You might get to #4 with #11 and two future 1sts Oh I realize that. I wondered how much he'd add to our cost since he has a horrible contract and is a sixth man.

I agree 100%. If we jumped to #2 and don't take Ja, I riot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Detroit got #44. I hope Memphis buys 1. I also love that the Lakers still haven't gotten one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11sanchez11 Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 I still think Ja and RJ are equal prospects. I would've taken RJ #2 before the Conley trade if the plan was to be competent this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they trade up to #2 I don't see them selecting Barrett though What aspect of scoring is he elite at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not an elite athlete who plays above the rim. He's not an efficient scorer and has poor shot selection/very selfish tendencies. He's not a great shooter from midrange, the FT line or from deep. He's super one dimensional because he can't go right at all and always finishes with his left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much hate on the man but he'll thrive in the NBA. He came to Duke a year early and was surrounded by non-shooters so he was forced to take 2x as many 3's as he should have within the flow of our offense. You say Barrett is a flawed prospect but then fail to point out that Ja's a questionable shooter, extremely turnover prone, and terrible defensively. He played one of the 10 easiest schedules in college basketball and is set to become only the 2nd player in the modern draft era to average 5+ TO per game and be selected in the lottery. Will the shooting translate to the next level? Not sure. He'll have to be 10x better defensively next season to be even considered below average.

I would've taken RJ #2 before the Conley trade if the plan was to be competent this year. They are. Everyone gets hyped on Ja because of the flashy numbers and athletic highlights but what kind of numbers would Barrett have put up against powerhouses like Austin Peay, Tennessee State, and Eastern Kentucky on a nightly basis? Look at the Florida State game, one of the only times he went up against a team full of NBA caliber length and athleticism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
