its been a strong class imo. queen/kon have been showing out lately. cmb is doing just fine and would be making more noise if he had a starting gig and the mins/reps of the other guys.

A lot of great rookies this year. Very good draft.

OG was too fragile to be trusted. I started watching ball when Vince a rook, Damon was gone to Portland when I started watching. I say TMAC before OG.

What’s crazy is Barnes has a longer wingspan and standing reach and it seems like Boyles has a better ability to finish with a dunk.


CMB’s center of gravity is significantly lower than Scottie’s.

Makes him a much better driver and finisher against contact in the air.

Mamu is an underrated passer as well, makes the right reads out there.

That said ..they are going to tank hard so don't expect Pascal or Nembhard to play more then 50 games.

Ingram looks like the best midrange shooter in the league right now

And next year's crop is probably going to be even better. KOC said that some execs feel like Flagg doesn't go any higher than 3rd in this year's draft and probably goes 5th or 6th.

I need a video essay analysis on RJ’s FT’s.

How did he improve so much as a 3 point shooter but regress heavily with his FT’s.
