Re: 2022 NBA Draft Open Thread
Daniels to Pels might be the best fit in the entire draft. A big PG to pair with CJ that does all the little things and won't be worried about being behind literally everyone else in the starting lineup for touches/shots.

Dieng or Daniels to NOP was going to be good options

IQ+Duren for Ivey?
Surely not adding Obi too.. but could happen with Grant gone.
I also wonder if the Knicks would overpay to build in dumping their expiring salary to the deal.

Heard that before, but both Detroit and Indiana were ideal fits for Ivey so it makes sense them wanting to keep him.

I think NY would be adding a lot more than just IQ to move from 11 to 4. Maybe 2 future 1sts.

If it makes you feel better, I was absolutely miserable when Cleveland sniped Darius Garland and Minnesota got stuck with Jarrett Culver. I knew right off the bat that Culver was a terrible pick and that Garland was a no-brainer stud.

Pistons beat writer for The Athletic. I’ve found him pretty decent overall in past history.

For sure, seems like an ideal piece for Raptors in replacement of OG. Canadian too

Paolo didn't work out for orlando either

As a Knicks fan, I hope he's being used for posturing.

Based on what exactly
High School Ranking Index data.
Average pick for a guy who goes #1 in HS is #3.5. So independent of all analysis in college, that's usually where a HS #1 gets picked on average. None of the other guys outside of 3 have the upside IMO besdes Dieng.
Interesting. I think he’s the ultimate boom or bust. Personally wouldn’t touch him in the top 5. We shall see.
