Random NBA Observations 2016 - 2017

I'm not up on the draft but I heard this will be quite insane when it comes to guards

Fultz, Ball, Monk, Smith, Fox, the french guy..etc

It's loaded with PGs, all those dudes are putting up numbers too.


The Sixers are going to get a PG that fits their team - Smith, Ntilikina, Monk or Fultz all can hit the three.

so you want to bring Okafor who imo is below avg on the boards. Also you can't possibly think he fits in on offense

Noel makes much more sense. Jah is the new Big Al...he bench bound unless he improves his game/passing

The overreaction is amazing with this team. A healthy Aminu changes alot

I think he gives them an outlet on offense that they don't currently have, he can improve on pretty much everything you're saying, he simply doesn't fit playing for the Sixers.


The Blazers are 6-9 in games Aminu plays, they have some serious problems and teams are going at their backcourt

Lonzo can also hit the 3 and is probably the most all around of the group alongside Fultz (who I think is the best of them all). Ntilikina has insane length for someone his size I think too

I'm pretty high on Murray and think he'll eventually be a PG, so getting him would be the big thing, and getting a first as well would help them land a SF. I think Murray has a really high ceiling.

I'm high on him ad well, especially how well he's played after his catastrophic start of the season. He's very up and down but he's also 19.

And I think Jimmy's at his peak right now, his biggest weakness is a consistent shot and I don't think he'd get one (even if he's been steadily improving on other areas). Still, a potential 23/7/5 with elite perimeter defense with a bargain of a contract is nothing to scoff at

Ntilikina

I'm hearing this name on the 76er boards. Is he really that good? Folks talk about his jumper being deadly but is he really top 5 pick worthy?

CJ / Lillard is the worst defensive backcourt in the league, they are a large reason why the Blazers defense is so bad. Portland is actually slightly above average as far as guarding the rim goes, it's their lack of rebounding that hurts them and the fact their guards are absolutely terrible defending. They envision Klay and Curry, but Klay is a + defender while CJ isn't.

They have way too much money invested on mediocre/average dudes like Crabbe, Leonard and Turner. Vonleh is a total bust and Ezeli has yet to play a minute, that hurts their defense a lot.

Ntilikina probably has the best all around game of them and I bet he shoots up the board once they get into workouts, also he might be the best fit for the Sixers right now if they can't get Fultz, in that he's playing off the ball for his team and learning to function as an SG. For a team that has Ben Simmons you take Ntilikina over Lonzo Ball to be honest, you can tell Lonzo is going to be ball dominant.

I'm high on him ad well, especially how well he's played after his catastrophic start of the season. He's very up and down but he's also 19.

And I think Jimmy's at his peak right now, his biggest weakness is a consistent shot and I don't think he'd get one (even if he's been steadily improving on other areas). Still, a potential 23/7/5 with elite perimeter defense with a bargain of a contract is nothing to scoff at

I wouldn't trade Jimmy, but he's going to be too good to get the Bulls a high lottery pick but not good enough to get them deep in the playoffs so I can see why they'd entertain moving him for young players.

In terms of talent, he's right there with Fultz, I think when the workouts happen people are going to be blown away by him. He's extremely athletic, can shoot, can finish at the rim and it looks like he's got one of those 6'10+ wingspans.




He's also learning to play off the ball a lot more than these other PGs, which is why you probably hear his name a lot now. If Ben Simmons is your primary ball handler, it's between this kid and Monk as far as who to draft, and I'd take him over Monk.

Murray has been horrible in December
