2021 NBA Draft

[Chicago-Bull-E]

Is that the footage quality coming from the G league? That's a bit rough. No formal sideline cameras in that league? Reports start with "I'm told..."

Low on Ayo?

-Garuba and Barnes same tier for me right now, JRE probably next tier down, Sylla not in their range at this point, more of a 2nd round guy to me

i have Lewis > Clarke but I'm higher on Lewis on than most, Clarke late teens/early 20s sounds about right, maybe higher to the right team

Cade over Suggs, Cade is T1, Suggs is T2 with JJ, Kuminga and Boston for me

BJ > Ziaire

Jackson > Brown

Moody is the best here, top 10 or 12 guy, Bouknight and Christopher about the same, Dosunmu more of a later 1st/early 2nd to me

Was curious specifically on your JJ vs Todd matchup. I know you were bigger on Todd before.

[Marcus]

I'm assuming the Jackson vs Brown matchup has a lot to do with translating into a role. Jackson definitely looks like he understands better who he is right now.

JJ is in T2 for me, right now JJ is > Todd, but I like Todd, just need to watch more in the G League, just not really sure where to place him right now and it's a strong class at the top.

He needs to shoot and improve some of his reads, and his stance/movement with his hips, but I think he can be Amir Johnson-ish

Memphis has a few interesting guys...Moussa Cisse, Nolley, Quinones, Jeffries

where is everyone on these guys?

I like Cisse's defensive potential, think he can serve as a good energy big for some team in the league maybe carve out a Chieck Diallo kind of role next level and there seems to be room to add on if someone wants to take the development time with him.

Back to this Lewis and Clarke convo. Lewis comes in baseline NBA ready defender with some offensive potential while Clarke comes in baseline NBA offensively ready with some defensive potential. Who do you think is more likely to fulfill that potential on the other end of the floor at the next level?

Lewis is stupidly underrated, I'm not even sure how tbh, freak wing athlete with 7 foot WS who is already an NBA-level defender at 3 positions who can run, shoot 3s and hit his FTs?

yea let's not have that guy high at all.

i mean, if Thybulle gets taken 17th overall, and Lewis is younger, more athletic, better offensively, and just as good of a defender I'm not sure what people are thinking.
