I like Rabb and Giles now dont get me wrong I also like Lauri and Swan I just cant see those lumbering bodies working out with Hassan

[Cmon_Son-_-]

I'm not opposed to Miles Bridges as a potential Spo Ball 4.

Hes definitely gone before our pick unfortunately.

[DayofMourning]

JJ having a big game UNC.

Yeah, only way he's still on the board when we pick is if we don't make the PO & get top-3.

Giles is slipping so far that whoever ends up drafting him is likely to get the biggest steal of the draft. Unless his knees are hot garbage he will be a good role player, at minimum. Sliding as badly as he has will provide that chip he needs to have on his shoulder, to drive him to be the best he can.

Kansas destroyed Purdue's frontcourt, just ran away went the match-up. Thought Josh Jackson was going to get all he could handle with Swanigan but Kansas just sealed off the paint.

I don't think Swanigan has much potential as a 4 (Iron-knee considering I don't like Bam for being a 6'9 center, but Swan has an NBA 5;s winspan), it's possible for him to turn into a decent 4 tho. I don't care about fit with Hassan tbh, that's the last criteria I hope we explore with pick. I want Swanigan as a back-up 5 and Hassan insurance... especially since Willie Reed will likely be gone to the Warriors or some place.

Giles still looks terrible, wouldn't mind gambling if FO wanted to but drafting him on namesake while there's still better prospects on the board's not a good look imo. I still want to trade Hassan so I think my preference is partial to that, so I'll rank all the C's separate from the other tweener prospects

Everyone else

OG
Semi
Leaf
Lydon
Hartenstein
Kennard

C's

Swanigan
Z.Collins
Hartenstein
Patton

[Heatle]

Go BPA. If that's a C or PG, so be it.

[DayofMourning]

This UK vs UCLA game is VERY exciting right now. Back and forth. Boys getting buckets.

[QUIZ]

Monk showing who's better.

[DayofMourning]

Monk showing who's better.

Lillard-esque???

Also, Fox has been a complete beast. Attacking and defending like a stud.

This Florida-Wisconsin game lived up to its billing and then some. Wow. Some great basketball tonight. Hayes may be available in the second round. I wish we had a pick.

I was 6 for 8 in the sweet 16. The only games I missed was the one I switched at the last moment (Xavier to Arizona) and Butler over UNC, which looks pretty stupid now.

Kansas vs Kentucky in the final, right?

Florida (4) vs S. Carolina (7): I would have picked S. Carolina, because of their performance over Duke and Baylor, but Florida’s play in OT may push them forward. S. Carolina is still the safe bet. They are a better team and have beaten better teams on the way to the elite-8. So, I’m taking S. Carolina in this SEC battle. They split their games during the season, a close victory for the Gamecocks in SC and a Florida victory by a wide margin in Gainesville. This will be a hard-fought game.

Gonzaga (1) vs Xavier (11): I’m going with Xavier, even though they were ranked 11th and Gonzaga was ranked 1st. Gonzaga just didn’t look that impressive against West Virginia. They were even outrebounded and had more turnovers. Xavier, on the other hand, kept Markaanen to 9 points. Bluiett raised his game, and the team shot at over 53%. It should be a close game, though.

Kansas (1) vs Oregon (3): Both teams are excellent. I like Mason+Josh Jackson over Dillon Brooks and company though. Kansas’s attack will be very hard to contain by the Ducks.

UNC (1) vs Kentucky (2): I didn’t have UNC beating Butler, so now I feel like I’ve underestimated them. That was an impressive victory, but we just saw Kentucky defeat UCLA too. UNC was first in the ACC. Kentucky was first in the SEC. I am biased. I think Kentucky will win, but I’d like to see UNC upset them.

Final 4:

South Carolina vs Kansas

I'll take Kansas over Kentucky.

[Bishop45]

At least we finally get a reason for the opinionated Frankie Vision video's, not mad at him

Watch on YouTube

Good game, Leaf had few moments early too. Hope he doesn't punk out on the draft

[KingDavid]

Lonzo is going to have make major adjustments to his shot. He has brilliant court vision but he will have a hard time scoring until he can hit shots going right.

All these guys better hope they're the ones selected by Boston.

Gom, I believe the Final Four is East vs. West on one side, and Midwest vs. South on the other, so your Final Four would be

South Carolina vs Xavier

Oh, man. That's too bad. UK vs Kansas would be a better final.

[DayofMourning]

Kansas just needs to give the ball to JJ and GTFO of the way.

[DayofMourning]

Josh Jackson making the plays that're keeping the Jayhawks in the game. Boy is a rock.
