When people discuss this draft so many fans seem to act like it's Fultz or bust. Why is that? He's not on the top of every mock draft right now and it's still super early. Opinions will change dramatically between now and the draft.
Come on Lar, someone with your intellect can't make the assumption that Fultz is going to be #1. I'm really surprised by the lack of hype on this kid. Reminds me of Kyrie/Harden. I think he is far and way better than anyone in this draft. Would def be on a tier by himself imo. Hopefully we have a shot at him.
Ball is my second favorite, but we really need a scorer.
You have to admit though, Ball plays the way the C's want to play, fast and efficient. His efg% is .657, and while he doesn't score a lot inside and he loses his balance on contested shots, his stroke is looking special if it sticks in the NBA.
I agree though, I think Fultz is the more blue-chip prospect of the two, probably will be the elite scorer he projects to be and has the least red flags out of any of these guys. But the way Lonzo Ball plays the game of basketball, he could end up being an all-time great in the modern NBA.
