surprised you are standing firm with Bol that high
has there been any public info regarding his foot and future complication concerns if any?

[clyde21]

none that i've seen one way or the other, and admittedly he's a risky pick so I can see him dropping depending how risk averse teams are...but I'm a believer in the talent and ceiling if he can stay healthy.

[eminence]

Trying to put together a 3rd tier, probably adding a fair number of guys and a couple of guys down from tier 2. We'll see if we get it done.

Edit: Ehh, scrap the tier 3, but I will move couple guys down out of tier 2.5 (NAW/Thybulle). In alphabetical order within tier this time. Last one, I'm excited for the draft to see where guys wind up.

Tier 1
Williamson

Tier 2
Culver
Hunter
Washington
Williams

Tier 2.5
Barrett
Bol
Clarke
Edwards
THT
Morant

Huge respect anytime someone has their own original standings. I’m with you on Clarke, Thybulle and a lot of other parts


Of course I disagree with you on KZ and Rui and some others. That parts fine. I think it’s a huge cop out to just leave guys “you don’t want to draft” out of the lists. There’s a bunch of guys that we all don’t like. None of us are drafting so it’s more interesting to see where you rank “guys you don’t like” than just leaving them out


If we are talking about where the consensus projections are there are a tone of guys I don’t like. Hayes, white, garland, grant williams...... I don’t want my teams to pick them as high as they’re projected, but I know they’re value somewhere


Or I’m just understanding you wrong and you think there’s 40,50,60 guys better than KZ or Rui or some of the others you won’t rank. Grant Williams your #7 and KZ or Rui not on your list is going to look terrible

[No-Man]

Oh I do think there are 60 guys better than KZ pretty easily yeah, other than that you understood me correctly

I'd have Rui ranked towards the end of my top30, he is also likely going 15 spots higher than that

[Coeur]

Ouch. Not worried about convincing you but sure you’re missing on KZ


You love Cody Martin. Is Jordan Caroline an NBA player?


Louis the King? Projected in the 2nd. Joe can you not list him?


I’m always convinced most of the people with really odd evaluations of PAC and western players either aren’t allowed to stay up late enough or can’t afford DVR’s so when it’s clear someone puts a bunch of time in I’m always more curious for opinions. Caroline, King, Wooten, lu Dort , and KZ are all guys im paying attention to guys like franks, boatright, or Justin James or the utah st big

[No-Man]

Caroline is terrible on defense

King is probably going 25-40, too rich for me, I am not particulary high on the guy

probably gonna end up moving Herro into my top 10 at this point, I've convinced myself he's that good, and Sekou should probably be in everyone's top 5.

i don't have he, keldon, naw, kezie, etc. ranked at this point, they'd probably be in the next group if I had to rank them but it's quite convoluted at that point and it would depend on where you want to go...just don't see enough of a projection to the next level to really make a claim.

JWF??? Love that dude too, kind of want to stick him into tier 3... Worried after my Gary Clark foray into 2nd round picks last season (though Gary had a decent 1st season for an undrafted guy)

[The-Power]

[...]

Where would Garland rank on your board?

[eminence]

[...]

Where would Garland rank on your board?

I honestly have no idea, I've only seen like 1 game of his. Off what I've heard from others I'd guess towards the top of that 3rd group.
