resilient part 2 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 I know it's early. But this draft seems even younger and more unproven than usual. It also seems very weak at top (10) and not much depth at all. Granted I don't watch College as much anymore. Anyone agree?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone agree?? 2 This year's draft class is one of the weakest in a very long time. Mainly because the recruiting cycle last year was terrible.

Sacramento: Obi Toppin | PF | Dayton 14. Phoenix: Killian Hayes | PG | France Wow, LaMelo #1, wouldn't that be something. Quite the journey. He certainly has grown into an NBA body, and has great instincts on the floor like his brother, but I don't know if I see enough hard skills to take him #1, granted the competition isn't all too tough. Is Tres Tinkle from Oregon St an NBA prospect? He put his name in the draft last year before coming back. He's putting up some real nice numbers so far this year, although competition has been easy. Shooting just a tad below 50% from 3, over 20 points per game, averages 8 boards and 5 assists. Solid athlete for his 6'7ish build. Could probably go either way at the next level, add more bulk and play as a small ball 4 or just stay the course and try to become Gordon Hayward.

11sanchez11 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 (edited) I've come to the conclusion the top 5 isn't that good (relative to top 5 prospects) and there are a handful of players just as good as them later in the draft edwards should prob be the #1 pick, followed by wiseman and melo but like nico and haliburton are just as good as melo and okongwu and carey and maybe are pretty close to wiseman I really don't like cole or rj edwards is the only player like himself in the draft but dude is reckless lol early thoughts, conference play is more important, and tourney play is also more important Edited December 17, 2019 by 11sanchez11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who is teaching these kids to shoot? My rules concerning shooting is as follows. there are exceptions to the rule.(any rule) But the Rule is "funny looking shots will come back to haunt you." It takes an awful lot of convincing to make me want to go outside the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted December 19, 2019 Author Share Posted December 19, 2019 James Wiseman has left Memphis and signed with an agent to begin preparing for the 2020 NBA draft. With as bad as the rest of the draft class has been he has the #1 spot in the bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
