Adams is a terrific pickup for OKC.

MCW and Turner. That's a terrible backcourt offensively.

Adams could totally bust and still be better than Perkins.

Let's trade for Marion and #13 and take Shabazz.

Zeller and Shabazz would be a good night IMO.

MCW is a very similar prospect to Jrue coming into the draft if not better as far as court vision goes. They both turn the ball over like nobody's business though.

Zeller compared out to LMA and Bosh based on advanced stats.


Hit the nail on the head. He was the favorite to be #1 at the end of last year's draft and didn't play terrible just played on a team that didn't use some of his best skills. He will need to develop a few post moves, but he could be a very, very good player.

Last 3 number 4 picks: Tristan Thompson, Waiters, and Zeller.

All considered "reaches" by the media, we'll see.

Zeller is a C+ grade pick for us. He fills a need but he's not going to be a star.
