everyone going on about it weak draft, gotta find the Gems..

we have very possibly close to top 5 pick, another top 20, and end of 1st/ early 2nd pick..

go for skilled/high ceiling/long wings-
top 5 and top 20 pick:
Risacher/ K. George/Castle

Sleeper guard 31st pick:
Kolek is going to be atleast a good backup PG (big sleeper)

or one of the centre's at 31st pick:
Clingan/Missi/Edey/ Ulrich

that would be a great outcome with quality prospects with all picks.

Ideally I want: Risacher our top pick/ K. George indy pick/ Kolek 31 pick/ and then possibly some trade for one of the many bigs

Am I crazy to think Kolek is a lottery pick in this draft? The kid just gets it done.

I've seen enough Topic is #1 by far, only guy with >15% equity to be a perennial all star.

I might have Filipowski at #2.

Purdue racks up fouls drawn, other team starts missing, starters in foul trouble, early bonus leads to easier buckets. An old formula that still works probably more today given the weak interior defense. Still have to make your open shots of course.

Watch for Colvin on Purdue next season, lot of talent.

Let's see how they fare against legit teams like Houston, Creighton/Tenn and potentially Clingan and UConn. All of them are far more disciplined and have intelligent C's with size. Refs likely won't be blowing the whistle every minute against them.

I was referring to NBA style, anyone can beat these college teams with some hot shooting in these one game eliminations

Dude would be entirely incompatible with N.O.A.H. due to the low arc on his shot. I wouldn't mind him bricking everything next year at 19 while working on new form while we get ping pong balls for 2025.

Topic has such elite touch from the FT line it's hard to see him not having a good midrange game from the elbows

They both had good games. Kolek was better, but KJ’s stock is still rising.

MLSE has a G league playing right now in SBA, how's that working out?
