The guy definitely doesn't like to play conservatively.


Porter Jr
Bol Bol

That was his last 2 picks so he typically goes for high ceiling higher risk picks.

I'm surprised people wouldn't be excited to have Wiseman fall to us.

To me, he seems like a better prospect than someone like Marvin Bagley out of college. He's got skill and more importantly, LEGIT size. He's not someone that's a little skinnier or shorter than what you'd want for a C.

I think we need to see more with Wiseman before we judge him fully. He hasn't played in nearly 10 months.

Right now it looks like the Bulls narrowed down prospects on this board are

Deni
Hayes
Okongwu
Ball
Edwards (unlikely to drop)
Wiseman

and then Haliburton/Vassell if we drop.

6 prospects at #4, 2-3 won't be available at #4.

For me personally, I have no clear pick I want. I am waiting for predraft workouts, measurements before I make a decision.

The only risk for Porter was injury risk. Which was a big risk. But at #14 it's easier to do then at #4. This year the choices that fit would be Ball and Wiseman but they are more development issues not injury issues.

Okongwu please.


No doubt Okongwu has Bam like upside in his game and physical ability. If he can come into predraft workouts and show major improvements in his offensive game, surely he'll move up into possibly the Top 4.

Shooting predraft workouts are quite important for these prospects this year. This draft has weak and unproven shooters in the lottery. Prospects like Deni, Okongwu, Wiseman, Ball, Okoro will rise if they demonstrate improvements in shooting and their offensive games in general.

People need to stop calling this a weak draft. Literally, every year people say that there are 3-5 actual franchise players that come out of it.

Just because you don't see a surefire legend doesn't make the draft weak, it means a team actually has to work to develop players. Which is you know, their job anyway.

I like him a lot for the Bulls. But you have to move Lauri in that scenario cause he's not going to help as a bench guy with WCJ, Gafford and Wiseman needing minutes.

I love Deni because he is the perfect fit for both our needs on offense and from a positional standpoint.
Wiseman though, he changes everything about your defense and rebounding from day 1.

This is a weak draft.

Just because Jimmy Butler turned out to be an All-NBA player as a late pick doesn't suddenly mean he was an incredible prospect. Just because Josh Jackson completely flamed out doesn't mean he was a terrible prospect.

If the players in this draft actually end up being great, well you could say that it was actually a good draft class years from now. But as a draft itself, this is one of the most :dontknow: drafts I've ever seen. There's no way in hell we're talking about Anthony Edwards or LaMelo Ball as a possible #1 in a "strong" draft.

Yes, that is what someone would say about a prospect that was absolutely awful in Euroleague.

But really, I don't give a sh*t about the stats. His tape simply isn't that impressive. Neither is Hayes. Don't like either of them, frankly. Just a couple more Markkanen/Carter type low ceiling guys IMO.

I reserve the right to completely change my mind if Karnisovas actually drafts one of them. There must be something they saw that we can't that indicates a higher ceiling then. I feel pretty strongly that he won't, though.


As I said - some people are just decided to ignore stats of the league he played most. Why do those people even look stats of any other player in draft? None of them except Hayes (but his team was demolished in EuroCup which much weaker than Euroleague) played in better league than I-BSL...

And tape.. Everyone has their own impressions from tapes


Yeah but Hayes played well in EuroCup, shot almost 40% from 3 and 90% FT. Seems like he played up to competition, avg'ing 13pts and 9 assists against Euroleague teams Berlin and Munich in BBL. Small sample sizes all around, but what he put on tape looks good to me (ie I see high floor / high ceiling as an NBA playmaker)... and talking about age, KH is one of the youngest in draft, 7 months younger than Deni. Really young dude with massive improvements in the last year...

As for Deni, I agree that he is the most overhyped prospect this year. I simply don't see the athleticism (he's a two-foot jumper and stiff), or shooting (his FT % should be setting off universal alarm bells), or IQ (I see a lot of straight-line drives to the basket and jumping in the air looking for bailout pass (though I give him some credit for making this work decently... just wouldn't call it IQ / game slowed down for him)).

I can't fathom how he's leading the OP poll right now. To me, Hayes is simply way better at the game of basketball. Hoping he's there at 4.

It's projected to be a weak draft but that doesn't mean it will be. 2019 draft was also heavily criticized as a weak draft outside the Top 3 (Zion/RJ/Morant) but turns out the draft had plenty of star upside prospects outside the top 3.

