Sir, I do not understand why you would think "iSchool Entrepreneurial Academy" is a basketball factory school Keyonte George:...
That would actually be amazing.
Exactly. Tate's a nice player, but there's no such thing as an untouchable player on a 17 win team.
Fair points. I agree with very little bust potential. I liken it to someone like an Enes Kanter — productive, rotational big, with occasional for...
Benny Mac couldn't put the ball on the floor to save his life. Otherwise, that is another good "bad" outcome possibility. Higher likelihood is a...
I worry a bit about how much the game has changed - even truly elite paint defenders can be totally neutered (see Gobert… every year in the...
I think that’s a bit the point. Horford is very, very good. 5 time all star is an objectively great outcome at any pick. He’s also by no means...
Sure. If by that you mean take a higher risk, higher reward route. You either win, or you give yourself a chance fo play again. Avoid the...
But maybe we can draft the next Yao with healthy feet, and trade them for McGrady with a heart.
Agreed. Objectively, a 5-time all star (like Horford, and Bam will probably end up in that world too) is a great outcome for a #2 pick. That’d be...
You definitely have to squint and dream on it. It’s not a terrible thing to give a year, see what shakes out, and worst case scenario, you’re in...
The Al Horford comp is an interesting one to me. At his peak, he was a solid #2/#3 scorer, above average rebounder and even rim protector, one of...
Hard to say how good a shooter he is given small sample size, but the the athleticism, length, and playmaking is there. Seems to have a bit of a...
Sources told me he was waiting for a scholarship offer from Rice. It never came.
Good summary. He was a bad enough perimeter shooter that Rafer Alston was an undeniably superior shooter. @DaDakota used to love to reference...
In the discussion, an interesting thought crossed my mind — our rights to the Detroit pick may actually have far more value to Detroit than most...
Re: the Capela comparison, the two things Mobley has already shown way more of are overall handles and passing capabilities. As you noted --...
What is your take on Mobley’s ability as a passer? I see it is as a high potential area but of course is to be developed. If he can be a defensive...
Interesting thing I hadn't considered yet. If hypothetically Cade and Mobley go 1 and 2, what does Cleveland do? I think at #3 you go BPA, but...
Agreed — I still bet on upside with the #2 overall pick. Unless he is a total head case, I like Mobley’s floor as a defensive playmaker who is a...
