Barrett's strength on offense is getting to the cup. More times than not it's a layup. Lucky you.. because not only are you going to get a podcast this year.. You're also going to get your post sig'd.

He’s got a nice step back, eurostep, and that nice spin in move he does in post. He’s pretty good with that floater that he just added this year. He’s really only missing an off the dribble 3 from being a three level scorer. Kuminga doesn’t really have any of that and is basically just a power driver too but only shot 39/25/62 in the g league. I don’t need to tell you that’s not great. So yeah I def think RJ is on his level.

I really like Suggs and probably would have him higher than RJ on my board but there’s def moments in games that Suggs floats and is not really engaged. That might be cuz his team is really good and isn’t need to dominate every night but I think it’s a red flag. Motor issues are my biggest concerns when it comes to guys coming out.

:lol: You're out your damn mind.

How is that a controversial statement at all? RJ was the #1 prospect in high school, had a great season at duke, was the best SG in college and averaged 22/8/4.

What would make a team pass on him for Suggs and Kuminga? Kuminga started out well, but was inefficient as hell in the G league and is looking a lot more raw than expected. Suggs is good, but he's on a stacked team where he only puts up 14/5/4. To put RJ on the same tier as them doesn't seem crazy at all.

if all things stay the same should we roll the dice on Sharife Cooper? Starting to think of all the open shots people will get with his ability to pass the rock

Maybe on cooper. He’s a smaller PG but Thibs can work with that, look at what he did with Nate Robinson. His college game is very Payton’esque though. He attacks more than Payton did in college, shoots the ball worst, and has more assist.

Thibs like playmaker PG but I think Cooper’s size limits that. Unlike Payton, Rose, and Quickley, he doesn’t have a longer wingspan to compensate for not being tall. All three of our PG’s have 6’8 wingspans and I think the longer wingspan is by design since it allows them to defend at the perimeter to a certain level. In fact Sharife is not a good defender at all.

It isnl't. This draft is overhyped.

He gets off his feet so quickly, everything around the rim is a quick dunk before the defender can even think to jump.

Yeah I definitely didn’t think my take was that insane for him to have that reaction. I’ve definitely had worse ones than this one before, that’s for sure :lol:

I def disagree that this draft is overhyped. I don’t think it’s super deep outside of the top 10 but the top 10 is really good. Cade and Mobley look like the truth and franchise players. Green needs to hit the weight room hard but he’s really explosive and very crafty that if he can get up to 220 he’s gonna be a stud too. Then there’s Suggs, Kuminga, Keon Johnson, Bouknight, that kid on Duke that quit on the team.

Cade has basically taken his game up to another level. We're going to regret not having a top pick this year. This kid is special

moves around like AD out there...basically what I'm saying he moves around like a wing with a centers frame.

Impressive.

Like CP3 he doesn't have those physical measurables, yet my eyeballs are telling me he he could have the makings of an elite play maker. He's nothing like Payton in that aspect IMO. He's small yeah 6'1" but its' not like he's in Nate Robinson or Isaiah Thomas midget land.