We can find these type of prospects in this draft as well.

2012 was considered a weak draft, 2013 as well, 2015 was said to be semi weak due to no stand out #1 until late, same with 2017

Conversely, 2014, 2016 & 2018 were considered strong.

Each draft has produced nearly the same amount of quality and almost exactly the same amount of franchise altering talent.

No duh. That doesn't mean the top prospects in this draft are actually good prospects right now, though, which is what I'm trying to say. This is absolutely a bad pre-hindsight draft.

MrFortune3 wrote:Each draft has produced nearly the same amount of quality and almost exactly the same amount of franchise altering talent.

Well that is just completely, utterly untrue. I'd like to see someone explain how 2000 and 2013 are "almost exactly" as qualitatively good as '84 or '96 or '03.

2000 and 2013 were considered the two worst drafts going in that I can remember, and they are easily the two worst drafts that have actually happened in recent times. People were absolutely right to call those two drafts garbage. 2020 is the first draft since those that has been considered as poor as them.

Maybe this draft exceeds expectations, maybe it doesn't. But for now, before a game is played by anyone, it looks absolutely awful.

Also produced John Collins, De'Aaron Fox, Jonathan Isaac, Lonzo Ball, Lauri Markkanen, Zach Collins, Jarrett Allen, OG Anunoby, Kyle Kuzma, Dillon Brooks, Luke Kennard, Dennis Smith Jr., Harry Giles, Malik Monk, Josh Hart, Semi Ojeleye, Monté Morris, Markelle Fultz, Thomas Bryant, Dwayne Bacon

2018 - 2 all stars
Luka Dončić(ROY), Trae Young
Also produced DeAndre Ayton, Marvin Bagley III, Jaren Jackson Jr., Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Collin Sexton, Wendell Carter Jr., Michael Porter Jr., Kevin Huerter, Miles Bridges, Mitchell Robinson, Landry Shamet, Donte DiVincenzo, Josh Okogie, Aaron Holiday, Jalen Brunson, Gary Trent Jr.

2018 and 2019 are almost unfair to list due to the short span of time. I listed 2018 but won't for 2019.


Thanks for listing this out. 2000 still stands out as an amazingly terrible, all time worst draft class (within this time period at least). Those 3 all stars are certainly low grade "all stars" with Magloire often mentioned as the "worst all star" of all time.

2013 actually turned out really well with 1 absolute elite talent with a couple more legit stars. It's just that outside of one guy, the top 9 of the draft looks really REALLY bad (as predicted going into that hilariously unknown 1st overall pick that became Anthony Bennett). Which is a bit of the fear IMO with this class, albeit for slightly different additional reasons (i.e. COVID/lack of current scouting). Its far from a guarantee that one of the top 5 or 8 picks will be better than one of 11 thru 29 (as is often the case in "good" drafts)

The guy definitely doesn't like to play conservatively.


Porter Jr
Bol Bol

That was his last 2 picks so he typically goes for high ceiling higher risk picks.


They werent even risky. mostly health issues but they esp had high ceilings not typically low floor.
Lamelo will be a future superstar Bull. Book it. Lavar for president!

2000 was worst... but 2002 weak (Jay Williams injury a part of that), 2006 and 2014 too, 2010 and 2013 a little better. As compared to the drafts with Lebron, Paul/Deron, Gasol, Curry/Harden, etc. Huge swings in both top level and depth of talent.

To me, he seems like a better prospect than someone like Marvin Bagley out of college. He's got skill and more importantly, LEGIT size. He's not someone that's a little skinnier or shorter than what you'd want for a C.


Yeah, really wasn't excited about Bagley either, lol
Constantly underwhelmed by the Bulls.

Just because you don't see a surefire legend doesn't make the draft weak, it means a team actually has to work to develop players. Which is you know, their job anyway.


It's apparently top weak. But I agree, there's like fifteen prospects that I'd be pretty happy to have in our roster (not necessarily at #4, of course)

There is always talent to be found in the draft and you can always net a franchise player IF your team is about scouting, drafting and developing.
A high pick assures you nothing. It's the pre and post draft work that makes all of the difference. Players take more time than ever to develop into stars now. We are also about to see HS players back into the fold and others will skip college and go to the G-League for a year.

Scouting and development will be more important than ever.
