Following Potential 2018 Draftees

[Handlogten's Heros]

What is the opposition to Brunson? I get not being excited, but I'm not seeing a lot there to dislike.

Same issue with Bradley last year... just see it as low upside and can get a backup pg on the market fairly cheap. He’s too small to be a starter imo. In the 30s or 40s I’m totally cool with that pick doe.

Yeah, there's no way I'd spend #21 on him.

Tony Bradley will make all our dreams come true. We knew he'd be a project - he's still only 20. Jazz got a bargain because he's a young center and won't be in his prime for another few years. I am still a Bradley homer - he has a lot of room to improve physically. I think he'll be a good scoring/rebounding big - a suitable defender as well but by no means a big impact player on defense.

I agree about Brunson - his game I dislike most because he's going to have trouble guarding most NBA PGs. But whomever DL drafts I will support as DL is one of the best GMs around.

Spellman FTW. Threes, rebounding, and defense. Very short list of guys who can do all three at the 4:

1. AD.
2. Aminu (a little light on the rebounding).
3. Drawing a blank on another one.

Ibaka
Draymond
Aminu
Markieff

Ibaka

Good catch. Rebouding is only average, however.

Draymond

A good candidate for it. Stretches the floor and gets up a good number of attempts from deep, but not a great shooter. Was 30% this year.

Aminu

See #2 on my list.

Markieff

Not a good rebounder.

That because people are seeing he's got an NBA game up close. Kid has an it factor, a little swagger, and is a smart player.

And better at things like defense and passing than his folks thought.

You're wasting your time with Bradley. He sucks. Other teams know he sucks too. He has 0 trade value too. You'd almost have to compensate a team for taking him and his contract.

Agree. Think he only has room for marginal improvement and limited athletically he’s overall limited in his skill set, here’s hoping he develops a three point shot.

I admittedly didn't pay much attention to the Stars other than highlight clips but I think TB has slight poor-man Lamarcus Aldridge potential. I think he definitely has value.

Bradley can get double-doubles and bully small-ball centers all day. He's a good counter move to teams playing guys like PJ Tucker at the 5.

Spellman actually intrigues me for the reasons his homers state.

But, obviously not in the first round.

Or we could create some propaganda videos, send them to teams with second round picks, and convince them that they should take our 52 and the rights to a guy who is "NBA ready" in exchange for their second rounder.



We could even advertise him as the poor man's Porzingis. Poorzingis!
