    Agreed. I don't like these super high end comps, but I definitely think it's worth looking at guys who put up similar stats in similar...

    Definitively differentiating a guy’s p90 vs p95 vs p99 outcome is a fool’s errand I agree. But there is something meaningful to the...

    We want the best player in this draft that's not a non-shooter, right? Freshman or Sophomore college seasons since 2008 with >10 Box...

    Reed put up a better BPM at 19 than Jimmer did at 22. Was also a miles better defender. I'll say this, Reed is one of the very few...

    The last point is important. Situational fit definitely matters, and GM’s like Presti prioritize it highly for a reason. Would the...

    I think a lot of the doubts about Sheppard as a prospect come from misunderstanding the type of prospect he is. He's not a "tools"...

    I'm of the opinion that at 6'0-6'3, your length actually doesn't matter all that much on defense. At that position you won't be playing...

    I don't disagree with you. I'm high on Sheppard. Washington is almost definitely taking a primary on-ball guy, a wing swing, or a C...
