Following Potential Draftees - 2019 (not kidding)

Mock also means to imitate. Words have more than one meaning. When people say mock draft, it means that this is how the draft should go, taking into consideration everything, including Lavar Ball. Yours is a big board because, it's based on the talent and potential level of the players.

Hope this helps you not being so ****ing insecure next time.

This. A mock is what you think the teams will actually do. A big board is your personal opinion of each prospect. His mock was based on his personal opinions of each prospect. So it felt more like a big board to me. That's all I was saying. Idk why he got defensive.
 
Wonder how much higher Carsen Edwards would be mocked if he was 6'2" with the exact same wingspan and standing reach he has now. Wonder if people are scared off solely from his sub 6'0" height without shoes. Was in the 95th percentile in off the dribble jumpers as a soph (can't find the numbers for last year). Shooting 3s off the dribble is so valuable now.

Edwards shot 36.4% from NBA 3 on 313 attempts, and 47.4% of his 3s were assisted.
For comparison, Tyler Herro shot 31.8% on NBA 3s on 113 attempts, and 81.7% of his 3s were assisted.
Ty Jerome: 40.6% on NBA 3s on 138 attempts, and 68.4% of his 3s were assisted.
Dylan Windler: 47.8% on NBA 3s on 23 attempts, and 88% of his 3s were assisted.
Cameron Johnson: 46.3% on NBA 3s on 162 attempts and 92.7% of his 3s were assisted.

I kind of like Edwards but is he going to be significantly better than Shabazz Napier? He could be, but sometimes these guys that have such a high usage in college can't adjust in the NBA when they are a role player.

For as much as people have crapped on this draft there are a lot of guys in our range I like... I know it was more about the lotto being weak after the top 3 but you can make a good case for a lot of these dudes. I think we can find something useful.

Carsen Edwards should be the pick. 6 foot, 6'6" wingspan, solid 200 pounds.

Can create, great shooter.

I’m sorry, but I don’t see a Jazz player in Edwards. He’s a SG in a (small) PG’s body. He’s inefficient, can’t create for others and is a liability on defense. I’d rather have Ty Jerome despite his shortcomings.
Ofcourse my opinion means he’ll probably turn out the next Lou Williams...

I do put some faith in that stat. Any chance you can look up Trey Burke's percentage of assisted 3s in college?

I want to trade up to get Rui, Clarke or Doumboya but I think Carsen is going to be a quality offensive NBA player.

Ah, very similar. So outside of volume, there's not much evidence Carson will be a better shooter than Burke.

Hot take... Trey is actually a decent offensive backup pg. If he didn't have the history with our team I'd say we should try and sign him this offseason to a minimum deal. If Carson is a slightly better version of Trey without the headache I'll take it.
