Following Potential 2025 Draftees

Because he was 19 years old.

Look, I'm just looking for context. Stats are hugely contextual and I'm admittedly ignorant of the CBA. I think there is good chance that there is some team Dynamic in play as well. 16/10 on 33mpg might be impressive as a 19 year old 7 footer in the CBA. It doesn't feel like it's that special though, but I could be wrong. I do think that 2.7 blocks and 2.8 assists as a 19 year old seven footer playing in the CBA is more likely to be impressive.

I'm very far away from a Yang Hater.

Two other players on his team averaged 10 rebounds per game and he was 5th in shot attempts per game.

Current Mellochill Prediction Market for who the Jazz will draft at #5:
Tre Johnson (40%)
Kon Knuppel (20%)
Jeremiah Fears (20%)
Ace Bailey (15%)
VJ Edgecombe (5%)

Ace’s probability drops in half. Kon becomes a strong candidate. VJ even less likely to get to #5 due to Acegate.

The way Andy approached this draft cycle is commendable. The ability to self reflect and learn from past mistakes should be encouraged. I can't speak to how good his model is without the details, but the fact that he used an LLM shouldn't be seen as a bad thing as long as he knows what he's doing. My main coding language is now plain english, and I've become much more productive at work since then. This is just what the industry is. If you're not using an LLM, you're behind.

Leif OTOH is actually terrible. Negative logic.

My final board will be wild. I don't know if I will be ready to share...

Leif is a younger clone of Locke I feel...

Leif is better at judging talent than Locke is.

Leif OTOH is actually terrible. Negative logic.

Andy basically dumped on a lot of the nonsense Leif has been selling regarding trades and the draft. Leif is a tough listen. He's been so hyperfocused on Tre and making the most ridiculous stretches to fit the love that for his sake I hope he doesn't suck.
