 3P, 2/3 FT), 7 assists, 6 turnovers, 9 rebounds, 4 steals in 33 minutes

Larry (apparently) playing up to his 2012-13 form is going to cause an interesting dilemma come draft time.

If we're sitting with a top 5 pick, and Mudiay is off the board, do you take Okafor, Towns, Alexander, or Porzingis if you're essentially set in the front-court?

You always take BPA, but who would be the best fit with Parker and Sanders theoretically manning the 4 & 5 for the near future? There is an unfortunate lack of guard star power in this draft class.

Mudiay and Parker can be our poor mans Westbrook and Durant.
