That's a strange comparison for a guy that has shown a pretty complete offensive game compared to a guy with no offensive game.

His offensive game isn't complete at all. I think he's a great prospect with his athleticism and D, but I don't see clear game changer.

I think he is gonna be a whole lot better than that lol... but its not just Cooper... there are like 7-8 super intriguing guys... assume a couple disappoint and maybe another guy or 2 emerge. Might be similar to 2017 or 2018 drafts.
 
FWIW, I finished the McDonalds All American game and Flagg was pretty unremarkable on both offense and defense. He wasn't strong enough on defense and not very involved on offense. I watched some of the practice highlights and he was dripping in sweat, so I think they were working them pretty hard. I'm not too concerned. He looked a lot better in some of the practice highlights that came out.

The MVPs of the gamer were Dylan Harper and Derik Queen. Harper reminded me of Deron Williams. Queen was just stronger than everyone else on the court.

I really think Bailey could be really good. Once he fills out I can see a lot of two way potential. Right now I would probably put Bailey over Flagg.
 
From what I'm seeing there should be a really good 5-10 players in the 2025 draft, but there isn't a can't miss prospect like Wemby or Lebron.

Right. Those guys only come around every 20 years or so... which is why you take the 10-14% chance at getting em. I think 2025 might be like a 5-6 AS type draft unless lots of guys disappoint.

Yeah, and again, I'm not HS draft person at all. Just don't think his profile is generational prospect.

I agree. I'm pretty sure I can see what people are talking about though. He's got size, athleticism, and feel for the game. He still has to put it all together, but he MIGHT be one of the next great NBA player, it's just way less certain than other highly anticipated prospects.
