Here is my attempt at a big board entering the conference play. Didnt spend a ton of time on it, and probably already disagree with stuff on it, but I think it represents what I believe loosely.

I’d use a 2nd round pick as a draft and stash on him. Hope he gets out of his funk and back to what made. People excited about him in the first place. Huge mistake for him to pull out of the draft last year.
Huge mistake? He wasnt getting drafted in the first round last year.

I was noticing that Miles Bridges is dropping a little, at least trending downward, a couple questions...
Would you want him on the Jazz?
What do you think his best position is?

I wish we knew more about Jarrod Vanderbilt. When I read his profile write ups he seems like a talent that could be a steal. What is worrisome is that he can't shoot but his shot doesn't look broken. If Ben Simmons can be successful at the 4 why couldn't Vanderbilt?

I like it. Trae Young at 2 is bold. One of those things I'd think about doing but don't have enough balls. Donnie Tillman at 28. That's pretty cool, is he having a good season? I remember reading Coach K was super excited about getting him. Seemed more important than Akot who was an all american.

Wow if anyone had any questions before on your bball iq, which I didn't, this would pretty much show them the lack of. Comparing JV to Ben Simmons is ludicrous. Yes I know your not comparing their games directly but they literally have nada in common when it comes to bball. I must say I love bball needs like you though because you keep things funny with the comedy statements. Statements like this shows how a woman can know more about the game of bball then a dude does. I'm just assuming your a guy since 97 percent of posters on athletic team boards are.

Nick King, Redshirt Senior at Middle Tennessee will have taken a rather unusual path to the NBA, but he's gonna make it in some form, which is very cool.
He's a former 5-star relic from the HS class of 2013.. (Jabari/Wiggins).. who assuredly many wrote off long ago.. I lost track of him..
Started at Memphis his first two years averaged 4 and 7 points, sat out a year to xfer to Alabama last year scored 3.3ppg, this year at Middle Tennessee he's averaging 23.3 points on fantastic shooting %'s. He's a sniper. 6'7" long arms..
He's about Exum's age too, could definitely be a year older given his path.
The kid I always hyped at Ohio State, who came in with D'Angelo Russell, Keita Bates-Diop, is pretty much exactly what I was hyping him to be for all these years. He is actually playing so well he could workhimself into the end of the 1st rd. He's really a legit player to keep an eye on moving forward, prototype NBA SF build and he can really shoot it and defend, he's smart.
2 of the best seniors in the nation, and y'all know I'm biased against old players..
Neither are going to be drafted. Diop Is a gleague player who is going to have to prove he can shoot it. He Has under achieved big time in college.
