After watching one Wisconsin game today (vs BYU), he strikes me as almost the most bland center possible. He shoots 3s at a decent enough clip to wonder if he can be a stretch 5 professionally, but everything else seems to be just about as "just good enough" to earn a look. Nothing exciting.

Interested if you have any more of a take on him. Listened to the No Ceilings 2nd-round livestream and they thought Tonje has no hope of doing anything in the NBA. Barlowe brothers, on the other hand, thought that all the Jazz wings are going to have to bring it to try not to get shown up by...

I don't want to make it seem like I disagree with you here, because I largely don't. But can you recall any other (or more than 5 situations over the past 40 years) where an agent (or the player himself) has led a player to sit out summer league because they were unhappy with where they were...

It's interesting that Realgm (usually my go-to source for who employs which agent), lists Cooper as the agent rather than this real (NBA approved) agent.

At the risk of turning this into a semantical issue, it depends what you mean by "this". My takeaway from Tony's article is that pre-draft antics and positioning are frequent. But if this issue extends beyond the draft itself to issues like not reporting to the team, it would make the situation...

I think I was wrong in saying it's Garry Parrish who made this charge originally. Seems like it was Jeff Goodman.

Wasn't the charge (I think from Gary Parrish) not that he was asking for money from teams for interviews, but that he was asking media for money for he himself (Cooper) to be interviewed on camera? Or have you heard differently?

Isn't he one of the guys who has had some lingering buzz on him by some draft analysts?

Yes

combine measurements say 6-4.75 barefoot, -- same as Tre, Kasparas, with a wingspan between those two.

At summer league, it's quite possible that both Clayton and Tonje will be better than Bailey. They were arguably better players this past season. Just the age difference, of course.

Wasn't Givony the one who really lit the Filipowski fire last year? Hope this turns out to be the same level of nothing.

Not going to lie, not real pumped after this draft -- but given my track record, that probably means we made out like bandits. Tough-shot takers (and hopefully makers) seems like a little bit like more of the same. Still did relatively little to help team passing. Defense seemingly an...

Wow -- really going after the tough shot makers

Did this ever get posted?

Like Cody's college 3-pt %, should we really be making bets based on that sample size?

Hey, without the break until the second round we may not have gotten all the Filipowski "why did he fall" content last year? Paid for itself in attention just in one year.

Oh no. I may have to rethink my Fears stanning. :oops:

Well, then just assume that every time you don't know what's going on, there's probably an answer out there on that mysterious technology. To answer your original question, there was some stuff out there on Twitter that the Celts are listening to offers on Jaylen Brown. Tony Jones playfully...

That's one question, of course. If he turns into a solid starter and Collier turns into a good backup, is that enough to justify the pick? Maybe. ... Probably. I assume that if the Jazz pick him, they're satisfied with the idea that he's likely to be a good deal better than Collier. But the...
