    this is the guy you move up for. We’ll have to get to around #10/11 to get him at this point.

    Tari Eason is key to our draft imo.

    Especially if #3 is Banchero or Chet.

    Not so much if Jabari.

    Go get him

    They've been missing a guy like this since Harry left.

    Add Suns to list of teams wanting to trade up for Eason.

    I am ALL IN for Tari Eason. And I would trade multiple assets to trade up to get him.

    Absolutely needs to be a Houston Rocket.

    No matter who picked at #3.

    I really like Eason, but at the end of the day, he doesn't have to be the second pick. If the cost to move up to get him is too high, don't do it. There are other quality defensive wings or bigs they could get with that second pick who I'd be perfectly satisfied with as a consolation prize.

    Why not Jabari? A Smith/Eason draft would be perfect for the starting lineup.

    Of course. But Jabari is likely going to ORL so I don't see the point in wasting time talking about him when he will never be an option.

    Hope teams drop him on their draft boards because he is obviously too right hand dependent and reckless.

    But highly doubt it.

    Draft this kid Stone, I'm a HUGE fan of his CHAOS defense, and offensive upside!!!!



    "Defending everything, everywhere, all at once, Tari Eason is pervasive, both in his event creation, transforming calculated gambles into timely scores, as well as with his potential to guard against multiple actions across multiple positions."

    "Per 100 possessions, Eason averaged 4.5 steals, 2.5 blocks, and shot 36 percent from three on 5.5 attempts per game."

    Everyone is looking for the next Jason Tatum or Kawai Leonard.

    If we can get Eason we will be set from SG to PF.

    Green
    Eason
    Banchero
    Just hope we can draft victor next year and we are a play in team.

    I think Dyson Daniels should be the guy if we get Jabari and move up.

    Need to start rumor that Eason is not OKC fan because he's from Seattle. :D
