Post your 2013 Remockdraft

I love gobert. But he just last night got his first double double of his career.

It's also just the 3rd time he's gotten =/> 30 mins. He's also never attempted more than 8 FG's in a game. If a "double-double" is your standard evaluation of a player's worth, then I think you are missing a few things. Rudy is averaging 6/6/2 in just 18 mins/per. Bump that up to 30 mins and it would be 10/10/3.5

To give you some perspective, that would LEAD the league in blocks and rank Rudy 13th in rebounds. And his impact goes way beyond just blocks and rebounds. How many times do you see players altering shots or just pulling the ball back down and passing back outside because Gobert is looming over them?
 
Let me know when it's safe to come out.

Don't get me wrong, I love both of those players. I think they are an awesome combination of athleticism and potential. But people talk about Giannis becoming the next Durant. If that's the case, then the 2013 draft looks a ton better than we thought. I certainly wish we would have just taken Giannis with our pick and gobert with the golden state pick instead of trading for trey.

He might not even be able to stay in the game for that long. He averages like 4.7 fouls per 36. Numbers don't just proportionally rise with minutes. He is awesome, but he is not joakim Noah or dikembe just yet.
 
This sounds about right. I am not 100% sold on either Giannis or rudy right now, but hide are clearly two of the highest potential guys in that draft.

Explained, in BOLD.
 
Hate to be that guy... but how good is this team if we'd taken Antetokounpo instead of Burke?

It would be a pretty long perimeter with exum, hayward and Giannis. We would have sucked bad still, and maybe had a chance to draft an awesome center like towns or okafor.
