Liddell and Ty Ty the big sliders unless I missed one of them going.


This isn’t surprising to me. Liddell a second rounder.

Is moore being projected as a point guard then? Also is it possible we're taking people that San Antonio told us they wanted as part of the trade for Murray?

Moore did seem to be a good rebounder.

Connelly definitely drafts differently than Rosas. Instead of going for the home run every time, Connelly is going for high floor guys.

For those who don't like our picks that's your prerogative. However, calling them reaches just does not fit the facts.

Connolly talked about get on base vs home run.
This is the part of the draft where its smarter to make the get on base pick, and Moore is that.
Very versatile, can shoot, defend, rebound, pass. Reminds me of the Tyus Jones pick Flip made, turned into a pretty decent role player.
Seems to be a high BBQ guy.

Like the pick, not necessarily the trade up. Have to see what exactly those 2nds we gave up are and if we still have 40,48,50,
because there are some players I definitely like there. Give me Alondes WIlliams and a legit PF.

Lot of guys out there that we could take a swing on, or still a few guys that have a high floor and could come right in and help out.

So, is Memphis moving on from Tyus Jones, then?

Was hoping he would fall to second round wolves picks.

Tyus is better than Tyty.

sometimes guys just get in wrong situations in college

I"m intrigued by Moore, but didn't give him any thought at all before now. He looks like he kinda fills the box score which is interesting.

Jaden McDaniels is our current PF. Maybe KAT can move to the PF if he ever shares the court with Kessler.
