Who was closer to playing in college between Kuminga/Green? CBB missed out... At the combine LaVine measured in at 6'6" 181 with a 6'8.5" wingspan. Green's measurements at the last big camp were 6'6" 175 with a 6'7.5" wingspan. And I don't think Green ever planned on playing college basketball, he had a weird HS career and IIRC there were concerns if he'd even be eligible. Kuminga looked like a guy that was going to play college ball but then the covid stuff hit and he reclassified to play in the G-League. Both guys definitely made the right decision though, make $500K in a season to play in a bunch of glorified G-League exhibitions rather than play for free in a weird college basketball season that will likely be over soon.

beekay414 Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Is Scotty Pippen a legit NBA prospect? Saw he was doing 22 and 5 on 45.0/39.5/83.7 but I've honestly never really watched him and he's undersized at 6'1". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a good scorer off the bench early on, but if his efficiency keeps climbing and he gets stronger he could be a Fred VanVleet type of player with a better offensive repertoire. He's a smart defender and plays the pass really well and has active hands when opponents are driving. Definitely a interesting prospect, but he needs to get stronger and clean up the turnovers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness though if the Knicks land in the top 3-4 you guys should be in a good position to land Jalen Suggs or Jalen Green. If you end up later in the lottery I could see you grabbing someone like David Duke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11sanchez11 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 I hope Benny Mathurin stays for another year (cause AZ will be good). Shooting 50% from 3, long, really athletic. If he gets a pullup he will be really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texansfan713 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) Interested to see what picks the Rockets end up with. They will end up with the Blazers pick if they make the playoffs. Rockets wont get the Pistons 1st. If the Rockets pick not top 4 they will most likely end up with the Heat 1st round. I'm hoping for a top 4 pick. Needs SG- Oladipo probably wont resign. Gordon is not the future answer at SG going forward. PF- Tucker is older and wont be in the long term plans SF- Gordon is not a SF and he is starting there by default.
