Agreed. All 3 have skills we covet and translate well to the NBA. I think each has one little facet of their game that is better than the other two which makes them all desirable and tough to choose from.
People sleeping on Sengun going to get slept next year. I am drippppppped today beehotches. Paolo and Sengun about to be a twisted nipple version of Webber & Vlade. I'll see you at 17 Tari, to complete this championship frontline.
Magic has capable bigs. I have a feeling they’re taking Ivey who can be their dynamic combo guard of the future. With so many mediocre guards on the roster and an inefficient cole Anthony who has some potential they may make a splash in plans to move the other guards and clean up the roster at that position. Makes sense to me.
Chet won't be there at 3. It will be Banchero or Smith or Ivey. No matter who gets taken #1 I don't think Chet will be there at 3. WHICH SUCKS!!!
I'd be happy with that, but I think Williams will be gone before #17. Probably need to trade up with OKC or Charlotte. I'd be willing to give up Wood and #17 for #12 or #13 in order to get Williams.
Murray has been my pick for steal of the draft as people are sleeping on him. 2 way player with better handles than smith. Can handle on the break coast to coast and shoot 3. To me he’s overall better than Smith. But smith is a deadly shooter and if he simplifies his game can be a great role player maybe star the likes of Klay Thompson
I posted this in Nooks big board thread, but if the draft is about upside, why wouldn’t Orl or OKC take sharpe? You get the kid with Kobe like potential, and you’re in prime position for the real prize in the next draft. maybe the Orlando front office isn’t secure enough with its job to take this risk, but Presti sure is.
Yea its definitely possible. I just don’t see them passing on Chet tho. He’s the type of player they were looking for in Mo Bamba and Johnathan Issac. Same with Jabari.
I think if Smith and Chet are gone Murray is the way to go. Many are undervaluing him. 2 way player who in my opinion is a more well rounded player than Smith. Smith is a special shooter though.
I would trade up for Eason, trading one of Wood,Tate,Gordon,Martin. Adding much needed size to the front line.
Watching the playoff, you know two way player that can defend multiple position is so valuable. Murray is NBA ready. I think people put him lower because he's older therefore lower upside.
I can't see Banchero / Sengun together at all. Can we package Sengun + 17 to nab Duren? Alternatively, I could see Sengun initiating the high post offense and having Ivey / Green cut all over the place.
Some interesting trade possibilities down the top 5. — Kings at 4. They’re in a win now position so they likely won’t want Sharpe. Ivey doesn’t make a ton of sense with Fox and Davion Mitchell. What would they give to move up 1 spot and get one of the top 3? Would they trade an unprotected ‘23 pick to move up 1 spot and get Banchero (or Holmgren / Jabari)? — Pistons at 5. A lot of people said Banchero was perfect for them. Same discussion as the Kings - what would they give to get Banchero instead of one of the wings?
If they don't trade the pick they shouldn't try to be cute. Just pick either one of the top 3 that fall to 3.
