Do we want to do that stupid thread this year where people list their favorite player in the draft and make up a nickname?
BooooI'm not as certain we will have a pick anymore.
IMO we still buy a mid-to-late second.I'm not as certain we will have a pick anymore.
I like Mark Williams better than Duren too...Sleeping on Mark Williams… he gonna be better than Duren.
This is becoming a popular sentiment on draft boards - I had the same thought back in march and april, but now I'm starting to think duren might be underrated. keep in mind williams is a full two years older than duren. that's a big deal from a development standpoint. gun to my head, i probably still take williams, but i'm starting to think people are sleeping on duren a bit.Sleeping on Mark Williams… he gonna be better than Duren.
I'm not super duper dug in here and its more of just a fun hot take. They will get picked within like 4 picks of each other.This is becoming a popular sentiment on draft boards - I had the same thought back in march and april, but now I'm starting to think duren might be underrated. keep in mind williams is a full two years older than duren. that's a big deal from a development standpoint. gun to my head, i probably still take williams, but i'm starting to think people are sleeping on duren a bit.
He looks too much like Dennis Lindsey... I can't do it.I think everyone is sleeping on Walker Kessler. Someone in the late 1st or later is going to draft a 10+ year NBA player. He moves surprisingly well for someone of his immense size and his block numbers are INSANE.
I also think the wing heaviness of this draft from teens to later first works against him.I think everyone is sleeping on Walker Kessler.

Which is why I really like this draft. One of my favorites in a long time (and why I am really down to just get as many picks as we can).I also think the wing heaviness of this draft from teens to later first works against him.
Depends on which guys are on the board at 13... if Sochan or Daniels were there by some miracle I would probably agree and take them. If its Eason and Dieng (haven't looked much at Dieng) I'd likely go Williams. Griffin IDK... I'm not a huge fan but I get it. Davis I can't figure out.Which is why I really like this draft.

I know you’re bussin about Mark Williams and I’m inclined to follow your lead, but if I had to pick him 13 or could get Kessler at 30 I do the latter.
williams at #15 to charlotte would be perfect for them. great value and perfect fit.ESPN posted an updated Mock Draft today. I'll post some of it...

Tony Snell with muscles... I kid. I think his jumper and body are great obvi. The injury stuff is a bit concerning. Last year he may have been slowed by the injury a bit or maybe he held back a bit.I love Griffin, lol, Jimmy Butler with a jumper.
