The way this draft is going, keeping 16 & 18 was a smart move.

Ya that was an odd take. I get the Bouknight criticism but Moody is well rounded.


I just seem more projection with Moody than actual defensive IQ. He has the athleticism and length but I think he stood out due to that on defense more than IQ. Someone like Barnes has both. Doesnt mean he wont get better, wasnt trying to imply he was a chump on D.

He's basically projected to be like Mikal Bridges, who was a candidate for all defense.

Warriors are picking BPA, so probably Moody (Kispert is a better fit though)

A lot of unexpected picks so far. I think Kispert makes some sense at 16 (if he makes it there) now that we have Giddey/SGA/Dort in the back court. Wouldn’t mind Moody, but the back court gets pretty crowded if we take him.

I think the pandemic and chaotic and inconsistent year in sports has shaken up player evaluations. Teams aren't afraid to take players they like anywhere on the board.

Warriors taking BPA every single time since they don't know how long their young guys are gonna stay. Moody is still a nice fit.

Yeah. The top didn’t break our way, but so far the rest has been good. Still two picks left though. Probably Moody and Sengun get snatched up 14/15.

That will send me back to a dark place.

I know a lot of people will think Primo was a reach for the Spurs at 12, but i absolutely love that pick.

For us, I'm really hoping we can come away with some combination of Sengun, Trey Murphy, JT Thor, Mamu and Bleijenbergh.

And what should Presti have given up for them? I’m not arguing with you, I’m curious what you think.
