Someone tell me again that Melo is the best guard in this draft. Cole Anthony would roast him on offense and then take his cookies on defense. It's not even debatable who the better prospect is. 

Cole Anthony is Dame Jr. Melo Ball is MCW Jr.

I really, really hope Isaiah Joe doesn't play his way into the lottery, assuming we don't trade the Pacers' pick and they make the playoffs. He's the ideal fit at the 2 guard in this system. Think he'd quickly become our 2nd best player due to his ability to knock down the 3 ball on high volume. There is no doubt in my mind that he's going to become an elite shooter. That shot is so pure and he can hit it at any range.

Looks weak as last year except no Zion.  Glad we’re done tanking.

Yeah, this class is pretty cheeks. I like Wiseman, Edwards, Stewart, Anthony, and Avdija a lot though at the top of the draft. Think guys like Josh Green and Cassius Stanley can be big risers this season if they shoot the ball well. Jordan Nwora and Isaiah Joe will be good additions to playoff teams.

Cassius Stanley is an ELITE athlete man. Will be interesting to see how he can shoot as the year goes on but he definitely has lottery pick potential. He looks like a smaller, less good version of Zion out there this year. 

Matthew Hurt's defense has also been much better than I expected it would be. He's definitely working himself into the 15-25 range if he can keep it up.

I think Wiseman has already got #1 on lockdown. His power and force reminds me of Oden.

It just depends on who secures the #1 pick. I think teams like New York or New Orleans would lean toward taking Cole Anthony. Memphis would probably lean toward taking Anthony Edwards. Those 3 are all in the first tier for prospects this year although I think Wiseman is the best prospect. 

Through 3 games Cassius Stanley is averaging 15 points, 4 rebounds, and 2 steals on 82% FG.
