@Flight23 how u like Malik monk?

Low key I'm already posting some of the picks on the first page. Barring trade I don't plan on changing them.


I'm torn on the Knicks. Monk dropping hints that NY might take him. You got Smith confident as hell in the Knicks and then you got Ntilikina in NY right now. I think he'd only do this for the Knicks. I don't think he'd fly out and leave his French squad just to languish in the Green Room.

I got more in store, but y'all can rip or ask why I picked what I picked.

The Knicks' confidence in Monk developing his PG skills has to be a lot higher than any other team if they take him.

I really want to see Ntilikina play for Carlisle. New York is still a good spot for him to land though.

Monk just doesn't profile as a Phil PG, but if they wanna move Lee, Monk fits in as a 2.

Think he's being a bit undersold. He's just a shot maker man. I think there is a bit of potential being hidden as a secondary handler.

 

[Freddie.Cane]

Frank ntilkina what's thecoli comparison for him?

 

[tremonthustler1]

Kings at 10 is gonna do some shyt that throws everyone off.

I think they're either taking Jackson or as I alluded to earlier, go for it and draft Giles

 

[tremonthustler1]

stay posted on the first page. That's where I'm posting my final mock. I'm 22 picks in.


@str8up, when you post your mock, let me know if you want it posted on the first page

Isaac in Orlando makes too much sense to actually happen

They know deep down they wanna take Fox

 

[RedEye Jedi]

Jackson has a higher ceiling but Tatum may be more of a safe bet

Per @Malta, he did ask about the players I really like late in the draft


I am very much on the Caleb Swanigan bandwagon. I feel he should be a lotto pick, but a smart team will snatch him.


Ike Anigbogu is a massive project but one worth taking on. He'll need G-League time though.

I think whoever gets Jarrett Allen might have themselves a first teamer if they use him right. Motor + springs = success

I still believe Ivan Rabb can be Bosh-lite.

Biggest sleeper and tops my "he can't fail" list, Cam Oliver. He's a lotto pick if he went to a higher profile school. Definitely better than a lot of guys taken after 20 last year

 

[tremonthustler1]

on the flip side, I see nothing about DJ Wilson that leads me to think he'll be anything other than the guy who always wears the warm up gear but never plays

If not for Utah being interested, I wouldn't mock him in my top 45.

I like Swanigan, if he can lose just a little more weight he could be that weird tweener forward that is tough to deal with.
