Do I live in a different universe where Bolmaro is a completly different player? Are we sure we are talking about Leandro Bolmaro?
Robert Horry is better than MJ, because everybody knows that 7>6.

If you read the given description for Bolmero
-potentially good POA defender
-pretty good ball handler or his size
-potentialy good vision

Does any of that not apply to Carter?

okay? these can apply to Tre Jones and Deni Avdija too, doesn't mean comparing them makes any sense?

If you describe Deni or Tre that way, your doing them a disservice.

Why don't you tell me what role you expect Bolmero to play in the NBA?

dude, I don't even know what the hell you're talking about? how is this even a convo? in what world are Leandro Bolmaro and Jevon Carter even similar? I don't even know how to have this conversation

Queta isn't a nice prospect but he's a prospect especially in the drop system

He has nice feet on the perimeter

I’m pretty sure Isaiah Stewart just unintentionally shattered Nnaji’s eye socket coming down from grabbing a rebound.

There is zero reason Anthony Edwards should be the #1 pick. Players like him never work out in the league and taking him #1 is just going to compound it and make it a terrible situation.

Depends on the team:

Wiseman
Hayes
Deni
Okongwu


Have to understand you are not getting a star. Maybe a fringe All Star at best.

My guess is the best player(s) from this draft will come outside of the top 10. Guys like Aleksej Pokuševski, Scottie Lewis or Kira Lewis.

Edwards has shot 40%+ from 3 only twice in the past 15 games including 1-12 today.

The two players you mention who I have questions on are Hayes and Deni.

I have Hayes top 10, but I'm not 100% confident in myself there. Can you explain what you like about him and why you have him so high in this draft?

And about Deni, what do you think he will be in the NBA? When I read people on this board talk about him the player that comes to my mind is Gallanari. But I just don't see it yet with Deni. Is Gallanari a guy you would comp Deni too? Is their a different player you would use as a Avdija comp?

I like Lewis and would comfortably draft him in the first round now that he’s showing he can score, but let’s not pretend he was on Maxey the whole game. He was matched up on Quickley quite a bit, who scored 12 on 5-8 before fouling out early, and also defended Brooks on a few possessions. Quickley scored on him a couple of times and Brooks once or twice. I love Lewis as a defender but saying he singlehandedly shut down Maxey today is giving people the wrong impression.

wrong, Quickley's primary defender was Nembhard, Lewis got switched on him a couple of times and Quickley only scored once against him, Brooks also once and it was a rando floater.

and yes, he single handedly shut Maxey down. he was Maxey's primary defender the entire night. not sure what's 'the wrong impression' about that.
