One of a better episodes. I'm on the same page with Leif with his reasonings. My ranking is slightly different but i also value BPA and high upside (all star potential) over safe role player picks. I also agree with the weaknesses you pointed out regarding Topic, Williams and Buzelis. Also the comparison between Castle and Holland was spot on! Good job! Ps. There are some estimations of Dillingham going as low as 10th due to fit issues. That makes me extremely excited as a Jazz fan!!!
Rob Dillingham number one overall. I believe you are the ONLY folks to put Dillingham at the top of your draft board. He may have some similarities to Trae Young, but given the choice of the two, Young would seem to be better. Both score, but neither play defense. The different, Young is a known commodity. Dillingham has potential.
Atlanta should keep both Young and Murray, and find themselves a big to make fill the voice close to the basket. Sarr would seem to be a better choice for Atlanta than Dillingham.
Teams prefer team synergy potential with a pick over All Star potential, which has many variables both in and out of teams control.
Interesting takes on the top-10. With this draft almost nothing will surprise me as far as who goes where. I will look forward to seeing the players drafted in 2024, just to see who is able to do what with the minutes they're able to carve out. Also to see how close, or far away, some of the projections are for the players.
Sarr seems too light. Rotational player maybe
A strong suggestion for you and your listeners. Go to Sam Presti’s thoughtful and honest post-season interview. This is why OKC is so far ahead of the curve, and instead of seeking out older, overpaid stars has a plan, and patience to carry it out.
Would you take Darius Garland first? Think about what you are saying.
Darius Garland actually isn't a bad top pick for the worst draft in the last decade... Oh yeah, and I think he'll be more like Kemba Walker than Darius Garland...
I'm a Ron Holland fan, but his tunnel vision is a worry. Thus I rate Tidjane Salaun over him for my Hornets at #6.
Won't Dillingham get pants-ed on defense? Who does he guard at 168 lbs?
speed
Have been hearing some rumblings about Ware could possibly move into the top 10. What do you guys think of that? Any chance of that happening?
I think that would be a grave mistake, I think missi, holmes, clingan, and sarr are all better
Ware should be top 20ish
10 is too rich probably
He’s got all the tools in the world tho
Personally I have heard the opposite. Imo Ware should be considered in the top 10, but among scouts I hear the motor issue is real and he's not going as high as the consensus even thinks. I get it though... 2-0 against Clingan in performances against each other in their college career, shoots the ball well in game situations and has the physique of a young Myles Turner in a weaker draft class. (No I don't think he's Myles Turner, but maybe a poor man's version)
I'm kinda suprised so many big men are ranked ahead of him, he had really good measurements in the combine and just turned 20 last month as a sophomore
Would Portland be a good fit for Salaun?
Sure, the Blazers are just starting the rebuild that have time for Salaun to develop
Do you think the Wizards could draft Salaun?
I think that’s a major reach
@@jonsimilien8606agreed
Would be a wizards pick to reach so much
Hes not that guy to go 2nd
Doubt it, but it's possible in this draft.
