Garland was clearly the highest upside player remaining at his spot. I don't fault them for either pick really. If we get a wing this draft we're fine. I wanted Nassir Little for his defensive prowess. I was pretty annoyed we didn’t move something to get him when he started to slide. This year, I want to move whatever it takes to get Isaac Okoro. He is literally a perfect fit for our team. That being said, I suck at basketball scouting almost as bad as our GM so what do I know? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’s a 15 / 5 / 5 SF with elite defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonanza23 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 (edited) It’s been really fun watching Sexton grow this year 😎 He just happens to be really young and can grow much more Nance too.

candyman93 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 Sexton can play basketball. Too bad nobody else on this **** team can, except KPJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s an amazing concept that young people can actually grow and improve with work and effort. Heck even with time and maturity. Boggles my mind a lot of people can’t grasp that. Anyways, fun game to watch. My next worry is Bickerstaff is going to run these guys into the ground trying to prove himself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdrawkcab321 Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 There’s a lot of kyrie to his game. If we can draft a stud forward in this draft we might have something. As long as garland stays on the bench and Sexton/KPJ are the 1 and 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedTheClock Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 You can have Sexton on the team, but you had better pair him with a stud defensive G/F. We can only really afford to have 1 defensive liability. Especially when they're as bad as Sexton. He's clearly a stud on offense, but his defense is terrible and even with improved effort, his frame doesn't support him ever becoming an elite defensive talent.

buno67 Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 I won’t even call him a stud yet until he can start actually drawing fouls, creating contact, and getting to the line. Right now he is a volume scorer. Studs are the guys who are efficient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is about the same size as Irving. He just has no game when it comes to generating contract or scoring off of contact, so he just avoids it. Which leads to bad shots and a lack of free throws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Johnson Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 (edited) Sexton has the highest floor of any of our young guys, he's already a solid player. The way he works I don't think he's done improving (especially defensively). It's just that he's never going to be a primary option on a playoff team and it's really about what the best fit for him going forward is. Everybody would be a lot more excited for him if landing a transcendent point forward or putting him on the bench was within reach. Since he's doing great things in a role he probably wouldn't be playing on a good team I think he gets a lot of unnecessary hate. It would have been amazing if him and LeBron overlapped a couple seasons. Edited March 7, 2020 by Rod Johnson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
