Pick a Side: Rudy or Don

[Handlogten's Heros]

That would be cool and all but how are his hand pads?

Oh he will go through the deep dive hand pad analysis. It’s actually my number one concern

 

[Jingled]

Shams says he doesn't think they will tear down the team if they fail to make it past the second round again but will likely tweak the roster. They start talking about the Jazz at about the 5 minute mark.

Chet scares me. He’s a guy that gets GMs fired… either the GM that drafts him because he can’t stay healthy… or the GMs that pass on him because they were scared… then he turns out to be awesome.

I’d be doing all sorts of medical and biometric balance beam studies to get as much info as possible.

Lmao it's DLs burner account

Rich man's Poku... right? But what even is that?

This is not real analysis or using primary sources, but I thought it was interesting and entertaining:



Simmons and Russillo riff about the idea of "which players have unexpectedly played their last season" and Donovan gets first mention. The criteria is pretty unclear, but again, it's interesting/entertaining.

Less mobile AK

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

But IDK I think Hilmgreen is going to be great and pretty unique. He's tough, defends, can shoot, help side D. He just got so much to his game he's going to overcome the whole rail then part.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

AK couldn't shoot and didn't work. Can't build an AK profile without the cornerstones.

Yeah, but they both have a certain flash to their games and just overall uniqueness combined with being rail thin help side block machines.

Bill is a major Jazz hater... I take nothing away from the stuff that he says.

Less mobile AK

That's kinda what I think... like a little less athletic but a better shooter... but the main thing is he seems to love basketball. I think AK liked basketball but it wasn't his life.

The weight and body just have a concerning look... He's not as fluid as KD but maybe he can get stronger and stay wiry... I think Zinger had injury history pre-draft but I see some of that as well. Even AK dealt with injuries but not sure it was ever a weight/strength thing.

I'd take Smith #1 and feel amazing about it. For me with Chet it gets interesting when comping to Banchero and Ivey/Sharpe. I'm not the biggest Banchero fan but its pretty catastrophic to miss when you are drafting that high and I think Banchero is pretty safe. I'd almost want to pick 3 or 4 and have Chet fall to me rather than take him 1 or 2 if I were a GM.

I think AK loved it, but Sloan made him fall out of love with it

Maybe so.

 

[Hekate]

Chet should go 1. His help defense is going to be super helpful for teams and he at least projects to be effective from multiple spots on offense even if it's not high level or as consistent.

Is Russillo?

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Is Russillo?

He's pretty objective imo and he watches more than Bill does these days.

I just think the floor is so high for Jabari and there aren't any questions there. He could be a rich man's Jerami Grant or a Jayson Tatum with a tad more size. Chet does some good things for sure but I just think its harder to fit him than Smith.

Or Rudy Gay...

I think AK loved playing basketball, I also think he hated work which is how one actualizes their full potential.

Nah that jumper is wet

Hearskys mom kind of wet?
