and I’ve seen garland listed as tall as 6’4 online. idk how tall he exactly is gotta wait for the combine but he’s noticeably bigger then trey to me. can’t speak for you.


See this is where I'm at in the whole Garland/Morant discussion. If you know Kyrie is going to sign with NY then Garland is a better fit because his skill set (shooting) compliments your roster.

As much as I like Morant, his entire gsme is predicated on being a ball dominant PG who creates for others. Two ball dominant PGs don't work. It could work but you'd need to have an acknowledged offensive mind to build and design that offense. Ironically Mike D'Antoni would be the guy I'd hire to design and run such an offense.

Fizdale hasn't shown that he possesses chops on that level so I'd never task him with pulling off something that maybe 5 living coaches could pull off.

Ok top 4 in draft arguably highly graded prospects, is there a 5th? 

Post#1865 » by KnixinSix » Sat Apr 6, 2019 8:34 pm

We got Zion and Ja as the top 2 and on Potential Superstar level.

We have Barrett and Culver on potential star level.

All 4 should be high to elite grade.

However is there a #5? And if so, how close to a grade to the other guys?

Currently I got him below Keldon Johnson and Nassir Little. His lack of assertiveness on offense is frustrating. Like you said he just floats around most of the time.

Are any of Clarke, Hunter or Coby White good enough to be ranked right along side Barrett or Culver?

That was a foul. The foul before that one was the dumb move.
