makes a lot of sense to make some big short-term payments to vets to be a play-in level team before you have to start paying all your lotto picks....
slight disagree. the draft isn't a crapshoot, imo. the expected values are pretty well-understood. teams opt to go high risk/reward or not, and...
they sold their own picks during the near-term, right? so they can afford to overpay vets while they figure out which young guys to keep. if i...
houston would have to strike out pretty hard to end up going after our RFAs, and reaves is a silly pursuit. there are numbers at which i'd let...
just clicked for me: very meyers leonard-ish, especially if he develops the standing three.
rose, at this point, is purely insurance/leadership a la rondo in our last go around. if we lost schroder, i'd consider him on a one-year vet...
jhs is actually a little bigger at 19 than reaves is now, i think. as for handling contact, i think that is learned over time. if it ends up we...
not sure i understand the comment. what i was really implying is that an elite 3 and d sg like kcp often starts out as someone people think has...
true. i mentioned brogdon as a comp earlier, and another is billups. both big, not super athletic, but athletic enough. high iq, and in the...
he moves a little stiffly, but he's large and has some skill. i question whether he's as good as huff, but he's worth a look. saw chicago picked...
feel like the lotto was chock-full of boom/bust athletic types, so jhs wasn't part of this year's draft zeitgeist. i think nobody sees star...
kcp is twice the athlete. that's why he was undrafted and kcp was a top-10 pick when he came out. well, this guy makes a ton of them, and i...
it sure reads like we tried like hell to trade the pick and couldn't find a deal we liked. the guys i hoped would fall to us didn't make it, so i...
don't have time to listen. do they ever say who the lakers should have taken instead, in their opinion? i think i would have tried to trade down...
jhs is a distant third, imo. russell was a three-level scorer with great vision, and lonzo was elite as both a defender and a passer. but that's...
yeah, first thing i noticed. he's got the balance and obviously great eye hand coordination. i think he can do it. it's a little troubling that...
no 1st rounder on a rental like that. even swap. that's fine. they're a sinking ship. i'm sure they hung up on us about westbrook mutliple...
bamba for patrick williams bamba/beasley for derozan dlo S&T/bamba for lavine i'm actually sketchiest on the last one, as i don't like having a...
i did limited pre-draft research because he was consistently mocked ahead of our pick, and i wasn't impressed in part because i didn't realize he...
how does a guy like this get all the way to undrafted? because he's 24? all-conference defender and good shooter at high volume. we don't have...
