He seems pretty high on Authur, who he compares to a younger Antonio McDyes, and Ibaka, who he compares to an Iguodala-Thaddues-Dalmebert hybrid, or trading down to get Hendrix, his sleeper pick. Truth be told, we could probably get either Ibaka or Hendrix if we traded down. Would it be worth trading our 16th and filler for two late 1st rounders and taking Hendrix and Hibbert or Ibaka and Hibbert? Hendrix is probably the player most similar to Speights in this draft in terms of his size and back-to-the-basket skills and has been compared to Carlos Boozer on many draft sites - however, he's listed at 6'8 (but is said to have a huge wingspan, which offsets his size). Thoughts?
