It IS so weird. Give you credit for trying.

If the pick is Chet, I really don't think he starts at C...way too skinny. PF is more likely. The Magic did play WCj and Bamba on the floor at the same time this season and WCj took the Center role. Chet would provide that upgrade from Bamba in this situation. If Isaac returns, they will likely ease him in at both PF/C spots.

Franz has seized control of the 3 spot for long term future. We got lucky. I did not expect him to be as good as he was.

Ross has requested a trade. Doubt he suits up for the Magic. But we still have a bunch of undeveloped talent at guard and maybe none of them pan out.

Cole Anthony is too inefficient on offense to be a starter on a contender and even if he improves, his defense will let you down. He's a better fit as a microwave scorer off the bench as a 6th man type between PG and SG.

RJ Hampton is something, not sure what. I don't believe in him. He will likely be the one to get squeezed out down the line.

Suggs had an atrocious year offensively, but a star year defensively. Really don't think he is full time SG material. He could be the successor to Fultz.

But I love Fultz tbh. Everything outside of his 3pt shot is sexy. Game comes easy to him and he plays under control at a high level. He's still progressing in his recovery. Easily the best playmaker on the team.

PG Markelle Fultz / Jalen Suggs / Cole Anthony
SG Cole Anthony / Jalen Suggs / RJ Hampton
SF Franz Wagner / Chuma Okeke / Draft or FA
PF Chet Holmgren / Jonathan Isaac / Chuma Okeke
C Wendell Carter Jr / Jonathan Isaac / Mo Wagner

The pick is Jabari, it was mostly just what they should do. Also Fultz really isn't the future anything

I prefer Jabari. Fultz might prove me wrong, but if that happens Suggs is there to be the next attempt.

I know nothing at all about this draft class. Who are the draft hipster favorites who are gonna fall further than they should?

nepg · 06-23-2022, 07:43 PM

Agbaji probably falls because sEnIoR

Jake Laravia and Dalen Terry are big draft hipster guys. might be gone by #35 but one could be there for the Lakeshow.

TACKS · 06-23-2022, 08:31 PM

Who in the draft is the high IQ guy(s) you can drop on any team and he'll figure out to how fit in and make plays? (ex. Haliburton)

Who's the guy(s) with tools and a good sizzle reel who isn't actually that good? (ex. Wiseman)

Laravia, Terry, EJ Liddell, Wendell Moore, maybe Kendall Brown although his half court offensive game might be borderline hopeless.

Jeremy Sochan maybe. Only going off the games of his I randomly saw but he didn't really impress me.

Sochan has too many positives to bomb that hard

Kyle · 06-23-2022, 09:19 PM

Stingy ass owners smh. Kyrie is the only thing standing between the Nets and complete abyss, why haven't they given him the full max yet? I hope they both walk.
