2023 NBA Draft Megathread

Ausar, Whitmore, Walker, Black, Wallace, Hendricks, Cissoko, Rupart, L. Miller. If some of those are a stretch then trade back.
LOL .. you can get half of those guys with the Minny pick there’s absolutely no reason to pass on Keyonte or trading back.
 
Lol that is a jump to say I wouldnt take scoot when I say I would take a big wing over keyonte. Hyperbole much?
You said you’re on board with drafting big athletic wings. You didn’t just say over Keyonte.

I get it. I really do. I just wouldn’t pass on someone because they were 6’5 and not 6’7. Extremely trivial.
 
Scoot is shorter than George and a worse shooter.
Scoot is a waaaaaaaay better prospect than George though and will be a pg. George may not have the playmaking chops to be a pg.

Scoot isn’t super tall but he’s got a long wingspan and is built like frigging Lebron. He’s a GREAT athlete… George is not considered to be a very good athlete.

I’m fine with taking Keyonte… I’m just not sure what he is… if he can play PG then he’s intriguing… if he’s a smallish sg then I’m cool going another route.

Of course he’s a better prospect. He’s 6’2 though and I promise some people are against taking any players under 6’7 lol.

Scoot isn’t a smallish tweener sg though… he’s like Lebron and Ja had a baby.
 
I’m using Scoot to prove my point not diss him.
I understand I just think they are so different it doesn’t do what you want. George is probably the guy in the top 10 I don’t feel like I have the best read on and the value proposition changes wildly if he’s a sg instead of a pg. I’m guessing that’s the problem a lot of folks have with him.

Scoot is very much a pg.
