GG needed to do well in workouts and especially in interviews. Are you sure he's the one who is screwing the pooch like this? This is starting to sound like a Hassan Whiteside situation.

I'm pretty sure its him. His draft stock has been tanking for weeks now.

He's now at 31 on Bleacher (the lowest I've seen).

EDIT: he's also 31 on SI too. He's falling fast

Defensive versatility
Toughness and physicality
Legit three-level scoring
Point-forward potential
He should be able to handle and bully his way into the lane, and make a play with a pass or his bankable floater.

For me, KO has been a complete revelation as far as what is possible with elite level passing from the front court. We see it again in Denver. My idea of what I want to see on offense is to have 3 playmakers on the floor and not give ANYTHING away defensively. Having two of the three bigs with legit three point ability is icing on the cake. I just want to have a team that can laugh at teams that want to go small ball.

We would still have to do something about the guard line, but I feel like those guys are more obtainable than someone like Walker, maybe even with our second pick. Those guys pop up in free agency and trades more often too, simply because the physical profile is more common. It might even be that we have one of those guys on the roster already.

Also, if we get Walker, I'm having him live with KO at his hippie commune to learn every dirty trick KO knows.

Yeah, I'm sure. He's a second contract guy right now.

He’s quite literally been that this whole time… I tried to tell y’all. Immature 18 yo with bad decision making do not get more mature with money and attention. Dude needs to feel his bad decisions fully… then we can see how he reacts.
 
The GG ride was wild lol. For a bit it seemed like his measurements and early workouts meant he wouldn’t fall to 16. Now it’s looking likely that he falls out of the first round. If he gets a green room invite he better not take it!
 
It is weird to me that this is what convinces the GG Teflon folks to jump off the bandwagon… no excuses like the workout was too hard or he ate real heavy or he tanked the workout out of loyalty or Gary Parrish just hates him cuz he doesn’t have an agent. Cmon… stick to your convictions.
