2024 Mock Draft #2

[Handlogten's Heros]

Oh I meant the Josh Jackson/Ron Holland comp lol

Oh that one is solid. Physically, shooting issue, high activity guys, both guys had some dawg in them. Josh was bonkers though.

I'm surprised the Demar Derozan comp isn't used more for Holland. Very similar size, athleticism and overall game profile at the same age.

my thought was Walter was BPA and best fit but Collier is good

Walter would have been good too, and yes, a good fit.

DeMar is the mid-range god and Holland can’t create off the dribble to save his life.

Shooting issue? Jackson shot 38% from 3 and was a dawg on offense. I don’t see the similarity really at all besides size.

You are talking about current Demar. He refined that skill over the years. Also Holland has shown plenty of potential to create off the dribble. Definitely not a weakness for him.

I mean I’m not sure how you figure that. He definitely doesn’t do it from three. Out of 107 attempts he shot 7 off the dribble and made 1 of them.

I am torn on 2 players for Toronto.

Filipowski - Is very similar to Olynyk. They have his mentor on the team. He can play some minutes at the 5 also. He is an OK shooter but could get better.
Tyler Smith - Offers probably more upside and is said to be a hard worker. He is already a good 3-point shooter and is supposedly a decent defender. I like both players

Tyler Smith is supposedly a horrendous defender from what I've read.

Yes shooting issue. Dude shot 90 college threes and made 38%... he shot 173 FTs and was 57% lol. Career 29% from 3 in the NBA and 68% from the line. As a rookie at the three point line he shot 26% from 3... so yeah there was a shooting issue.

Yeah creating 3's off the dribble isn't his game. Right now his game is more attack off the dribble similar to Derozan's game when he was younger.

 

[Thee Jazz Fan]

This is the position the Jazz need to be in next year. Get a killer guard and a killer wing.

Why shouldn’t we get that this year?
