Vecenie also had Walker Kessler like 10th in a redraft so he's kind of an idiot

9th… where would you have him? It’s a few spots off of where he should probably go but not sure what that has to do with anything. He’s been at it a while and he’s fine.

I actually think by time the draft eval process is done he’s gone by 16. OKC at 12 and Toronto at 13 I think are gonna be where his range will get started.
 
I watch Leonard Miller highlights and all I see is rich-man's Jarred Vanderbilt, if he keeps developing. Maybe a little bigger, probably has a bit more upside. From the stats, likely a lot better at finishing inside. But is that outside shot ever going to look better than Vando's?

Just an observation from someone who's watched far too little ...

I think he's one of the worst in terms of rankings and his content has gotten worse.

His podcast is so ******. He's the last guy I want to hear talk NBA basketball. He should just stick to draft content and college basketball

If Vando was actually good at the things people think he’s good at he’d be super valuable. Issue was rim finishing and actually being big enough to impact defense beyond making some hustles. I don’t think it’s far off but he’s bigger and should be better at just about everything Vando does including shooting.

The two most frustrating things with Vando were when he’d drive on a close out or get the ball in a pick and roll and just have no shot at finishing. The other is when dudes would go through and about him at the rim… I don’t think those will be issues for Miller.

And I'd say Kessler should be top 5 at the least. The finals might star two dominant centers and fools like Vecenie still want to devalue quality non-skill based bigs.

That’s fine but when a draft guy relays intel it’s okay if it runs contrary to your thoughts. His draft board was fairly accurate last year so not sure how a redraft article colors any of the info I gave… but continue loving GG. I really like that for you.
 
Another thing to remember when considering the G League guys that is unique to the G League… they shoot 1 free throw for 2 points. So if you see low FT numbers or rate remember it’s basically half of what it should be… I had forgotten that.
