bufkin had a really good year and is still very young. he'll declare.
lol. dropped 23 on 20 shots (not great, but not bad efficiency) and had 12 rebs and 4 assists and played very good defense. great players even when the shot isn't falling, they get to the line (and make their FTs), they rebound, defend and they make plays.
Yeah Sidy has cooled off. Still high on him. Leonard does the dirty work that is very repeatable game to game. I like that he does the basics well
inconsistency from Sidy doesn't bother me much - it's normal with young players and i still really like his length, skillset and athleticism. but that's why miller's consistency is so impressive - 18 year olds just don't do what he's doing at this level with this sort of consistency.
That would be great for us. It means it would push a better player down to us if he goes top-10. Also, he moved Miller up to #2. Flip at 25 is hilarious. Let’s just remember this is one guys big board.Henricks now up to 10th.

Its just weird that if he is a lotto talent on the rise we wouldn't be interested in him with a pick outside the lottery.
I think it's a pretty fluid draft in some ranges. I don't have those ranges completely nailed down yet. Flip could move to the point where I think he is worth that 2nd pick for the Jazz. Nothing is in stone for me right now other than Wemby at #1.
KOC has actually had him at #10 for a while. He's been on the wagon.Henricks now up to 10th.

Oh ok I swear I saw the ringer recent mock that had him at #14 before..
I think unless Sidy has amazing measurements or does awesome at the Combine or something that we will have a chance to get one of these guys with the Philly pick. At very least I think we can package the Philly pick with something to pop up 5-6 spots and nab one of them. I still think NBA scouts and front offices are generally slow to adapt and really risk averse. So the G League guys likely slip a little further than they should. Happy to get either with that pick or a combo of the pick and some other asset.
KOC does his draft board and then they do a mock. The mock still has him #14... Not sure if that's how KOC thinks the teams would draft or how he would draft considering team needs.
Not to beat the Duncan Robinson dead horse... but say you took the Philly pick and traded for Robinson, #20 (where the heat are right now) and got another future first... Could also do something smaller of course. They are a partner in that range we could help... whether its Lowry or Duncan.
I’ve been super uninterested in second round guys this year. I don’t think we pick up a second rounder with a potential roster crunch between adding three firsts, the guys we have returning, and potentially adding a couple other vets.
