there isn't anything safe about anyone in this draft
When I say safe, I'm referring to guys that have higher floors without crazy upside. There are some guys that we know what they will be. Decent role players that might become a starting caliber player.

The guys with the most upside in this draft also have the lowest floors. That's why these mock drafts are all over the place. The variance is wild

yeah - i got you

these guys ain't safe role players either is what im saying. its that bad in this draft. that's why a guy like clingan is floating upwards lately - with every workout teams are falling back on baselines like sample size, measurables, and proven coachability.

tidjane for example spent the entire year as a complete goofball but he's starting to stand out simply because he has practical length without hilarious red flags like small hands or a middle school vert.

what's crazy is the guys that needed strong team visits like the g-league ignite kids ain't moving the needle at all.

The Wizards have a good crop of wings, I could see them going elsewhere.
I think sarr is pretty much a lock at #2

Our front office loves clingan, but I dont see us taking him #1.

I see the draft going
1. Risacher
2. Sarr
3. Sheppard/clingan

If clingan drops to 4, I think it's inevitable we make a trade with San antonio

It'd be comedy if Atlanta Picks Sarr to trade him to someone in top four so they can bypass the wizards. Then wizards in turn draft the guy Atlanta likes for instance Clingan on some :ufdup: :ufdup:

My Pops Forever RIP
working on my mock as we speak. I might drop both rounds tomorrow.

Quote me on this 2 weeks from now.

I really really really wanna put Knecht at 4 and Devin Carter at 8 because the bigs are rising and the guards will be there. I'm probably gonna leave Castle at 4, but they have to be sure Knecht makes it to 8 and I don't know if he will.

Got anymore of them Jokics in the second round?
