Also to people talking about the draft picks. We'll have our 20 and 22 firsts and we're damn good at drafting late in the first, in fact we're better drafting late than early (for whatever reason, sans last year).

We've found Jordan Clarkson and Kyle Kuzma late in the first. If their is one thing we do well, its draft in the late first round. We will need to pull a Brooklyn and get talent late in the first but with Ryan West a key component in our draft room, i think thats a possibility (i kind of hope we can trade into the late teens as well, Hachimura or Langford would be glorious).

You realize that Kyle Kuzma has nearly identical numbers as Jordan Clarkson right?

That’s still an asset to flip somewhere else. Didn’t realize at the time the pelicans had all the picks and swap opportunities though

What? Check again bud. Kuzma just finished his 2nd year.....

Apples to oranges.

Clarkson's career best year is equal to Kuzma's rookie year.

Where are you getting your stats?

Are those Per 36?

Can we look at actual stats? And also compare Kuzma to Kris Middleton....

Oh...how convenient.

Let's compare a 7th year player to a 2nd year player on per 36 and pretend that's legit.

Stop trolling dude. NBA players don't peak in their 2nd season.

Give Kuzma a few years before comparing him to other guy's peaks.

But if you want to do comparisons now why don't you look at Middleton? Very similar stats.

But you're just trying to throw shade at Kuzma by comparing him to Clarkson.

I'd say the best comp for Kuzma is TJ Warren. Both score first guys who aren't going to be difference makers on the defensive end and can suffer from tunnel vision. Kuzma is 2 years younger, a bit bigger and a better rebounder. TJ Warren is a more efficient scorer and floor spacer.

Ben Simmons played 81 in his rookie season and 79 this season, and never missed a playoff game, so you'd have to be on crystal crack to think Ben Simmons is injury-prone :lol:

He did prove you wrong. Injury prone typically refers to someone who is either (a) constantly getting injured through a series of different injuries; or (b) suffering from a chronic condition like arthritis. Simmons missed a year because a teammate landed on, and broke, his foot. That was unlucky but makes him no more prone to future injury than any other player in the league.

Run a fastbreak team with Alonzo, Ingram and Zion.

I would trade no. 4 for a shooting guard. Wonder if Boston would trade Brown to draft Garland.

Maybe Drue/No. 4 for Brown/Celtics 3 firsts?

Rough Offseason thus far for the Celtics and Knicks.

You could add Philly to the list if they lose Jimmy , Tobias, and JJ.
