1. Paolo Banchero | Forward/Big [PF] | 6’10” 250 | Duke | Fr. | 19 (Age for 2022 Draft) I have doubts about all of the Top 3 guys, but...
I think people think too simplistically with Simmons. We did see him at his worst vs Atlanta, and yes, his shooting is a concern any way you slice...
I'm really split on who the top prospect is right now. I think Jabari Smith is still riding the wave of underexposure, while Banchero/Holmgren...
Garuba needs structure, on both ends, and we have neither. Our offense lacks a true PG and the ball-movement is generally not great (aside from...
Not sure what everyone is arguing about but I'm looking forward to seeing Sengun, Green and Christopher grow together. Throw in KJ, Garuba, Tate,...
Outside of the top-3, I do like Kendall Brown and Jaden Ivey a lot. Brown is like a bigger KJ with passing instincts. He's about 6'8" 215 with a...
He's not "polished" but that comes with experience. I'd still much rather listen to him than Worrell, Bullard or Calvin. What he lacks in Houston...
The real question is whether Garrison Mathews' son is in this draft
I like Ivey but I think people jump to Morant comparisons because he's also an explosive G with dreads. Ja is an elite ball-handler with a natural...
Love this kid's game. He has the physical tools, mindset/aggressiveness, and skillset to be great. His mid-range jumper is smooth, but his 3-ball...
Banchero is the best player in this class, though I wish we could've seen him in the 2nd half without cramps (and as locked in as he was in the...
My current Top-30: 1. Paolo Banchero | PF | 6'10" 250 | Duke | Fr. 2. Chet Holmgren | C/PF | 7'0" 195 | Gonzaga | Fr. 3. Jabari Smith Jr. | PF |...
I like Mathews because he plays like he chased 2 red bulls with some cocaine right before tip-off
I missed most of the game, why did Sengun only play 5 minutes today?
I think fans usually want to believe in guys with an unusual height + skill combo, but more often than not, guys with that skinny of a frame can't...
I know we're in the mix for a Top-2 pick right now so everyone is (rightfully) obsessing over Banchero vs Holmgren, but another guy to keep an eye...
I can understand having the opinion that Chet has higher upside and Banchero has a higher floor, but I'd have to disagree with their offensive...
I considered the Randle comparison a few years ago, but that was more because I hadn't seen him enough (plus he's grown a lot since then)...
KPJ is and has always been an attacking P/R off-guard who fits best with a steady G who can setup an offense and spot up (like a Haliburton, Lonzo...
I think you gotta go with one of the two bigs (Banchero/Holmgren) if they stay atop the board, and move from there (trade Wood?). I like Banchero...
