- Really like Edwards
-Lamelo is a inefficient chucker at times with a hideous looking jump shot. Theres no denying the talent he posses but i just worry its gonna result into me first ball with him. Kid jist had like a 40 pt triple double
-havent seen Henry yet this year

For me its really between Edwards, Anthony and maybe Mannion.

Wiseman is obviously nice but i dont see much more then a rim running big with him. Small sample size but hes nowhere near like a Embiid people were claiming.

Arizona plays tonight at 9 i believe and can get a look at two potential top 10 picks in Mannion and Josh Green

From today's game, Just love the two way motor he plays with. Would be a great start to a rebuild as our franchise PG. Watch the block he got today my goodness in the video.

Dude has it all. Driving, finishing around the rim, shooting from anywhere, getting to the FT line, good size and athleticism, great motor and energy. With PG being the most over saturated position I could easily see Anthony dropping to 3 or 4 where hopefully we are picking.

An Anthony, Kennard, Doumbouya, Drummond quartet is an instant rebuild. Would be great to get another core young piece to add at SF for Griffin. We will see.

Thats what im thinking as well is hes dropping to around 4 if someone takes Lamelo before him. I think Wiseman and Edwards are going 1 and 2 this year.

And agree hes literally able to do everything on both sides of the ball and is probably the best rebounding PG in college as well.

I actually really like the top guys in this draft. If we can get top 5 I will probably be happy with who we take. Wiseman, Edwards, Anthony, Ball, McDaniels would all fit on this team. My pipedream scenario is to trade Griffin for another lottery pick and we tank to get our own lottery pick. Draft Anthony and McDaniels. Resign Drummond and Wood.

Anthony/Rose/Brown
Kennard/Snell/Thomas
McDaniels/Mykhailiuk
Doumbouya/Wood
Drummond/Wood

I really don’t want a guard unless it’s a big guard. These small exciting pgs are fun but they don’t move the needle for winning.

I’m starting to keep my eye on Romeo Weems. He might be the top wing available.
You need 2-way wings, 2-way shooting bigs, and you can't allow low iq players on the court. Assist/turnover ratio is crucial. Shooting point guards are icing on the cake IF they are plus defenders.
Weaver & Casey, govern yourselves accordingly!

Edwards is 6'4"
Anthony is 6'3"
Ball is 6'7"

These aren't small guards.

I didn’t say Ball or Edwards were small guards. They’re my top 2 picks. Other than that I’d take a wing.

Watching this Washington and Gonzaga game but Jaden McDaniels and Isaiah Stewart are both good prospects to keep a eye on

Yup, I like both as well. Edwards, Wiseman, Anthony, Ball, McDaniels, Stewart, Carey are all guys I'll be keeping my eyes on. Lots of talent in this draft with good upside many AND fill a position of need for us.

Another one to keep a eye on is PG Tyrese Haliburton from Iowa State. Guy is killing it

Haven't gotten around to checking him out just yet but will do. Apparently Nico Mannion is shooting up the mock drafts too but he also another guy I haven't looked into. Soooo many PGs this draft. It's like Adam Silver is trying to set up a foolproof draft for us so we can finally get our first legit franchise PG since Billups left lol.

Mannion looks good, super smooth scorer who can already run a offense like a vet. Downfall is his lack of speed which might damper his ceiling a bit.

I think Haliburton is my pick if were stuck in that inevitable 12-16 area of the draft. 6'5 PGwith that type of all around skillset feels safe but still with high potential.

Isaiah Stewart from Washington. Kid reminds me of Harrell or something. 6'9 with a 7'6 wingspan, built like a tank and ferocious at attacking the rim.

Ah, draft dreamin'. I would temper your expectations people. You know damn well the Pistons are going to win just enough to make sure all the top tier talent is just out of reach.

See who will be available in the 8-13 range.

Those are the guys im looking at. Youll get a good player 8-13 of this draft it just lacks superstar talent at the top to be honest.
