Rank the Young Core

BlackieMamba · Post #1 » by **BlackieMamba** » Wed May 24, 2017 4:37 pm

Rank the Young Core and draft picks in your opinion of most untouchable to least untouchable.

Considering all factors involved not only potential.
Factors such as: locker room presence/leadership, current contract, likelihood of them resigning after current deal expires, marketability, trade value, skill set compatible to Luke's system, etc.

IMO it goes as follows

1. Brandon Ingram
2. Larry Nance (My Favorite Player)
3. D'Angelo Russell
4. #2 Pick
5. 2019 1st Round Pick
6. Ivica Zubac
7. Jordan Clarkson
8. Julius Randle
9. #28 Pick

#2 > Russell > Ingram > Zubac = Randle = Nance > Clarkson

The rest don't matter. Its arguable if Clarkson and Nance can even be called young anymore, they are 25 and 24 respectively.

Ugh...i don't like trying to rate potential especially for a guy that's never played against NBA talent. So I'll go with your picks SANs the #2 pick.

If that's the case I'd have to put Ingram last. By all metrics, he was one of the 10 worst players in the league last year.

Yeah, I realized that after I posted. I was going to delete it but got lazy...ya got me :lol:

I think I just had a problem with a draft pick being number 1. But if he plays like KAT did then clearly it's fine

For me,

1 Russell
2 Ingram
3 #2 Pick (provided it's not Fultz)

I'm along these Lines but I like Nance Jr. at the 4

Brandon Ingram - Potenntial is high, needs to show more energy and passion.
#2 pick - Quarterback with lot of unselfish play and vision
Ivica Zubac - Excellent Hustle and plays D.
Larry Nance Jr. - Althletic and Plays D and Rebounds
D'Angelo Russell - Best Shooter - Below average D. Basketball is more than just shooting good
Jordan Clarkson - Gunner but plays D and has moments. Needs to understand Team play.
Julius Randle - Poor right handed player, Has good offensive moments but poor D. A must Trade before contract is up.
David Nwaba - Raw but very good D.
Tyler Ennis
Tarik Black
