Darius Garland's outfit reminds me of the mastermind bad guy from Demolition Man.

Darius Garland just stepped out of the Jedi Academy.

Not sure of the validity, but wondering if he'll fall.

Forget the medical, look at his garbage scoring efficiency and other NBA scrubs who were 40% true shooting guys in college. He'd be off my draft board off of pure principle.

Ibaka's playoff run should raise Mfiondo's appeal.

I don't follow college basketball, so please be nice.

Is Jarrett Culver a better prospect than Zhaire or vice versa?

the so called "mainstream" media and broadcasters are on literally totally opposite of myself and many others who's opinions I consider validating based on their histories with evaluating draft prospects (Negrodamus,Kobble,LLoyd)

I hear sooo many guys today on TV, radio and online touting Cam Johnsons shooting as "The best in the draft" and an ideal fit for Philly. I get the theoretical marriage based on his shooting, but I'm just not 100% sold.

I have said from day 1 of the off-season I have a gut feeling Cam Johnson would be a Sixers....Her is to hoping its not the case tonight and we take someone more appealing.

Culver always seemed like a better prospect because he had on ball skills when they were both freshman. Zhaire was way more explosive, but was also essentially a power forward in college. Both had a pretty mediocre shooting profile (some positives, some negatives). In terms of superstar upside, Culver is better.

The heavier Zion is, the more his opponents will struggle.
He's going to be fast no matter what weight he is, so if he's extremely heavy then he'll be even more dominant :nod:

Culver is superior but I'm reassessing my negativeish Zhaire takes I had this time last year.

Why would they even start the clock on Pelicans.. It pisses me off.
