The Official Cunningham vs Suggs Thread #Tank4Either

Suggs is getting very overrated. Great college player, does a lot of things well. Don't see his game translating very well to the NBA, if we're expecting him to be a star at the next level. As a smaller guard, he's not a great shooter, doesn't have a great triple threat game. Cade is the #1 choice, but I'd rank Green/Mobley above him too.

Weaknesses: Does everything very well but nothing out of this world … On the small side. Lacks tremendous size and length … Lacks great body strength. His body is solid but not overpowering … Foot speed and quickness is strong but wont stand out on the next level …

We went from 7th to 8th.

Quirk about the draft is the whatever place you are in the draft order isn’t the likely spot you will be in during the lottery. It’s the pick prior.

So even though we’re 8th. Our most likely spot we’ll pick from is 9th. Had we stayed in 7th it would be the 8th pick.

Late lotto teams that pass up on davion mitchell are going to regret it

Mitchell is NBA ready. Already killing slow bigs on mismatches. Great defender too.

What the hell is the deal with the possession arrow? The kid on Baylor clearly had the ball on the floor but the arrow was pointing to the Zags. How does that trash even work?

Yeah I’ve been high on him for quite some time. He’d be perfect for us. Would love to somehow trade for a late lotto pick in addition to our own

I would trade Boucher + our 2 SRPS. Hopefully that’s enough

You could say the same things (except for being on the small side) about Brandon Roy coming out of college.

Whichever team loses the initial jump ball gets the possession arrow first, and then the arrow switches back and forth for each subsequent "jump ball". I actually like it, as it eliminates poor tosses.

Maybe could trade the 2 SRPS for a late 1st to make the package look a bit more appealing

Yes, you could. That's where the quote is from. :wink:

We gotta take Mayer from Baylor with one of our 2nd rounders. Raps in desperate need of a player with a mullet.

I actually like his game :lol:

I don't think he plays enough

Post #1859 » by **Reeko** » Tue Apr 6, 2021 2:05 am

Can Baylor keep this defense up the whole game? It's suffocating, and I imagine exhausting.

Mark_83 · Post #1860 » by **Mark_83** » Tue Apr 6, 2021 2:12 am

Timme keeping Butler in front of him is pretty impressive. He reminds me of a combination of Marc Gasol and that old white dude at the Y with his knees taped up balling all over the more athletic young bucks. lol
