MourningView posted:That's not saying a ton but yeah. He's not a great shooter yet but I don't think it's a huge weakness I was sort of under the impression that Fultz was actually the best fit for Philly given that he has a decent shot and has the ability to play off the ball (seeing as Simmons will probably be the one initiating the offense).

Somebody tell me about Frank Ntilikina. I've literally never seen him play but on paper he seems to have great two way potential if his 3 point shot continues to develop. Also seems like he can fit in Philly with Ben Simmons seeing as he's played off the ball most of this season.

aBagorn posted:Can people who watch more college bball than me talk to me about Jonathan Isaac? I'm hearing Brandon Ingram comparisons, is this true? My casual observations: His per 100 possession numbers are actually better than Ingram's. He's lengthy and has a huge ceiling defensively. Not quite as good a shooter as Ingram from 3 point range but has a better overall FG% and is a much better free throw shooter. His rebounding is pretty loving elite for his position too. Overall I think he's better defensively too, racks up a good amount of steals and blocks. Basically, I know he plays on a better team than Ingram did and I might be talking out of my rear end but I prefer him as a prospect when comparing the two. I think there's a pretty good chance that had he been in last years class he would've went #2.

aBagorn posted:Thanks. Yeah his length and defensive potential is what intrigues me as a Sixers fan. I'm imagining the Sixers being able to get him and Ntilikina and having all that length and defense (with Simmons and Embiid) If I could have any combination of two players in this draft not including Fultz, Isaac and Ntilikina are the exact two I'd take (I'm a philly fan as well)

What are Lonzo Ball's weaknesses outside of his insane shooting form? Everything about him seems good to great outside of the shooting form and his FT%, but those things alone make me really hesitant to like him.

Smith is insanely athletic but we've only seen glimpses of it so far. People speculate it might be because of his ACL tear last year and he's just not all the way back yet, which seems really plausible. I love me some Jonathan Isaac though.

Josh Jackson is up to 35% from 3 this year. Free throw percentage is still poo poo, but god drat is it a good sign to see his shot coming around. I'd be really tempted by him at #1. Am I a dumbass? And I love Fultz.

Somebody earlier brought up Josh Jackson's shooting being a red flag because his fair 37% from 3 doesnt match up with his bad 55% from the line...but isn't it a huge positive that he's gotten so much better from deep as the season has gone on?

Jota posted:Completing ignoring his hosed up shot, I don't want the Sixers to draft Ball almost entirely because he's ugly as gently caress and I find looking at his hosed up Frankenstein face and gangly body unpleasant and would not like to have to do it 82 times a year. Lonzo on the Sixers would be fun as gently caress. He's behind Fultz and Jackson on my Sixers wish list but I'd be more than happy if Philly came away with him. Lonzo, Simmons, and Saric on the floor together would vine heaven.

C. Everett Koop posted:They draft two more guys who don't play for two years, trade Embiid for a sack of potatoes and max out Jahlil Okafor #trusthteprocess I think their decision to take Dario and let him develop over seas for two years worked out pretty well. Embiid is a risk you take every time.

Somebody tell me I'm not crazy to think that a lot of Dennis Smith's issues can be fixed by nba coaching/a better supporting cast/giving a poo poo. Or is this me talking myself into him in case Philly doesn't get a top 3 pick?

I don't normally like microwave scoring guys like Monk who offer shooting and not much else but considering how good of a shooter he is and how perfectly he'd fit with the current Sixers core I'd love to leave the draft pick with him.

kiimo posted:Wouldn't the Sixers best case be Fultz and Josh Jackson? Yes. That's the wet dream, but If they end up with a guard and wing prospect in the first 7 picks (let's say Monk and Isaac) I'd be ecstatic. I get the LAL pick next year unprotected looks great, but give me that poo poo this year. This draft has 8 or 9 *really* good prospects that also happen to fit the Sixers' needs.

aBagorn posted:So I've been turning the corner about Monk. He's way more athletic than I gave him credit for and I could definitely see him playing next to Simmons, especially in a scenario where you can surround him with Covington and another defensive minded wing/guard. I've talked myself into every player in the top ten for Philly except Tatum, Fox, and Lauri.

If the Sixers end up with say picks 1 or 2 and 6, would a backcourt of Fultz and Fox or Ball and Fox fit with Cov/Ben/Embiid?

Ghetto SuperCzar posted:I don't really see Isaac playing the 3 in the NBA, at which point I would see Markennen being a lot more valuable. I guess that all depends on if you think you can shove Simmons to the 3 on defense. That's potentially a pretty awful lineup on the perimeter tho, which is what gives me pause on that duo. I guess it helps to have Embiid protecting the paint though. Edit: I mean that lineup is bad defensively on the perimeter. It's actually pretty awesome offensively.

Dejan Bimble posted:Isaac isn't a 3, he's not agile enough, he's just a very skinny 4 who should be able to switch pretty easily on defense. His lack of in between game is a DOOMSAYER, he really needs to learn it to avoid becoming an Ibaka. He's being projected as a rich man's Jon Leueur but it's hard to say, his guards never passed to him at florida state. That's a great point RE: It making zero sense to draft Simmons and Fultz and taking the ball out of their hands.
