Wow -- really going after the tough shot makers

Did this ever get posted?

Like Cody's college 3-pt %, should we really be making bets based on that sample size?

Hey, without the break until the second round we may not have gotten all the Filipowski "why did he fall" content last year? Paid for itself in attention just in one year.

Oh no. I may have to rethink my Fears stanning. :oops:

Well, then just assume that every time you don't know what's going on, there's probably an answer out there on that mysterious technology. To answer your original question, there was some stuff out there on Twitter that the Celts are listening to offers on Jaylen Brown. Tony Jones playfully...

That's one question, of course. If he turns into a solid starter and Collier turns into a good backup, is that enough to justify the pick? Maybe. ... Probably. I assume that if the Jazz pick him, they're satisfied with the idea that he's likely to be a good deal better than Collier. But the...

Rather different player type, but some things: Much more of a true PG Taller A lot better at controlling the action, tempo Not the pure bucket getter that Sexton was/is (At least for those who like him, I presume) much easier to imagine how he eventually makes others around him better

Gotta check Twitter once in a while, man.

I'm a little miffed at this "we're talking our selves out of/into [player x]" narrative that seems to be going around. It seems to be based on the unstated (or sometimes stated) assumption that we already know who the best draft prospects are, and that it's just a matter of making sure we don't...

See also the discussion at 18:55 on who will really determine the pick: ie, JZ, DA, AA. Sounds like there's some differences within the FO (not that that shouldn't be expected).

From Tony Jones today on Fears: "There's one member of the Jazz front office that really, really, really likes him" (start at about 3:35)

Great job with this one, guys. As you were asking Tony at the end about anything you didn't cover, I had one thought come to mind: whether he thinks there's any difference in the drafting approach between Danny and Austin (esp. since there was a little discussion on how Danny has his types in...

Strongly on the side of not small (though not large either). He's fine for a PG. Certainly not as small like most of the guys he's comped with. His body will need development, but I don't see anything stopping that over the years.

Agreed. In the same ballpark as the "We didn't tank just so we could draft a role player" argument.

I don't have any proof (it might be a worthwhile debate), but it seems to make sense to me that one of the worst things you can do in drafting is draft someone expecting them to be a star/true #1 option who either cannot handle the load, doesn't turn out to be sufficiently efficient, or has...

Whatever word we use for why some players have the ability to surpass other players who were drafted higher or in the same neighborhood, I don't think we know what it fully is (or maybe it's not just one thing). If we use "feel," it could be argued that Cody was expected to have (and maybe does...

Maybe you've seen this?

Kyle actually measured a quarter inch taller than Wolf, though his length measurements are somewhat worse.

Hit a triple with Knueppel.
