The fact that there may be some NBA players in the second round doesn't make a draft "historically" deep. It makes it normal.

That's being disengenuous because you know that's not what I was saying.
Players as deep as 60 in this draft could be as 40 in many drafts.

I don't think you could possibly know that.

It looks pretty bad.

It's an opinion, a projection, just like everything on this board.
I could similarly quote you saying -EvanZ wrote:

..And say 'I don't think you could possibly know that' as well.
But, in my opinion, Gam's, and I would imagine the majority of the board, this is a deep draft compared to most.
You're just being difficult.

"If he’s able to shoot, he’ll be a Grant Hill or an Iguodala. If he doesn’t, he’ll be like Corey Brewer, which is still pretty good.”
How can there be any NBA level scouts that thinks that if Jackson ends up "like Corey Brewer" that will still be "pretty good". Does this scout think that if you drafted Corey Brewer 3rd overall you'd be doing "pretty good". If I were an NBA owner I would pay Davis to tell me who said that and if they were part of my organization I would fire that scout immediately.

The difference between Iggy and Brewer is immense, but it has little to do with shooting.

Ehh iggy ain't great himself..I'd say there's a bigger gap between Hill and iggy than iggy and brewer.
