I would really like to do a Big 3 draft sometime (wherein you can only have three multi-time all-stars and the rest are one all-star or none [since there are a lot of flukes that should still be eligible for drafting]). I think it would be fun and interesting to have teams that might resemble...

The timing of getting the trade exception is quite interesting as the Jazz could use the trade exception through the first week of next years free agency. In other words, they might actually pick up a player once they’ve decided they’ve had enough of being bad on purpose.

I challenged it but not very hard because I wasn’t confident enough in the face of overwhelming consensus. More troubling than the weak perimeter shooting is his weirdly-low assist numbers (I know the raw numbers don’t tell the whole story, but at certain point in extremity, it frames the...

I probably would’ve had WCJ a few slots above Procter on my big board had I made one.

Probably is. 2011 (Kawhi, Kyrie, Klay, Butler) and 2009 (Steph, Harden, Blake, Jrue, DeRozan) were supposed to be terrible drafts and they ended up being better than average.

I have faith that Ace will prove to be the better all-around player than Tre but it's a little hard right now.

Pretty much. He doesn’t have to be perfect; if he was we wouldn’t be having this discussion.

It’s important to note that Clayton is two years older than Collier. If Collier’s shot is indeed just broken than it’s probably WCJ by default since that’s basically a requirement for the position. So, if Collier can learn to shoot it at >/=35% from 3 on respectable volume and 80% from the...

I think Tre is definitely a better shooter and possibly a better scorer overall, but the difference between their defense from baseline to best-case scenario is tilted WAY in favor of Ace which is why I still ultimately kept him 3 on my board.

This thread works great. Not sure that the particular Summer League is more important than that it’s a bunch of young players and other NBA hopefuls playing bad basketball.

You can also get a Collin Sexton for matching salary and receive a 2nd.

Uh huh. Why NOW?

I don’t think great games in Summer League mean much, but I think REALLY BAD gameS probably do. Kas might be cooked. I’m saying this as a pretty loud member of the Kas Klub and will take my lumps if that’s where this is headed.

I’m not seeing the reason for this boundless optimism based on summer league play. Not saying he’s cooked or anything, this just seems like a weird time to have these sentiments.

These teams are too close. I would suggest grabbing four teams and having a tournament from there.
