Luka Šamanić/Isaiah Roby thread

[gouki88]

TP! Nice find right here.

His defence, shooting, passing and versatility makes him seem right up Danny's alley. He might even be able to come in and play ~10MPG if we lose Morris

[wiley]

Add him to the intriguing 6'8" ers.....

Hachimura
Hunter
Grant Williams
PJ Washington
Roby

I think that's the order I'd want these guys in...but no clue.  Like Williams' size for future (PF and center)  And Hachimura seems talented and as big as Morris or a bit bigger (PF/SF)

I have no disagreement with that list and might even add Brandon Clark, Kris Wilkes and Doumbouya all ahead of Roby. Roby is the one most flying under the radar. He's not on a lot of draft lists at all and a second rounder on a few...

I forgot Doumbouya!  I think he'd be my second choice after Hachimura at 14 (as far as guys around that size).

As for late first or early second, Roby looks solid.  I wouldn't be surprised if he sneaks into more mocks as the solid guys start making sense with later picks. 

I'm intrigued by Killian Tillie....something about him tells me he'll be good when he's stronger.

Isn't Tillie injured? He might fall back because of that....

I don't have much hope of the Celtics drafting a good Euro. 

Not because Samanic isn't good, but because I'm pretty sure the Celtics' European scouting department consists of a drunken chimpanzee throwing darts at a board with players names on it.

Why? Yabu turned out to be fine player.

Actually,if they do use a drunken chimp? Just on sheer statistical probability he would've gotten one by now.

[tstorey_97]

Thanks for this good looking player, Androslav! I have a thought.

Samanic + 30 pounds - criminal record = Zinger

Ainge'll trade him for a streaky combo guard, I just know it.

What about Jerebko (the Swedish Larry Bird!) and Daniel Theis (the German Jerebko...)?

[Irish Stew]

Hopefully, we won't have any picks to take him because that means that AD will be here. If we do have picks, he looks interesting. I like the 39" vertical leap and excellent foul shooting. Don't like his lack of strength and erratic 3P shooting. If he is going to be a finesse player in the NBA, he simply has to shoot the 3 better. Interesting. TP.

I like Roby, but I like Luka Samanic more.

But wait, I also like Roby!

DARN IT, LET ME HAVE BOTH!
