Bagley is as good as advertised. Bamba is even better than advertised (didn't know he had the ballhandling ability to bring the ball up the floor). O'Connell reminds me of young Hayward.

I've been watching highlights from them since the beginning of the season. I'm unimpressed. Trade the pick for the best Available pick is my vote.

Highlights don't tell the tale. The way Bagley and Bamba move at their height, their length, their athleticism....high level prospect type of stuff. For example, Bamba looks like he has the potnetial to be a shot blocking/altering 5 on on end, but with the ability to handle the ball and shoot 3's on the other. When his body fills out, he's going to be a hard cover.

You right highlights don't show the whole tale, but they usually make you fall in love with people and I haven't with any of these top 5 rookies. Every last rookie looks like an extreme project. I'm not impressed by a single skill set they have other than aytons rebound timing.

Osetkowski is making some money tonight. Hard to say how much and where and how long. But something

Bamba seems like a cross between Gobert and Horford.  Gobert’s length and a fluid athlete like Horford that can shoot.

Texas really struggling to get Bamba posted...

Not sure if that is him struggling to establish. Looks like it.

The scouting report on him is that he has a shooting touch and a huge wingspan that can wreak havoc on defense.

Basically, he's a better Thon Maker, with all the strengths and weaknesses.

But maybe 5-6 years younger...
