Nick Smith Jr
Sidy Cissoko

Lots of good talent still on the board.

Masai. He trades picks to get rid of players he signed.

Dude his bbiq is so low, I was honestly shocked Thorpe came out and said he loves him but he said so based on how he loves "guards who blow up and grow into big men over a summer or two". Miller makes so many errors on the court, his frame is awesome and his hustle isn't questioned but he just doesn't have great feel for the game. g-league ignite stats mean very little apparently.

All these teams making trades and Masai evaluating

Every East contender improved with their moves. We are neither contending nor rebuilding and still failed to choose a direction. Smh

Our front office probably refuses to take that L, they'd rather let Flynn walk for nothing

at this late point of the draft the risk/rewards really skews in his favour imo


Nah, wouldn't care if we got him as a UDFA honestly. His odds of being a NBA player are less than 5%

He has legitimate mid 40's %ages upside.

I forgot Korver made an all-star team. The comparison is interesting because Korver's skill set meshed so well with the system and players those ATL teams had that it elevated them to a perennial 50 win, second round team. Gradey could do the same for us before his rookie contract is up.

But that's his downside.

No thats his backside.

Lowry's upside is mental and psychological.

Still think Miller is a much better prospect than Precious?
