Hayward probably 6th after you swap Draymond for PG13
Favors 7th or 8 after you insert Draymond and still have to put Timmy ahead of Derrick
and Gobert 6th after Drummond


I knew I was gonna make a lot of friends disagreeing but they're not that far off but still got their YET
 
I was really impressed by Kyle Anderson.

Draymond? Ya the second best player on the NBA Champions, one of the best two way players in the NBA, ya that Draymond.
DeAndre? Seriously he's a more advanced version of Gobert and exactly what we want Gobert to become, DeAndre is already there and has been there for awhile
Drummond - Close I could have my mind changed here
and Bosh - Dude was avg 21 and 7 before he got hurt, I don't see your argument there

Just because he is in the finals does not make green better than favors. Green is a system guy. Deandres defensive metrics are not too favorable TBH.

Hahahaha

Gobert getting to DeAndre's level would mean he's regressed.
 
Notes from the game.

Hanlan reminds me of Ian Clark. Either he is being misused or he just isn't quite good enough. I am sure he will get more chances in SL in Vegas.

Hood made a bunch of really difficult shots tonight. He also finished more plays through contact. He is going to be a big time threat off the bench this year. Defensively Anderson was giving him the business.

Chris Johnson is a cut above most of the players here. He can play intelligent, athletic D and hit open 3's. His passing and ballhandling are limited but that is fine for his price.

If we are really getting Neto-Cotton should be concerned about his performance tonight. He wasn't that good. He also is only manipulating the D to get his own shot.

Cooley put in another tough workman like effort in the paint.

Anderson was killing us most the night. Chris Johnson and JJ O'Brien were pretty effective against him. Hood and everyone else got eaten up.

If JJ O'Brien could hit stand-still open 3's his defense, rebounding and passing would put him in the league.

#81 Johnson would do 3 great plays in row. He would then follow up 3 bad plays.

He got the loudest/best cheers at the game over anyone else

I like Kawhi, but I don't really think he's better than Hayward. Put Kawhi on an average team, and I don't think he can be a first or second-option offensive player. Great defender though. I could see an argument for Paul George being better than Hayward due to his length and defense, but it's worth seeing what he look like coming off that gruesome injury.

At center, I'm not sure Andre Drummond is better overall than Gobert. They're pretty close. Lets see what they look like this year. Gobert could also be a push with DAJ this year. DAJ has a few more moves in the post right now.

Solid post

I like CJ. He should stick. Where is the guy say Cotton is der berst evar?
 
Thing I really love about Hood is he has a shot for every situation. He could be double or triple teamed and still get off a great comfortable shot and look

Lol, so you wanted to nitpick about not top 5 and then say 2 of them are top 6? Gtfo. Don't act like top 5 on those 3 players was some silly homer comment. All 3 players are close enough to top 5 that you can make a legitimate case.

Kawhi is a transcendent defender, though. Like, waaaay good. I'd have a hard time taking Hayward over him, even with my homer goggles on.

Obviously Hayward can do things on O that Kawhi can't, but that defense... braugh, it's good.

Gimme Gobert over Drummond any day.
