    Eason NBA comp is a 6'8 Thybulle but with better offense/3ball.

    Leave no Stone unturned to draft him with 2nd FRP.

    I agree with @Medicine N Music. Trade up, Mr. Stone, and grab Tari Eason. You won't regret it and neither will we.

    No to Tari Eason...even at 17.

    We're not at that stage of our rebuild.

    Give me Banchero and any of Eason/Daniels/Sochan and I'll be happy. This team needs smarter players.

    Would love the idea of Banchero/Sochan. All business commitment type of players. KPJ/Green/Sengun could use some influences like that.

    Eason is almost a must for me. I feel like he has potential to be similar to Kawhi Leonard. His floor, to me, as a prospect is Patrick Williams. I truly can't believe he might be available outside of the top 10. Eason makes me wonder if trading down might be the best option. Maybe trading 3 to Detroit for 5+Grant and then Grant to Portland for 7? Is walking away with AJG and Eason better than Banchero? Obviously would rather move up for Eason to have my cake and eat it too but do wonder about that option.

    Banchero-Sochan will absolutely destroy Silas coveted spacing.

    Invaluable in depth information. This shows his game awareness needs to improve. It's not bad imo. There's a possibility he made slide to 17 because of this. I'll still take him.

    This breakdown definitely shows Eason's limitations. Plus, he had a couple of games with 6 TOs (in 25 or so minutes of play) so that's worrisome.
    Hopefully, the scouts will be scared off by the red flags.

    I guess they could have similar worries about Jeremy Sochan. When you compare Sochan and Eason's game by game numbers, they are pretty similar, except Sochan was only a 58.9% FT shooter. Wildly inconsistent from week to week.

    Sochan seems to play within himself more. He's steadier than Eason. That gives him the edge in my opinion. Eason has a little more upside as a scorer. They won't be stars, they will be very valuable forwards imo.

    If we trade down I'd rather get Duren and Eason.

    Sochan is the better prospect cuz he is only 18 vs Eason who is 21. But the diff is Sochan seems to be better at pf while Eason is better at sf.

    I kinda disagree with your assessment that Sochan wont be a star. He is only 18, we dont know how good he can be. Guys like Duren, Sochan, Kendall Brown etc, you cant put a cap on them imo cuz they are athletic af, lengthy and extremely young. They got time to hone their skills in the NBA, it all just depends on their work ethic and passion to improve.
