Another bad pick. WOW NBA teams are screwing up. Kid won't do anything for 3-4 years.

 

[elw4corps]

five points a game equals 4th overall pick. Makes sense

 

[Vitamike]

bad pick for Boston.

To be traded?

 

[The Derski]

The Suns' pick is in and the Suns select... Dragan Bender, PF - Croatia

Are thought the Suns were trying to win now. This kid isn't even close to being ready for the NBA.

 

[Black Adam]

5.6 ppg average at 4th overall. Kill me

Minn and Bulls talking trade. Boston is still trying to get Butler.

Will Minny regret not giving up Zach for Jimmy?

 

[SFGRTB]

Will Minny regret not giving up Zach for Jimmy?

Certainly.

KD has always been a 3 in the NBA and always been guarded by smaller guys (KD is almost a legit 7 ft.). There's no right way to guard a guy like him. But if you put a PF on him, he'll absolutely murder them.

Saying KD is now going to punish small 3's is like saying he hasn't been doing it his whole career. That's why he's one of the best 3 players in the NBA. It's because he's virtually unguardable. Putting a slower PF on him, would let him just attack the basket every single play. And guess what, no one could rotate over to help because you have the two best shooters in the NBA on the wings.

I see it the same way you do but with hom at the 4. You don't think Dray has an advantage over most 3's? Now if you do then you end up with the advantage at the 3 AND 4 positions with the best shooters in the league on the wings.
