2022 Draft: Who you like?

Interesting stuff there. I like it when someone’s player assessments differ from mine … makes me think again and check I’m not missing something. Main takeaway is how high he has Tyty.

What happened to that poll idea that some guy had?

That would be the funnest thing on this board since I got here. A poll for our preferred picks for 13 15 and our second round pick. My thought is that you would have to list the top 50 guys and folks can rank 1, 2 or 3 for each corresponding pick.

Don’t sleep on that 2nd round pick for the poll because we just might select the next Jokić in two weeks!

The podcast said we then take Jalen Williams at 2o

Jalen Williams has my eye pretty big time. He might make a jump above that range.

Agree some mocks i have seen have him at 15th

Anyone know any of these guys?

Oh yeah, Garrison Brooks, 4 year Carolina player then transferred to play with his dad for his graduate year. Solid college PF, but don’t really see him making it in the NBA. Maybe these guys are just to see who’s competent and competitive enough to fill out the summer league roster.

I love Molinar

Work the Atkinson hire, I’m far less convinced we’re not keeping both picks. A coach that plays star players 30mpg might heavily play draft picks even if for only 10mpg.

I think the best use of the picks would be to trade both to move up in the draft. I would love to draft the raw talent of Jalen Duren, given that Atkinson is good at player development. Of course, it would be dreamy to get one of the top three prospects of Smith, Banchero, or Holmgren.

This seems like a deep draft. Maybe not in pure star power, but a ton of players that can be really good.

Maybe its where we’re drafting, but guys in the 8-20 range all seem like they could be good for us, and there’s no way to tell who’s gonna be available.

I’ve seen Duren down at our 2nd pick, Dyson Daniels, Mark Williams, Sohan, and Sharpe all across the lottery. Who knows, maybe something weird like Mathurin or Griffin falls to 13. They would fit in perfectly next to Melo and Miles.

Are there any tier lists out there for prospects? There’s the top 3, then the next 3 I think are pretty certain around there, then it feels like the talent from there out is pretty even, depending on team needs. Normally you would see more separation at this point, but this year feels different.

That’s crazy, how did I forget who brooks was? That seems like a distant memory wowzers.

We will be drafting Duren

We will trade up to get him

What would be the framework?

Our two firsts and 3 lbs of marijuana

Haha

Another player (Hopefully not Thor) but could be one of our projects

So something like #13 + bouk, martin, etc for the better pick and something else in return

I think the price may be a little steeper than just 1 pick and a project

To move up like 2 slots?
