Re: 2019 Draft Prospect Watch Thread
We need to either tank or pray that we only win 30 games and somehow land the #1 pick. We need ZION

Re: 2019 Draft Prospect Watch Thread
Tankathon's current mock draft has us taking Keldon Johnson at 9 and Hachimura at 20, which would be incredible.

Re: 2019 Draft Prospect Watch Thread
We play too hard + talent level improved(Even though we lost Caris) for us want to tank.
Zion is very intriguing but I need to see more skills. He is an absolute freak of an athlete though. Very unique.
Can he play D at a high level? Can he shoot the 3 ball? What is his go-to move? ,etc.. many questions left.
I want to win as much as possible because I want Dlo and Fro and the rest to get used to winning as soon as possible.
That's the next step. We always bring it, play smart but we just lack the experience to close out games.
Teams like Cavs, Knicks, Hawks, Suns and Bulls are going to be losing A LOT of games which means at best we will have the 6th worse record.
We will probably be in the 7-15 range for our pick while DEN pick will be 18-25 range.
Hopefully Marks can work his magic.

That would not be a bad haul at all. I would still package both picks to try to sneak into the top 7.

Re: 2019 Draft Prospect Watch Thread
I'd like to see some more arc on that 3 point shot but everything else screams elite prospect.
He is pre back injury Larry Johnson on **** ing steroids with better ball handle and body control. The kid is a walking tank.
Organic tank for ZION

He works a reliable 3 ball into his game and he'll be a top 30 player in the league.

Easily. And on a marketing aspect, having a high upside West African/Japanese player on the Nets probably would make Yormark piss his pants in glee since the NBA is trying to make a solid dent in both of those markets.

If Shake had posted this I'd put money on it.

the Nets might mess around and wind up with both Bol Bol and Rui Hachimura

Re: 2019 Draft Prospect Watch Thread
Down goes Duke. You have to admit Hachimura outplayed Duke's trio.
Cam Reddish looked kind of pedestrian.
