Don't fall in love when you have no chance.

Oh well.... YAY Dylan Windler, then... I guess? :oops:

This is ridiculous. i have never seen someone dominate a game offensively like this without shooting... They are trapping him and he's giving his teammates layup after layup after wide open 3 after wide open 3 every single possession.

Triple double now...

It is crazy that a kid as special as Morant somehow ends up at Murray State while the Utes can't recruit a freshman pg to save their life.

We need to pray that he heads east and not to the suns. If he goes to the suns their upside is scary.

I need to see Dylan Windler stand next to an NBA player for reference. Not going get fooled again like Barrett.

Louis King has length and mobility on defense that reminds me a bit of Jerami Grant. He knocked down three 3s as well. He doesn't rebound like a big though. He's more of a floor spacing wing.

Matisse Thybulle's defensive instincts and timing are insane. I have not seen anything quite like this recently. I'm not sure his offensive game is NBA-level though... I wonder how he will be evaluated by the league. He has NBA all defense team type of potential if he can stay on the floor on the other end.

Coby White looks so different watching him play real games than he does in highlights. I got the impression that he was a volume scorer, combo type...but he's really more of a lead guard. He's really the only ball handler UNC has and he has great end to end speed. He's pretty wild and out of control, but lots of talent there. I think he'll go top 8.

His numbers this year defensively are insane. I don't remember a player even sniffing 3.5stls a game in college before. As far as his shooting goes I think he has the potential to be a solid spot up shooter ala Royce. When he was playing with a ball dominant guard in Fultz to set him up he hit 40% from 3. I think he could get back to that level again in the pros. It is frustrating that Lindsey wasted two assets on Allen and Bradley because I would kill to trade into the back end of the first round a couple of times to solidify our roster. Between Okeke, Porter, Thybulle, Cam Johnson, Bazley, Nwora, Clarke, Kabengele and Grant William's the back end of the 1st rd is absolutely loaded with solid prospects.

Who are the fat guys in this year's draft?

sipclip · Post #134 » by **sipclip** » Sun Mar 24, 2019 12:29 am

Pretty much no one.

Low potential draft then :lol:

Jontay Porter just tore the same Acl again. You have to feel horrible for the kid. That family is cursed by injuries.

Eric Paschall looks thick... don't know if he qualifies.

Naz Reid is another fat guy (although apparently he’s already dropped 30 lbs). I watched their game yesterday and...idk. I think the idea of him is nice, but I don’t think he’ll be an NBA player.

I think we should definitely draft a ball handler or scorer.

I don't see many of those in our range. I hope Grayson Allen has some value to teams so we can use him to trade up.

Also...

Grant Williams

"Williams says he arrived on campus last summer weighing "257 (or) a little bit higher maybe" before he got down to the 232-234 range during the season. He's working to reduce his body fat percentage as he attempts to sustain his energy on the floor and stay effective for longer stretches."

Grayson has no value. He's behind Naz in the pecking order
