    KVH was longer and a much better shooter going all the way back to high school in diamond bar though

    A tall-ish white dude with a highlight reel that consists mostly of dunks smells like bust from a mile away. Joe Alexander anyone?

    Hopefully, he can bring Tatiana Maslany to some Rocket games.

    The way Dekker runs the floor reminds me of Kevin Willis.

    He plays with such a high motor and tenacity like he has a chip on his shoulder. I see bright things ahead of his future

    no, bigs are.

    Julius Randle has played one NBA game.

    Meanwhile, three out of the last four ROYs are PGs. And 5 out of the last 7.

    Was my 2nd choice behind Tyus Jones.

    Think he makes Ariza trade possible.

    This. We pretend to know basketball but we should ultimately trust the guy who is paid (and has performed) to do his job.

    Joe Alexander barely learned how to ball 4 years before being drafted and doesn't have half of the skills Dekker has. If you're gonna make lazy white ball player comparisons do a little homework first.

    Evans plays SF more than he plays PG. Rose has been injury-prone. MCW tanked his sophomore season. Some get lucky. Overall though, forwards in drafts often do better. There are some guards that stand out (I.e. Lillard, Irving, etc.) but many more mid-1st round big men have panned out than mid-1st round PGs.
