Also it's becoming more and more legitimate to not take Lonzo entirely to spite his father and not deal with it

Lonzo is a lock to the Lakers. Ignore the noise.

Fultz ceiling is best pg ever. Hes got good physical tools. Hes a good passer, can shoot the 3, and also long AF. He could very well turn out being a strong defender hes got the tools for it. Also hes not lazy hes got a good work ethic. Hes not a Wall/Rose level pg prospect but hes a damn good one.

2 of the best pgs ever are Curry and Chris Paul, Fultz is a better prospect then both coming out of college.Not saying its likely that he ever becomes as good as those 2 but he has a ceiling that high.

You under estimate the value of natural basketball IQ. It's the single most important trait if any PG. Fultz has everything else on Ball, but he lacks in BBIQ and that's why Ball will be a better NBA player than him.

D.Russell was said to have a really high basketball IQ as well.

Anyways i like both as prospects. I like Fultz better but i can see the Ball side of things. The cool thing is this time next season will look back and know who the guy u wanted was.

This is Steve Nash/ Chris Paul vs Sebastian Telfair. They understand how to win and Telfzir understands how to make youtube highlights

watched an interview with deaaron fox, he's gonna kill the interviews i think - comes across like a smart motivated guy. not making a value judgement yet, but based on his package + presentation i'd be unsurprised to see him rise to 3 over jackson

jackson seems like a smart dude too but as i perceive it, his weakness as a shooter is considered more glaring than fox's atm, which is interesting given that andrew johnson posted his 3pt shooting predictions for this yrs class (link), and jackson/fox have seemingly little separating them as 3pt shooters by the numbers:



now those those projections are based on simple formulas. for example they don't include midrange stats as an input, i'm not sure if that's because it doesn't help (seems unlikely?) or that he just cbf including it. and you can make your own subjective adjustments to the projections above, like taking into account the fact that lonzo shoots like a stroke victim for example

thought lonzo was really good in his post workout interview. very quick and sharp answers, with just the right amount of cliche and substance.

Jonathan Jeanne has the same disease as Isaiah Austin, end of career

Sick he had potential

I thought some recent development or medicine meant that Marfan syndrome could potentially not be career ending

that big white guy from Purdue looks like the poster child for Marfan's Syndrome.

FRANK played great today in a clutch the game 5 of play-offs semi finals (BO5) against Tony Parker's team

He played aggressive on offense 10/3/3, awesome as always on defense direct opponent didn't scored any bucket, Got the game winning steal in the last minute of a 1 point game

Every game of that serie was very close, 4 games were decided on last possession. Frank played great defensively the 5 games, was really too shy on offense on 3 of those games, so overall he was 2/5 on offense 5/5 on D

Knicks should really take him at #8 but watch them trade down.

Basically, **** the Knicks.

Rumour has it kings trying to trade up to get the #1 pick from boston, trying to trade #5, #10 & WCS for #1 to pick fultz. Is Fultz really that much more special than either fox or tatum who will be there at 5? ehh don't think so.

Boston should probably do something like that.

Philly also rumored to be trying to move up. I read AB + #1 pick for Okafor , Holmes , #3 and next years Lakers pick
