Following Potential 2020 draftees

What? Why? Our passing is dog **** and going to get worse.
I think the idea is Mitchell is moving to PG full time after next season, so the Jazz don't want to draft one. They want a complementary wing who can play alongside him.

K, well, until Donovan learns to reliably and regularly whip cross court passes, live dribble one-handed passes, and lobs then the Jazz would do well to find a player bigger than Donovan to supplement that.

And what is the point in waiting to transition to Donovan after next year? **** is stupid and I'm sure the Knicks would take Conley. Let's stop wasting time.

Jaden McDaniels is a guy who could've started out the season with the Utah evaluators saying "We love this player but he's gonna be way out of our range".... and now their trying to luck out with him falling into their laps....

That scenario imo is very realistic...

McDaniels is like 6" taller than Royce Oneale too... A lot of the tweener forwards in this draft, such as Woodard, have kinda redundant skillsets with O'Neale... But not McDaniels, their skillsets arent even close...
 
Could McDaniels fit in for Utah the way that Darius Bazley fit for OKC last year rookie season? Cuz if the answer is yes, McDaniels has gotta be the pick...


whenever I watched OKC with Bazley on the floor I'd always be thinking "Actually, how good is this team?" Seemed tough for me to gauge their power levels like Swamp Thing..


TBH tho I do think that Bazley was better at this stage though. To me Bazley's shot selection and jumpshot were better, McDaniels probably has him beat defensively tho.
 
Not if the rumors are true and the Knicks end up trading for Westbrook
The Knicks’ plan since the night they ****ed up 2019 free agency was to try again in 2021. They could trade for Westbrook, but that is greater than one entire max cap slot they’d be committing to an increasingly past-his-prime dude with an ever-evaporating jump shot and increasing health issues.

But yeah, maybe they go for it, but they’re also saying they won’t send assets at all as a rule. We’ll see where it goes, but if I’m them, I just take the Conley rental and it wouldn’t be close.
 
To be clear, I'm not itching to cobble him as a regular 5, just situational or in a switch. I think his biggest selling point is his defensive versatility, but I think he should essentially be a 4 in the modern NBA (which is the new "swingman").
I mean, it's something you would have to teach him to do and it wouldn't really be possible in the first two years I would think.
