Have you seen the size of him? A freshman first year playing as a SG when he was an SF. Do you know his FT% is an obvious indicator of transferability. Shot it well fine last six games

Once again have you seen the size of him? I digress


Haha bro just relax.

You dont have to look at things as black and white. My opinion is just an information and is not end all be all.

Like I said, i could be wrong and i dont have a crystal ball. I just want to draft guys who checks both my boxes. I believe, which i could be wrong again, that i will miss some good players but i’ll be hitting them more often than not.

Again, he could end up very good. Maybe better than LeBron. Who knows.

Oh, and I like my take of having Cam in front of Mobley. It could be wrong in the first 2-3 years but could be right in the next 4-6 years kind of projection.

Cam has unlimited ceiling for me with his foundational skills and how the game favors him. Dont get me wrong, Im not delusional to say he’d be GOAT. There are still guys in this draft I’ll draft over him

Have you tried trying to lose some weight? If you’re doing it and not get any result, you’ll stop doing it. But some people have good genes that they can result right away. I just feel the later is the case on guys who has the game favoring them. It feel like things are lining up for them and have a purpose in life that this allows them to go further than the limit.

If you think you have a good chance to be the very best at what you do, it’s just very empowering for a person. Look at Giannis or Embiid.

If you think you dont have a good chance, you’ll not going Don Quixote and attack those dragons which is a losing battle. This is why Ben doesnt try to shoot like Steph Curry with the wrong hand.

Lebron ain’t got nothing on Fat Luka :) We should just draft and stash Roko next year and turn him into Luka.

Pasta and meatballs, Euro Country sledgehammer and tire training, Cigs, Vodka, 3am soccer viewing with the boys and Luka game tape lol that’s it.
Li WenWen is the GOAT

He'll likely be BPA at #28. If he checks out medically we should take him there.


I'm 1000% expecting us to take him at #28.


I pretty much expect the pick to be traded at the likelihood you expect Butler to be our guy.

He's status-quo for me though if we keep our draft slot. Not Bones Hyland / Tre Mann tier of excitement, but also not Quentin Grimes, Ayo Dosunmu, Jaden Springer levels of meh.

We're totally taking Butler at 28. Then he'll sit out for the year.

Who are the like-sized guys in the league that were missing out on and does Cooper provide a similar skillset? I’m willing to listen to the “unconventional sometimes works out” argument, but only for guys over 6’2.

The Fro makes him 6'3 so there

(IDK I am just willing to take a chance on a guy who passes like that and with that first step....especially at 28)

Bouknight
- bad shooting numbers
- horrible WARP
- probably this year’s fool’s gold

This organization has been great at drafting guys outside of the lottery. I get that there's a roster crunch, but I wish they'd figure out a way to just make the pick.

Good WARP numbers.

U from europe stormi?

Hollinger is going to get his squad killed by favoring heavily on numbers. That was the reason he drafted JJ that high over Doncic and Trae.

Hopefully Larry Nance Jr. it will be a super nice addiction imho, as a player and as contract too.

Hollinger doesn't work there anymore.
