I mean there’s an apparent gap in perception after you get past Barnes and Kuminga (which would make it a top 6 and not 4), but I think it’s definitely disingenuous to say those two are closer to Jalen Johnson or Moses Moody than Jalen Green and especially Jalen Suggs

I don’t think it is at all

They aren’t thought of anywhere near the tier of the top 4

Gonna be a lot of teams in the lottery looking to trade back in the draft.

draft falls of a cliff after the top 4.

They’res not a big difference between the 5th best prospect and the 15th
I would say teams are treating 8-20 has a certain parity but 1-4 and 5-7 seem to be on a different tier

Thunder/TSC
I expect the Thunder will try to put 16/18 & 34/36 together & move up.

They could probably get into the back end of the first again with 34/36 from a team like Utah who is about to pay Conley & probably want any kind of relief they can get money wise. Then sell that pick at the end of the second. No chance in hell they making 6 picks.
