Nice list. Deff agree with you on ja morant being better than Zion

Philly has a 1% chance to land the top pick.
Boston has a 0% chance to land the top pick, but like a 3.6 or 3.7% chance to land 2-4.

I'm not sold on Clarke. He's a tweener with no jumper; where does he fit in the modern NBA?

 

[DJ Fieri]

The site I saw said May 19th, but perhaps I didn't look at it long enough - either way that is only three weeks away.

The site you looked at?

This is your 1st draft that you have watched closely?

 

[DJ Fieri]

I didn't play in college but I almost made the Vancouver Grizzles back in '97 after a couple years overseas. I didn't play though, I was drunk. Oh yeah & I beat Lavar Ball in a game of 1 on 1 once.

Lies, WAMY

 

[DJ Fieri]

I really wanna see ja morant with booker that would be fun

I think it's what they should do also.

 

[Wamu]

You caught me.

You definitely have a mental disorder. Get some professional help before you become violent with your arrogant stupidity

So you've never watched the draft before......good to know.

Based on all of 3 times I watched Gonzaga, He fits pretty well, IMO.

He is a mobile big who should be able to defend the perimeter as he is an elite rim protector. Probably like Tristan Thompson with fewer rebounds but more blocks.

That is a high quality role player, possibly starter or 20 -25 minute bench guy in the modern game. And if he develops offensively, he has upside to be more than TT.

Most teams in the late lottery would gladly take that.

I haven't paid much attention to the draft this year. Contrary to the retarded statements by DJ the little mamma's bitch, I have seen my share and simply chose to ignore him like I usually do. The only one that seems to be on the radar that I have heard about is Zion and like I said - you never know what actually happens. The Lakers have had several good picks and Brandon Ingram, Lonzo Ball have both turned out to be less then spectacular.

I'm trying to find a player that resembles R.J. Barrett.

Seems like a pretty athletic kid, very good defender, he can score in the paint and is a great finisher but decent shooter. I guess him being in college only one year, it's harder to find a comparison bc there have been a lot of guys who struggled at shooting and became very good-great outside shooters. Kawhi is a perfect example.

Some guys that I think he resembles is Michael Redd but could be a much better defender.
DeMar Derozan?
Jalen Rose?
I hope he isn't Andrew Wiggins but the comparison is there as well

NBADraftNet has his comp as Danny Granger

hahahaha don't get me wrong Granger had a couple of great years but damn, that would be a disappointment.

They also note that he may have peaked in high school as one of his negatives (and that would be a BIG negative).

I mean they compared Kawhi to Mbah a Moute/Gerald Wallace.

I think DeAndre Hunter's scouting report looks a lot like Kawhi's

To be fair, Kawhi coming out of college had little offensive game, so those comps weren't as out of whack as they seem now. Hunter has shown some flashes offensively.

Bradley Beal is what you hope for...a rich man's Josh Richardson
