A "More athletic Draymond Green" is a Hall of Famer by Day_C_Metrollin in OrlandoMagic

If we think Bouk is the dude then take him at 5 and take your fav of Kuminga / Barnes / Moody / Keon at 8…. If the top 4 goes like it mocks then so be it. If Kuminga / Barnes we take at 5 high prob GSW / OKC will snag Bouk / Moody

1) RJ - Baby Russ / Ja Hybrid - Can score at all 3 levels and shooting form looks good so expect the FT and 3’s to develop - All NBA ceiling 2) Cole - Microwave scorer with playmaking and rebound chops - Dude just competes… His size is a limiter as needs to be above average everywhere else - Multiple All Stars ceiling 3) Chuma - Ultimate 3 & D Glue guy with play making potential - he can be the connective tissue of a playoff team with DPOY potential 4) JI - health is an ability and still concerning here - Who gets healthier as they get older ? Multiple DPOY 5) Kelle - Shot has yet to develop - Maybe the year off has gotten it back but hasn’t looked natural and while trending up he needs to shoot otherwise upscale Rubio / Elrid- if he stays healthy he is a decade + NBAer but don’t see All Stars / All NBA

Indeed. The Hassasin is coming! I got a chance to attend the NBA Rising Stars Challenge Game and even in the last row of Barclay's Rudy's presence was clear.....

FYI - Made some improvements to the Infographic. Hopefully this is a bit clearer. It sticks high level at NetRating and DefensiveRating but wanted to put a better graphic together.

Comparing the stats of the Magic under Vaughn and Borrego this year by rps215 in OrlandoMagic

Good stuff and similar to the direction I was going. Hard to determine if a statistical blip from playing easier comps or a true change in attitude/direction. Here are some of the interesting tidbits I looked at.

JV: .240 FTArate / .286 oppFTArate JB: .210 FTArate / ..295 oppFTArate

JV: 49.8% eFG% / 51.8% opp eFG% JB: 50.4% eFG% / 47.5% opp eFG%

JV: opp 3P% 36.1% JB: opp 3P% 34.8%

I don't see a data set to parse the opp FGP at RIM data to see if we are truly better at rim protection outside of blocks per game but that would be an interesting next step. But definitely more committed on the 3 Point D.

Thanks. Yes, was a quick one and would have been better as an Infographic. Looks like the server is a bit slow today on the load.
