any chance you can summarize your thoughts?

Yeah... kinda three potential deals I could see

KO and 16 for Bertans and 10. Opens up the full MLE or close to it for them after they sign Kyrie... gets them a useful player with an expiring deal. Sub in THJ I guess if they want.

16, 28 for 10 and we assume McGee's deal. Same premise... gets them some ability to use MLE. If Ky walks they could waive and stretch Bertans and have some real space to work with.

16 and a future pick for 10. Gets them a prospect now and a pick they can use in a trade. Its a little spendy.
 
Does Hendricks have a mid range game? I could see Midricks catching on whether he's good or bad tbh.

This keeps being said but tell me specifics of this track record. Outside of Kuzma I genuinely can’t recall him being above and beyond other real good draft related posters.

Help refresh me.

Lu Dort is a good one.

I was in on him when he was mocked in the 20's then when he moved up I called on DL to move up to grab him and I said if he does, it will be his version of getting Kawhi Leonard. So yes, I'm claiming him.

Haha please go read back on how I stood on him vs you. Its a fun read. You major in Revisionist History.
 
I'm having a hard time finding any information on who Kobe Bufkin has worked out for. It's interesting that his camp is being selective. I'm wondering if he worked out with the Jazz the same day Gradey Dick did and we didn't hear about it. The only reason we know about Gradey is his posting on IG. Tony Jones made is sound as though someone else came in and worked out with Gradey. Then lo-and-behold David Locke goes public about his love for Bufkin a day or two later.

I think Jarace is the most likely to fall to us at 9. It doesn’t sound like ORL is all that interested in him. Whoever they don’t take at 6 out of Ausar/Hendricks will go 7 to IND.

I would be thrilled if Indiana took Hendricks at 7, but they could easily take Jarace there.
 
Can we just state that more than one person is allowed to really like a player (above consensus)?

Cy has an exceptional track record with these things generally speaking, despite his obvious troll work.

I think he's good, don't misconstrue, but I cant recall the exceptional results more so than someone like Ferg.

Not sure about that but everyone has some wins... I mean weren't you like all over Franz Wagner? Lots of folks here have some wins. Cy likes to do the hot take, I'm different, thing... which is fine. It results in him being loud wrong sometimes. We also tend to remember only the hits and forget the misses. He had love for some guys that have completely faded into oblivion.
 
I can see why people would have some doubts about Keyonte George. If he doesn't transition to a PG role, which he may not, and he doesn't become particularly efficient with better shot selection, then he becomes something like a Dinwiddie-type scoring guard. The key with him is projecting his efficiency in an NBA setting.

I had Franz 5th, which was higher than anyone iirc.

I was probably the loudest Jimmy Butler stan in the 2011 draft, too.
 
Also was in on Paolo being the clear #1 while people were getting too worried about him being comped to Julius Randle.
