This draft is stacked.... I like the top 5 players. Each of the Top 5 could have been the number 1 pick in this years draft (I think(

Yeah any of them would be 1st this year

I need to see more of Mobley. His ceiling is high but I’d rather not take a big in this draft. We need a legit wing that can take over a game. We could use our 2nd rounder on a big since the pick would be early in the 2nd round which is basically a late 1st in this draft

For me it's Suggs or Kuminga. Not too high on Cade. Mobley looks good but he's soo thin.

Ben simmons avg’d a double double and showed flashes of his passing ability in college. Cunningham is nothing like simmons. Probably more in the colin sexton category

Not having a clear cut #1 isn’t indicative of a bad draft class tho.

This isn’t a meh draft...just cause there’s no clear cut number one doesn’t mean the draft isn’t good. Any one of the top 5 picks this year would’ve gone 1st in this past draft

This draft is considered to be one of the strongest in a while. Probably gonna be around the level of 2009

This is at least as good as the 2018 draft. Possibly better

Not really. Everyone said 2020 was a bad draft. Everyone said 2013 would be a bad draft. They said 2018 was good and it was.

No lift in Autin’s shot. Green is bigger and faster than Rivers.

I think as the months go on, you'll have a clearer idea of who the best player in the draft is. Its too early to tell.

Definitely. Once the Gleague season starts, we’ll get a better look at Green and Kuminga. And once the NCAA tourney comes around, we’ll see what the college guys are capable of. Unfortunately Cade won’t be in the tourney though cause OK state is banned this year

That's a good comp!

https://www.forbes.com/sites/adamzagoria/2020/12/17/jonathan-kuminga-continues-to-impress-with-g-league-ignite-team/?sh=6ecb62772fee

Kuminga has to be the guy we target. African Kawhi

“And on the defensive end, he’s by far our best defender…We put him on the opposing team’s center and Jonathan’s big enough to be able to hold his own but can switch out and guard any other position. He can for sure guard 1-4, so all-around he had a great game for us.”


Reggie Hearn of the Ignite, who has played for other G League teams, said Kuminga’s ceiling is that of Kawhi Leonard. Meantime, Kuminga and his teammates got their first taste of action against older, experienced pros.

Need more tape on the g-league guys. If they succeed many more prospects will follow that route

It's been a while since this team has had that exciting anticipation before drafts and draft parties. Let's get this going again before the draft! Very excited to add high level talent.
