This guy is going to be a stud in the NBA

He was a teammate of Lamelo at Chino Hills. Superbly athletic. Great defensive skills. Great feel for the game. Huge motor and aggressive. Extremely efficient offensively. PER freak. Winner.

Cole is still better than what he showcased at NC so far to me.

Nico and Hailburton have definitely stood out more though, if hailburton keeps up his run things will get spicy

oh my bad, I was reading the haliburton stuff and didn't notice the picture

I agree with you, don't think I'd want to draft a PF

we're drafting a guard and you'll like it

robillionaire · Post #1828 » by **robillionaire** » Thu Jan 2, 2020 3:39 am

start looking in the 10-15 range, we making the playoffs

wiseman is not good.

draft a guy who can handle shoot and pass. killian prob drops to around knicks range. (he's a top 4 player in this class)

by the way, clarke was a better prospect than okongwu. not sure why the disparity in hype. okongwu is good tho.

I'm taking into account the possibility that Mills and Perry trade Robinson in a package for someone else. Yeah you know it can happen. :lol:

But more so in a general sense as far as whichever team gets him will be getting a guy that could be the next Siakam type star on both ends of the floor. Okongwu's intensity, instincts and feel for the game is just like Siakams. He's got the big wingspan, huge feet, springs, explosiveness, defensive timing, smarts and while it hasn't translated at the collegiate level he can actually shoot from outside as well (a lot of offensive potential beyond the Mitch Robinson-esque catch and dunk ability that he's showing in spades right now).

Clarke was 22 (23 when the season started) and okongwu just turned 19, I’d say that explains the disparity, people don’t get very hyped over 22y/o players

Many of us praised Clarke but questioned the upside due to age

I think this dude is gunna shoot up the board come draft time... not sure we could get another pick high enough to get him.

we are gonna be out of the running for top 5 pick

get Halliburton

Mecca · Post #1834 » by **Mecca** » Fri Jan 3, 2020 2:08 am

McDaniels and Haliburton are my 2 guys right now.

I miss greenie because she loved Bam more than anyone

Yeah, I know. I'm kinda dreaming on the two-lottery pick scenario. Wish we could get both Haliburton and Mannion. Backcourt sewn up for 10+ years. High BBIQ, unselfish, shooting, and ball-movers.

sad to say but also there's nothing to talk about. almost everybody we'd be hyped about is either injured or ineligible or playing bad

Not enough dribble penetration in that duo. I prefer Haliburton of the 2.
