2020 NBA Draft Prospects: Thread II

Neeva · Post #1641 » by **Neeva** » Tue Oct 27, 2020 8:54 pm

Why would the wolves Trade back from 17? There will be someone good at 17 that can be a future starter like Bey, Maxey etc because this is a deep draft up to the 20s. At 26 and 30 that is unlikely. Wolves have too many players already.

Horrible mock draft for the wolves

Right there is no way Rosas will pass on Lamelo at 3. He will draft him as future trade chip or trade down again with Knicks/Bulls. I don’t see Rosas taking Deni at 3, who I find a bit overated.

Why would they forget about it?

I dont love it nor hate it. Though Boston is the prime trade back candidate. I would ask for 2 future 2nds in addition.

You aren't getting #27, #30, AND two seconds for #17. Take out #30 and it would be somewhat possible, but I am doubtful that Boston would pull the trigger, given their quantity of Draft picks.

They are more packed in terms of roster space. If they want to consolidate, then force the issue. Otherwise, hang up the phone.

Not to mention their future 2nds are definitely 45 or later for the foreseeable future.

You do not draft someone at 3 as a future trade chip. They have more potential to lose value after the draft. You either have a deal cemented or you plan for your team.

Disagree 30 isn’t going to get Boston to move up to 17. Maybe not even enough to move up to 20 or 21.

2019 Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Virginia Tech – New Orleans Pelicans (1 start in 1 season) avg 1 start per season
2018 Donte DiVincenzo, Villanova – Milwaukee Bucks (24 games in 2 seasons) avg 12 starts per season
2017 D.J. Wilson, Michigan – Milwaukee Bucks (3 starts in 3 seasons) avg 1 start per season
2016 Wade Baldwin, Vanderbilt – Memphis Grizzlies (1 start in 3 seasons) avg .33 start per season
2015 Rashad Vaughn, UNLV – Milwaukee Bucks (8 starts in 3 seasons) avg 2.66 starts per season
2014 James Young, Kentucky – Boston Celtics (0 starts in 4 seasons) avg 0 starts per season
2013 Dennis Schroeder, Germany – Atlanta Hawks (305 starts in 7 seasons) avg 43.5 starts per season
2012 Tyler Zeller, UNC – Dallas Mavericks (166 starts in 8 seasons) avg 20.75 starts per season
2011 Iman Shumpert, Georgia Tech – New York Knicks (382 starts in 9 seasons) avg 42.4 starts per season
2010 Kevin Seraphin, France – Chicago Bulls (34 starts in 7 seasons) avg 4.85 starts per season

2000’s

2009 Jrue Holiday, UCLA – Philadelphia 76ers (640 starts in 11 seasons) avg 58 starts per season
2008 Roy Hibbert, Georgetown – Toronto Raptors (586 starts in 8 seasons) avg 73.25 starts per season
2007 Sean Williams, Boston College – New Jersey Nets (29 starts (all in 1st season) in 4 seasons) 7.25 starts per season
2006 Shawne Williams, Memphis – Indiana Pacers (58 starts in 7 seasons) avg 8.25 per season
2005 Danny Granger, New Mexico – Indiana Pacers (475 starts in 10 seasons) avg 47.5 starts per season
2004 Josh Smith, Oak Hill Academy H.S. VA – Atlanta Hawks (772 starts in 13 seasons) avg 59.4 starts per season
2003 Zarko Cabarkapa, Serbia & Montenegro – Phoenix Suns (4 starts in 3 seasons) avg 1.33 starts per season
2002 Juan Dixon, Maryland – Washington Wizards (77 starts in 7 seasons) avg 11 starts per season
2001 Michael Bradley, Villanova – Toronto Raptors (13 starts in 5 seasons) avg 2.6 starts per season
2000 Desmond Mason, Oklahoma State – Seattle Supersonics (385 starts in 10 seasons) avg 38.5 starts per season

So based on the last 20 drafts the 17th pick has a 35% chance of being what I would consider a consistent starter in the league. In the last 10 drafts this number is only 20% which means there's an 80% chance the pick at 17 won't be a starter.

My point being, of course you look for the best player you can get at this position, but having an expectation of finding a starter at this pick doesn't jive with the actual odds of finding one.

Great post! I've said it for years, the draft is so over rated unless you're at the top....and then it still can be.

That post does not list the good players that were passed and selected just a few spots after 17. just in recent drafts players like Collins, Thybulle, Lavert and Huerter. There will be good players at 17 available in every draft the GM just has to make the right selection.

This draft class is underated at this point with all the negativity it is getting.

