I supposed I’d be on board.
I think Garland is the better project, but whatever.
White can shooter well enough.
Wouldn't surprise me one bit with the Hutchison promise last year. They found a guy they liked early and basically stopped doing their due diligence on some of the other players.
I'm assuming they liked what they saw all year in White and wanted to interview him in person to confirm he was also a high character guy before promising him the pick. Which is surprising because if you listen to White speak, he doesn't seem like the most intelligent guy or a "Garpax type" of player, we'll see.
White fits the Pax profile. I personally would love to have a legit fro on our team.
As for fit and ceiling... lots of questions but White is only 19 and does have a lot of tools, size and quickness and speed going in his favor. If he can learn to pass and at least keep the ball moving he could be a great fit. If we get him I look to get Beverley to coach him on defense. Sam Smith has been saying Brogdon will be back in MIL for sure.

Player A played for freaking Murray State, whereas player B played in in a premier conference and for a premier program that was the number one team in the nation. Player B broke the record for the most points scored by a freshman in the history of UNC. Player B also scored the most points in the history of high school basketball in North Carolina. So, that's like apples and oranges.

So like a rumored chance of Phoenix trading out of draft.
SMALL chance LA can trade 4+6 to Pels. SMALLER chance that Pels want Colby over Garland?? (fit with Holiday?) Maybe also pair Hunter and Zion? (or maybe even reach on Hayes)
Cavs I read have main interest in Culver. Don't seem big players for Garland.
So 1- Zion (Pels) / 2 - Morant (Mem) / 3 - RJ (NY) / 4 - Hunter (Pels) / 5 - Culver (Cle) / 6 - White or Hayes (Pels) ... Bulls - Garland
So I'm saying there's a chance!
(Personally, I'm really liking Hunter. But Garland has a high high ceiling and if we drafted Garland and signed Rubio that'd be a really good situation for Garland to develop his PG skills)

4. Reddish (we don't really need a wing but what the heck?)
5. Hunter
6. Hachimura
Nah.. not buying that the Bulls are interested in Reddick over Hunter or Rui, even. This sounds a lot like the MPJ story last year as I've said. I have a lot of problems with Pax but drafting is not one of them. He has the tape and he is not putting Reddish's high school accolades above his less than mediocre crap, fully shat the bed season at Duke. No way.

It would set the rebuild back about 1-2 years.
Sure we get a potential number 1 option cheaper but for rj to perform at Zach current level is 1 to 2 seasons away realistically.
Zach and RJ are both volume scorers. I have no doubts that RJ could be putting up 20 ppg year two if he wanted to. Funny enough that I think they both have to work on the same things, decision making, defense. But I'll take a chance on the kid who is 18 who dominated the toughest conference in basketball for the next 4 years (at 10 mil less a season) over the guy who still hasnt figured it out while being in the league for 5 years.
It's funny how you are trying to change your stance in one thread. You are not proposing LaVine straight up for RJ, which some would probably consider, but you are also giving away number 7. That's an overkill.

I said I'm saying they are not the same player AT ALL. Just that their shooting stats and quite a few other things just happened to be almost identical. Coby White might turn out to be a good player. I'm just not crazy about him as the Bulls pick, especially if Hunter is there. But I won't be upset or anything. Now, if we drafted Cam Reddish, I would be pretty upset over it.
