Coach Budenholzer told me he's only going to trade for Noel if he cuts his hair. Dejan Bimble fucked around with this message at 22:02 on Jun 4, 2016 |

The ESPN mock had Marquese Chriss to the Raptors forever but now it looks like he's gonna go higher, so which 4s are gonna be there at 9? Are they gonna be reaching for Skal/Sabonis?

I feel like you want to draft a guy hoping he's more than a three & D dude, especially since you don't really know if a guy can do that usually until he's been in the league 3-4 years.

Skal is a perfect pick for all of the teams from 10-12 He could be the super long, athletic, switchable, rim protecting 4 for Milwaukee He could provide the stretch at 4 Orlando craves, and he's the sort of high ceiling prospect that Utah needs to be a serious contender at some point. And all of them are bad enough to pick a player who'll need 3 years to learn how to play basketball.

I do think about thinking about changing my mind on Chriss. He might end up fine, but there is something about him that screams NO! to me. I did a draft game thread last year. I think i got 2nd to metapod maybe? Is anyone interested in doing another?

He's basically making the same points we've made as a body in the last couple pages, his upside is tantalizing, his downside is obvious and all of the observable makers of desire and basket intelligence are missing. To return to the Skal comparison, Skal looks like he has no loving idea what he's doing, which is preferable to knowing what to do but not feeling like doing it Dejan Bimble fucked around with this message at 19:59 on Jun 8, 2016 |

He thinks he'll be around the league for awhile but not worth a top 10 pick because of what the QOs will cost. So get yourself ready for Portland to sign him in about 2-3 years And he clearly doesn't think Chriss is a boom or bust guy at all, another key difference between what people are saying.

Ekpe Udoh is in his list, a casualty of the achilles tear. RIP Ekpe, you had a hilarious nose. Skal doesn't know how to play, Marqueese doesn't seem to care, I would have more faith in teaching a young Haitian boy the ins and outs of positioning than teaching someone to care.

Does height in shoes vs height in bare feet matter? As long as both heights are measured at the same time, the players will be wearing shoes in game, no?

TheFallenEvincar posted:who is it Dejounte Murray might be the PG version of Kawhi. The Celtics need to trade at least one of their picks if they can't stash it, so that might be a grade partner for him, but he might already be gone. Malachi Richardson is a possibility. He's canceled all his late lottery workouts which probably means he has a few promises in the mid draft.

Lakers Ingram workout reportedly went well, but they usually do (Mudiay is the only one I can remember it being leaked that he played poorly). -- ESPN posted a bit of the 538 projection (I guess they're calling it the ESPN projection model now) http://espn.go.com/blog/statsinfo/post/_/id/119567/a-guide-for-espns-nba-draft-projection-model We haven't had enough time really to see how good these are yet, despite ESPN's claim that it's effective, but it does project Simmons as probably the 4th best collegiate pick of the draft, with the highest bust potential of the guys they featured. Hopefully they post more than the top 5 projections at some point.
