Pöltl would shore up bench depth. That's fine. But there are starter-quality players still on the board. Pöltl was not BPA by any measure.

its not Poetl. He is basically a younger version of Vuc, with less skill

Attempting only a half dozen shots from any significant distance away the rim over the last two years, Poeltl is not a particularly dangerous weapon outside the paint at this stage. He shows the ability to make sound decisions with the ball on short rolls to the rim and reads in hand off situations, but he isn't a very versatile offensive player. Outside of his ability to score the ball, Poeltl does a solid, but not spectacular job of crashing the boards. His instincts and motor are solid, but he lacks the tremendous length and athleticism common among the game's top rebounders.
He lacks a degree of strength and toughness on the block, but stays in good position and is quite a bit more disciplined not leaving his feet and avoiding foul trouble than many college big men. Though Poeltl may not grow into the type of player that carries a team defensively, he could certainly hold his own assuming his frame improves, without taking a toll on his foot speed.

i'll intellectually debate, but i only understand english and bad english.
Poetl is not a good defender, serviceable but not good. Vuc has a better all around offensive game and better rebounder, Poetl more athletic.Attempting only a half dozen shots from any significant distance away the rim over the last two years, Poeltl is not a particularly dangerous weapon outside the paint at this stage.

tell me how that is very much different than Vuc?

Poeltl is actually a good defender and rebounder. He is not that comparable to Vuc. He held his own against Towns and others in recent workouts and I have seen him go higher than 11 in plenty of mocks. I think this notion of BPA is somewhat false. It is often just an opinion and you never know until that player actually plays in the NBA. at the time of the draft you can do you best to predict that but in the end there are usually a couple if not more players that are fairly evenly graded. I think Poeltl would be a good pick at 11 if he is there.

well, every scout says that he isnt a good team defender, help defender. Maybe he holds his own on defense, but so can Vuc. and i still say, if you are drafting Poetl, we must be moving Vuc because they are too much a duplication of skills and player.
