KBD too. KBD is basically Mikal-lite with longer arms. Like a slo-mo Mikal.

Greenie, that roster was built clumsy. None of them players were set up ideally to succeed. Not Knox, not SGA, not Vanderbilt, none of em.

Whatever. I hope he’s not the trash here that he was in Kentucky.

SGA eventually shined. Knox didn’t and he was the most gifted coming in.

I personally don't see SGA as a PG in the NBA, he don't got the vision for it. I don't think he's crafty enough to get away with half of the passes he did in college.

Not at point but I see him kinda like Frank as a hybrid that can lock down 1s and 2s easily. I didn't like SGA but I wouldn't have been mad at it if we created a lockdown perimeter D.


Which just circles back to the is Frank the PG? Is Burke a starter or was it a fluke? Is Timmy going to be a SG for us or we going to keep masquerading him at SF etc... That's why I didn't mind Knox, he's probably going to play SF this year before he fills out and becomes a PF in the future.

Trading back like the sixers probably would have been the way to go. A future pick would have been nice, plus we get a player for now. Could really pay off. Oh well.

Will they go in over bigger n better defenders in the NBA tho? Won’t be as reliable a shot on this level.


size doesn't matter when it comes to floaters. Look at Nash, Nate, and etc. Honestly speaking I was hoping to trade up and control our own pick.



You don’t think bigger and better defenders coming at you, and better defenses will affect a floater? He ain’t gunna be shooting as well with that shot in the NBA as he did over smaller dudes with weaker defense in college. That’s just a fact.


agree, all we can do at this moment is look at the upside of him being young and willing to develop. --we cant fire mills and perry now-- this is what we got.