I wonder what percentage of NBA players came from the draft.

It’s high.

And I bet it’s higher for starters.

This draft class is underated at this point with all the negativity it is getting.

I think it's a good exercise to see the past results at 17 but also agree Neeva, that it doesn't take into account players found later. The leading player of one of the Finals teams this season was a former #30 pick, and two more of their high minute players were undrafted completely. I agree, the GM's job is to find them.

This draft is loaded with high middle round talent getting discredited for some reason. I wouldn't even be surprsed to see another couple undrafted players from this season making a name for themselves in the next two years in the NBA.

The part I hope others can see in this is where everyone is hoping to improve bench shooting and bench defense and so what is wrong with a player at #17, or a player even at #1 overall being helpful positive bench players for a couple seasons here? Maybe they don't become good starters until year 3 or 4 of their career or ever. But they might be able to get things done off bench roles for Wolves.

And I bet it’s higher for starters.

Lol, what a pointless post.

What's even funnier is that there are 60 players drafted per season (not always coming to the NBA) and last year there were 36 players that were undrafted that played in at least one NBA game.

The year before there were also 36 players undrafted that played at least one NBA game.

The year before that there were 40 players undrafted that played at least one NBA game.

Not only is your post worthless to the conversation, it's not even as accurate as you thought when you made your snarky post.

The original point of my post was for people to remove their emotions/feelings from the situation and look at the actual stats to temper expectations.

urinesane · Post #1655 » by **urinesane** » Wed Oct 28, 2020 5:39 pm

Also, as far as finding quality players outside of the lottery.

WHERE they go is usually a bigger factor than what number they are selected at (or who takes a chance on them if they aren't drafted). If a team can't develop a player or give them opportunity, they won't become a diamond in the rough for them, period.

Doing so would be a waste of time, because it would only lower the % of starters found out of players drafted.

My point wasn't to say you can't find quality players outside of the lottery, obviously history has shown that to be false. I was simply trying to get people to look at the stats in order to try and merge their expectations with reality. That doesn't mean we shouldn't hope that the team can find gems throughout the draft, but it does mean that statistically, we shouldn't expect it. Especially with our draft history (though hopefully Rosas and Gupta turn that around).

Remember my post came from someone saying that we should be able to find a starter with the #17 pick. I simply showed how often that has happened in the last 20 drafts at the #17 spot.

DaMplsKid · Post #1657 » by **DaMplsKid** » Wed Oct 28, 2020 6:59 pm

I think sometimes we get sucked into focusing on the players negatives and miss the positives. I personally am not in love with the top 3 players and their fit on our team. However as the draft get closers we have to start to consider all 3 of this guys. So tehy way I look at positively.

Wiseman: I think could be a starter on our team and might be the prefect fit not to Towns. I big who can rim run, rebound, and catch lobs. He is the anti Towns but might be the yin and yang of bigs. The paint would be wide open for Wiseman to operate and having him or Town on the court at all times should give our team the advantage for 48 mins. We need rebounding and defense two things he should be able to help with day one.

Edwards: Could be the next best young SG in the NBA. I think he would have to be in the starting line up and given the opportunity with the ball in his hands. He is strong and should be able to physically play in the NBA day 1. He fits next to Dlo nicely with is scoring and finishing at the basket. I think he could help get us bucket in crunch time by drawing fouls and getting to the line.

Ball: I personally think he would be best used off the bench. He could be a great 6 man type for us. The Wolves always seem to build leads with the starters only to lose them when the bench comes in. He would fix that problem because you wouldn't skip a beat when Dlo goes out. I think Ball can make other bench type guy better and get them easy buckets. Do you" waste" a top pick on a bench guy? I would if he can be our Ginobili or Harden in OKC.

Sorry was just thinking about these players lately and I tend to focus on the negatives this time of year. LOL this will be the post I turn to once the draft is over to pump myself up about our selection.

Horrible mock draft for the wolves

Right there is no way Rosas will pass on Lamelo at 3. He will draft him as future trade chip or trade down again with Knicks/Bulls. I don’t see Rosas taking Deni at 3, who I find a bit overated.

You do not draft someone at 3 as a future trade chip. They have more potential to lose value after the draft. You either have a deal cemented or you plan for your team.

Remember, they can trade him 30 days after he signs his contract. Drafting him for a future trade chip doesn't mean he has to play a single game for the Wolves. If they can't work out a deal on draft night, they can continue to negotiate after teams see how the draft played out.

It says nothing. To me it says their board is basically set and they don't see it changing much. They know who they'd take and they know what it'd take to trade.
