    I feel dumb. Can someone explain? Does Monk play like Lou Will?

    Durant, on the other hand, was a 6'9" pimple faced rookie and grew another 2 inches or so.

    He still has acne though.

    Jeez, he looks like me shooting in my driveway, ugh. Maybe it's the angle but that shot is flat and not pretty. Jackson is my least favorite of all our choices, I do not prize athleticism over skill.

    Maybe that shinny toy syndrome but if only we could draft ball AND jackson, the length on perimeter would be insane

    For all the talk of Monk being such a "bucket getter", I'm surprised his chart isn't prettier than that. I'm sure he'll still wind up being an elite scorer eventually, but looks like he needs to improve his efficiency.

    His at the rim color is off. It should be green as it's 61%. He's a a good high fly act around the paint and is probably the second best outside shooter behind Lonzo.

    Just seems like the left side of the court isn't his favorite though. Needs to work on his left hand I guess.

    Question for you guys; Danny Ainge offered 4 first rounders for Winslow a couple of years ago; we know, by all reports, that Jackson hasn't worked out for Boston. Nevertheless, any possibility that Ainge drafts Jackson at 1 or even trade the pick?

    Make me wonder. Anyway, they probably draft Fultz, but just throwing that out there...

    Never say never, but I give them a 95% chance of taking Fultz based on all I've seen/read/heard.

    The C Bags NEED another legit scorer to take the focus off of Mighty Mouse. They have to take Fultz.

    IT, Smart, Bradley, and Fultz makes for an interesting defense/offense guard rotation.

    Chances are they'll address that need through Free Agency with Hayward or Blake.
