I'd say he's talking about perimeter players.
-
Agreed.

JJJ?

Probably the least attractive lottery prospect that I have seen. I mean he cant dribble and he's not even athletic like a Mikal Bridges was.
-
Guys who can't shoot when they dribble are basically Justin Holiday. You don't use top 10 picks on them.
-
I think Garland is the guy we should target because of the injury he should be in that 5 to 8 range. I think he is a scoring combo guard like Mitchell/Harden.
-
That would be called a 3 and D wing. They can be useful in the National Basketball Association. With that being said, it's why I described the players from 5-8 as not sure things. I will add not very inspiring to their description as well. Give me top 4 or let's hope to convey...
-
Honestly, we essentially only have one player that is a building block, and that's JJJ. We have some other nice young pieces, but no one that would be anywhere near being a max player. I think we just need to go BPA no matter what, rather than try to fill a particular position. Whether that's RJ, Ja, Culver, Reddish, etc, it doesn't really mater if we don't convey.
-
Keldon johnson is a poor mans Xavier Henry. Not sure why people are interested in a wing that can’t ahoot off the dribble. Not even a consideration for top 8 in my book.
-
Yeah that was a really good dunk contest

I’m trying to make my post count higher than my read count this year.

I really encourage posters here to listen to "Tony Tuesdays" on Vernon show. He drops lots of gems if you are listening closely. -

agreed ... partially I have seen instances where the talking heads say something along the lines of 'something something something destroyed the young guy's already fragile confidence ...' ' a not fully physically developed young man playing against full grown men who are chomping at the bit to 'welcome' yung'uns to the league' So ... yeah - I think he definitely is going to be rushed into a role that he my not yet ready for ... but then - how does he get ready if not by getting reps ? I guess I agree NO CODDLING ... But - yes feed him again and again and again ... he gets it or he doesn't . I mean ... what did we really have to lose? Compare that to what we stand to gain . Even if its just proof that says - nope. not the guy... need to keep looking It MAY end up as WOW - had Marc and Mike been allowed to keep going with the 'hot potato two man game -> we may not have had the chance to see him go get it. Now -He's got his chance - deservedly or not ... you don't get drafted that high to be a role player. I wanna see what he's capable of. I want to see him WIN ... and I really believe he CAN ! -

Memphis signs Bruno Caboclo to a 10-day
chipc3 replied to The Stro Show's topic in Grizzlies Team Talk
If that is true then this team is in far worse shape than I imagined. Of course hearing that Tony believes he is better than other players is nothing new either. -
I think 4 and 5 are tougher picks. Maybe even 3. The guys in 6-8 probably have higher FLOORS than maybe a guy like Ja Morant (although the upside might not be there). At 6-8 I think you highly consider FIT -- or you look at trading down. If so I would attempt a MASSIVE "trade-down" trade. Maybe throw Mike Conley into that. If we end up with Ja Morant at 3, I think we continue to roll the dice and trade Conley, too -- hopefully for AT LEAST a mid-first, a future protected first round pick, a promising player on a rookie deal, and a guy who could help a Jaren-Morant-Bruno-Jonas core in the short-term. If we go with Ja we basically have to give him the keys to day 1 AND move Conley on draft night. It helps though since we have Kyle Anderson as a really solid play maker as well as back court depth featuring Avery Bradley and Delon Wright (as well as Jevon Carter who, at the very least, is a pest on defense). IF we do that, then you hope we can get an MLE free agent so we can either convey a pick falling outside the top 6 OR we win a top 3 pick and just roll the dice on a big man: James Wiseman or Vernon Carey, Jr. You could plug in Anthony Edwards in there, too, and you are SET.

The good news is most all of the top 8 prospects would fit nicely and be a welcome addition to our gutted rotation next year. The bad news is only the top 4 look like sure things to most: 1 Zion 2 RJ 3 Ja 4 Reddish ---------------- 5 Culver 6 Langford 7 Garland 8 Hunter/Keldon Johnson Hope we don't get caught in no man's land (5-8) but that's exactly where we project at this moment...

If I had to update my Tiers, I think Zion is in a Tier by himself, so he is a legit Tier 1 prospect. Then I have RJ Barrett as Tier 1a. Now, if RJ were a freak athlete then I would bump him up a bit into Zion range. Now, who is after that? Or, what is the next TIER after that? We are pretty much trying to figure out if there are any Tier 1b guys. So, legit top 3 picks, or number 1 picks in mediocre drafts.... Ja, Garland, Bol Bol, and probably Reddish are the big question marks. If they ARE Tier 1b guys then you pick one of them no matter what. If not, they are likely Tier 2 guys in a draft where it looks like MOST players if not ALL the lottery picks and possibly the vast majority of the first round are similarly ranked: so, Tier 2 guys or top-shelf Tier 3 prospects. If so, go with Best FIT Available starting at maybe 3. Or, 4 or 5 if anyone in the Ja/Reddish/Bol Bol/Garland (Culver? Hunter?) level surprise to the upside. This also looks like a draft where if you are top 5 but don't land either 1 or 2 then you think about trading down. So, instead of flipping a coin on Ja/Garland maybe you trade down for TWO mid-firsts or something, go with Tre Jones as your floor general of the future (or hope that Ja Morant or Garland falls, OR Markus Howard super-impresses during workouts), AND get some extra help either on the wing or inside. I would have Zion at 1, RJ at 2, then a mix of these guys filling out the top 10 (plus another 'high level' guy and a potential sleeper/high riser): Ja Morant, Darius Garland, Cam Reddish, De'Andre Hunter, Jarrett Culver, and Bol Bol. Then there are probably 10-15 guys who could legitimately fill out the rest of the lottery/mid-first round. Tre Jones' ceiling might be late lotto but his FLOOR could be late first round. I almost want to put Grant Williams, Rui Hachimura, and Brandon Clarke in this category, too. Two wings who might be slipping a bit (Nassir Little and Romeo Langford) probably fit into this category too -- although either/both could REALLY free-fall. Markus Howard would be my sleeper pick in the 10-25 range. Haven't even watched him really but the guy can score/shoot.
