Jon Posted June 22, 2023 Report Posted June 22, 2023 4 minutes ago, CTMagicUK said: You could say the same about LeBron and Wade. Brown and Tatum. Kawhi and PG. You're over thinking it. No player in the history of the game shoulders the offensive load on every possession of the game. There's more than enough possessions for them to both take turns on ball, they can also stagger their minutes so they have 1 on the court at all times. Having multiple guys who can create for themselves and others is a good thing not a bad thing. Not really. LeBron is more of a Pg than Wade was. It’s more like Westbrook and LeBron. That didn’t work because both absolutely need the ball more times than not. Quote

Lamelo is a terrific shooter and has positional size to play up a position (and honestly would probably benefit from not having to defend smaller quicker guards) Quote

A Better DJ & Photographer Posted June 22, 2023 Report Posted June 22, 2023 I'd love to be in the FO today and listen in on all the inbound and outbound calls. Exciting times! 3 Quote

I just think you’re better off with Miller. Quote

Part of why I was ALMOST glad we didn't get #3 or #4 - I have reservations about Miller's judgement and maturity as a person, but his talent as a prospect is such that passing him up would be very difficult to justify. No such issues with Wemby or Scoot. Judgement on who your friends are and how you act when you are with them can become a cause for concern. Ja is currently proving my point on this issue. Quote
DestroidMengars Posted June 22, 2023 Report Posted June 22, 2023 Reports suggest that some scouts now believe Bilal Coulibaly will be drafted in the 6-8 range. Dunzo on Twitter: "Marc Stein reporting that Bilal Coulibaly could go as high as 6th tonight. He quotes an NBA scout that believes his range is 6th-8th. That's a wild jump from where he was projected just a few weeks" / Twitter Quote

CTMagicUK Posted June 22, 2023 Author Report Posted June 22, 2023 I'll be shocked and have reservations if we pick Bilal at 6. I don't think Bilal is the 6th best prospect in this draft. I don't even think he's top 10. 1 Quote
