Bamba is faster than the playmaking wing you speak of. That tells me enough about what he can be—the floor and ceiling is already higher for Bamba if you're someone who values defense > offense.
Fair enough. Kuz really didn't get the love he deserved by the scouts.
he got plenty of love, his numbers were pretty bad at Utah, he was lucky to go in the first round honestly
the fact that he's flipped a switch in the NBA is great, but yea
Also, to all my basketball junkies please keep your eyes on this kid...this what you call transcendent:
PS: ignore his height and evaluate the skill level for this age, it's mesmerizing

I'm pretty high on Bagley. to his credit he's more NBA ready now and he's more polished than Bamba at this moment offensively. But Bamba's ceiling is so much higher than anyone else that you can't go without thinking about him 4 or 5 times in the "War Room."
where he lands is going to be exciting for his development.
No ninja, Emoni Bates is a dope story. His father is doing an excellent job developing him and kid genuinely loves basketball with a positive enthusiasm. Also, if you watch him, it's rare to see that handle for any age, especially for a 6'8 8th grader.
KD revolutionized the NBA but this kid is the continuation of the new wave of gaurd skilled big men.
He seems like a fine prospect, I Just think it does kids this young a disservice to start saddling them with the "Next *insert all time great here**" stuff. We seen it with Ingram already. Let them be their own guys.
I agree with that. People are using "the next KD" loosely but they mean to articulate these 6'9+ guys with handles. Giannis and BI are under this tree, but we all know they're two completely different players with different skill sets.
It's going to be very normal soon when everyone's starting lineup consist of only 6'10+ guys that can all handle the rock.
Salah will resurrect FZZ today when he scores twice.
That's just how good he is.
I'll take "things that would have been beneficial in any other draft prior to this year's for $500", Alex
I agree 100% that your big man needs to be a plus defender. If you can't defend the rim, your team has a very low ceiling.
Which I why I question the upside of Ayton and Bagley. There's a very good chance that neither are even as valuable as Clint Capella.
That's absurdly insane. Jesus...
Also God blessed the entire Doncic family. Good lawd.
Coherd is like that scumbag car salesman that's trying to tell you something but you know enough about cars to realize how full of shit he is.
I only really listen to what Woj and Shams have to say. Other than that it's all speculation and rumors.

No way. Top 5. If all goes as expected, should be our pick at 5th.
I remember a Bulls fan was SUPER happy in the GAF Draft thread. Dude was saying Jordan Bell is gonna be great in Chicago, he watched his games, sleeper pick, etc.
A minute later he found out Bulls sold that pick for cash, and he flipped lol.
LOL
I remember his meltdown actually. Then the season started and it made his comments even more hilarious.
JMOOOOOOOOOOOOON
This is the result of when internet bullies pick on the wrong family...
Thought that was his gf until I read the caption. I guess she had him at a very young age cuz she doesn't look a day over 29
Who on that court other than him is top 5 potential?
4 guys are already better than him going into this—let's talk JJJ that's a awesome thread.
Sidenote: "OKC Thunder" triggered me...and he ain't 17 JJJ is the youngest in the draft.
In what sense? The vast majority of the media wants him 1 still...
But he's ranked as low as 7 on some NBA teams' boards. Sounds underrated to me.
