RHJ was slotted 22nd before yesterday. Suddenly - a jump to 16th. It looks like the DE people have heard something.

I tend to trust Givony. He has all the incentive to get his draft as accurate as possible before the real thing.

RHJ is cool. He will be a defender that people will talk about. His offensive game (apart from the jumpshot) is not that bad either.

Still I am not convinced he is BPA at 16. We might have snatched him if we traded up from 28.

"We do so many defensive drills in practice, I come home and I'm putting the press on my woman, denying her the ball.
Y'all are laughing, but it's sad. I go home and deny the wing."

Surprised Mudiay is slipping. I thought he would have done really well in workouts with his athleticism and ball-handling.

I don't see Hezonja as a Phil Jackson type of player. Phil loves guys who defend and rebound at a high level. Who can pass the ball and make plays for others. Not guys who are just scorers. Hezonja doesn't seem like a Phil type of player to me. Winslow does.

Yeah, we definitely need to get up to 12, because there's no way Phoenix lets WCS pass. I'm not sure if he'll really drop that far, but I can't imagine Danny not pulling off a deal to get him somehow if he does.

I think there's no way Phoenix lets him pass because of value, but I do see them as a wiling trade partner, already having Len in the fold and needing wing upside.

If WCS drops past 10 Danny has to make a deal for him.

Given, those [dang] Draftexpress videos on players aren't all-knowing, but it depresses me when I see "Role Player Potential" as a strength for our projected top pick. I'd much rather get an injured player who has star potential.


and regardless of all of that, I think WCS would be great.
wcs dropping to 13 makes sense.  He's just a more famous Bismack biyombo.  But if he's there we should trade up to get him.  I'm fine with the price of moving up 3 spots. I wasn't fine with the idea of paying for a top 5 pick just to land wcs ... Not with biyombo lurking in free agency.

And the injury has nothing to do with it....

I think Sam Dekker would be a horrible fit for us.  We need a WCS or Turner by moving up.
