Shhhh, don’t go spreading the word.
Let someone else take Mikal before us. And Young also.

He just screams stat filler across the board. I think I'd go with him at our 8-9 pick right now

Maybe Miles Bridges will be a perennial All-Star. Maybe he'll be absolute trash. I don't know.

I do know that how he played against the Bucknell…Buckaroos is not going to be what determines that.

Keep an eye on Jontay Porter. Yahoo has him going to Chicago with the Pels pick.

So the hyped up bigs in Ayton and Bamba have gone fishing. Nice.

Both the Porter brothers having a rough go at it tonight. Hopefully that helps with depressing their stock.

I’m not sure he’s a pro but Jairus Lyles of UMBC looks like the best future pro on the floor tonight. I’d give this guy a summer league look.

Yes, so far Jr looks a little lost, still early.

Draft Jairus Lyles with the 8th pick

I've waited forever to see a 16 beat a 1, could it be tonight?

Main difference is the bigs have an ok to not bad supporting cast.

Now I'm rooting for the underdogs...Vincent Edwards and Keita Bates-Diop.

Jairus Lyles is a legend

Ayton-Flamed out in first round. Old school player in new school league. A dinosaur not condusive to winning at current level or next level.

Doncic-Certified bricker and chucker trom long range.Not athletic, doesnt have a position.

Porter Jr-Injured.

JJ-Not even the best player on his team.Offensive output is at a mediocre level. Cant stay on the court because is a hack.

Trae Young-Bad player. Turns the ball over at an alarming rate while having poor percentages from the field and being a defensive sieve at a sub nba level.

Marvin Bagley- Considered soft. Plays the same position as our top prospect. As far as strength he is the durant of power forwards. Another guy you got to create for. Doesnt look like an nba center because of softness.

Mo Bamba-One dimentional player.

Good grief , i can totally see a GM not wanting one of these guys in the top 7

Leslie Forman · Post #1918 » by **Leslie Forman** » Sat Mar 17, 2018 3:55 am

DeAndre Hunter - the most valuable player in the history of college basketball

Sounds about right. With Sexton and Young as outside chances.

I think so. Dunn needs to develop a 3pt shot or finish better at the rim. A spacer like Young is valuable on the offensive end.

I've been toying with the idea of playing Young at PG and Dunn at SF. I think Dunn is versatile enough to play SF. I'm too lazy to check the stats right now, but by gut feeling Dunn's 3pt shot has improved.

Best case would be that Markkanen and LaVine are the primary scorers, Young the primary playmaker/secondary scorer, and Dunn secondary playmaker/scorer. Add a center who can make inside out passes and finish at the rim, and our offence should be set. Defensively this setup would be cringy with one (or two) +d players and two -d players, but you can't always have everything...

Isn't Dunn too short to play the SF position? At least long term. I don't think he could guard LeBron, Durant, Otto Porter, Tatum, Covington, George, etc. All 6' 8" or taller.

Nwaba may be the better starter next to Young
