Could u elaborate why u think Josh Jackson is the best guy? In my eyes he looks like he's the one most likely to bust out of the top10, because he's got a questionable jump shot, average length and build and on top of that if he can't dominate the ball/run the offense he has the potential to wreck a team's spacing. If he runs the offense and the screener can't pop there are issues as well IMO.
He said a chance.
He plays harder than anyone else in the draft and is the best defender. I would say he is one of the guys with the least bust potential. Probably the most well rounded player in the draft. He has leadership/alpha qualities, very vocal on court. He isnt a terrible shooter and he can create off the dribble for himself and others.
Losing this years pick, they would lose 2019 first round pick too. And next year they already gave it to someone else i think.
Lakers future would be sucked up. NBA saved them. It is their dearest franchise.
While we have Favors and Lyles, it doesnt make sense to pick a PF in the draft. We should either look for a steal or go for a SG-SF. Kennard would be ideal and he would immediately help, but i dont think he drops that much. Diallo is most intriguing guy here. Thinking he might be a top 3 pick next year, i say, why not steal him this year?
I dont think Josh Jackson gonna be the best guy out of this draft. Fultz, Lonzo, Tatum, Monk has more upside. But Jackson is a better all around player. He can pass, defend he is athletic. If he improves his shooting he will be a really good player. But no way as good as Tatum offensively. I also think Isaac and Zach Collins are good. Dont sleep on them.
To be fair he said "the best chance", which means he's the best prospect in his opinion.
Some reasoning like what you offered is all I asked for. I can understand where you're coming from regardless whether I disagree or agree.
In general, this is something that's lacking a lot these days. If you post your opinions, try to elaborate more often to create a cleaner discussion. It's roughly a month until the draft and I find myself browsing through threadpages like thirsty boys swipe their tinder apps. A bit more of "I like x, BECAUSE ..." and less "X is good" - "No he's not" - "You're stupid" - "No, you're stupid"
Yeah I read that wrong.
Also wtf are you talking about?

Well browse through a couple pages in this thread and you may notice the lack of explanation that I see.
The explanations are what make opinions intriguing from my point of view and in the past I've liked reading full posts and it took time to catch up on 5 new pages when I didn't have time to visit the forum for a couple days. Right now I'm just browsing pages glancing over posts like "Jayson Tatum is a stud" and I see no reason to brake my mousewheel for posts like this.
Regarding Josh Jackson, he's an excellent 2-way player, prototypical athlete for a wing, and his shooting will continue to improve. He can do just about everything end to end and potentially take over games. I don't see how he busts. Even if he shoots poorly, he's like Iguodala in every other aspect of the game.
