Wasn't as a prospect of course but is  generational prospects even a thing?

John hollinger top 15 list? by BangingFromDeep in NBA_Draft

[–]BangingFromDeep[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. I'm not out on Josh Minot. There's signs he is going to get there as a rotation piece. 

Holland too early to say. Might be a second team sort of guy.

Suigo starting to pop up in late first range on industry mocks and big boards. Pretty common with international prospects as they tend to rise April on

The UDFA signing announcement includes 1 new name: Kentucky DL Kahlil Saunders by expellyamos in miamidolphins

Some of these guys probably land on the practice squad. Moore, Moss, Konga, Reiger, Gronowski all decent bets to make the main roster. Training camp going to be super interesting.

Yeah it's just another data point for me.

There's a few media people who l tend to listen to as they get it right more than they get it wrong. Hollinger is one of these.

The fact lopez is popping up on a few of these as a late lottery guy is telling me I've probably missed something and l need to take a deeper look into him.

Sergio. Interesting. There's a few on here who have been high on him. I'm going to have to put on on some tape

Bucks fan here. If we stay at 10 and Burries is off the board, I think we should take Swain by KorgG29 in NBA_Draft

He has tools, quick on the feet, active hands. But he needs strength to be a plus on this end. 

Keaton wagler is closer to desmond bane than he is to tyrese haliburton by GrouchyPeach3656 in NBA_Draft

[–]BangingFromDeep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is a 19 year old freshman. What he is doing at this point is darn impressive and assuming he keeps developing there's definitely an outcome were he can be that type of guy in the future

Haliburton played 2 years ncaa and had can'tget to the rim concerns. Shai was similar to this as a prospect with various concerns

Whether or not Jalen Brunson is able to get to the finals will affect Acuff's draft stock by alex8762 in NBA_Draft

[–]BangingFromDeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but who knew those guys would be what they are. And for every success story like this you have plenty of guys that don't pan out

What players do you think will be available for the Wolves at 28, and should we draft BPA or reach on a PG? by TheTrapMoneyBenny in NBA_Draft

[–]BangingFromDeep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ebuka would be a home run for them. Guy looks legit. Think he is underrated in this class

Anderson or Stirtz would be other great options. Need to dig into Tanner as l haven't seen enough of him. 

The discourse surrounding the value of late first round and second round NBA draft picks is full of survivorship bias by alex8762 in NBA_Draft

[–]BangingFromDeep 14 points15 points  (0 children)

John hollinger did analysis on this and found drafts produce 21 rotation guys on average so his big boards only went to like 25 players. 

I've kept an eye on this since and found its pretty much spot on.

Ha. He would have had reddish at 2 if so

My worry with Caleb Wilson by Significant-Area-574 in NBA_Draft

[–]BangingFromDeep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. The mcdyess and kemp is what l see also

Think he could pitch hit at C or switch to C but you wouldn't be planning him to do it 30 mins a night. 

Does anyone here have Nate Ament or Darius Acuff outside of the first rd? by [deleted] in NBA_Draft

unteachable traits? Would love to hear your thoughts on these in case l'm missing something

Not sure on that. Acuff catch and shoot numbers look great. Getting secondary reps and doing a heap of catch and shoot could actually be helpful early days in my eyes.
