Kevin B Moses

NOt run the break. Run the break.

he is a defensive specialist that can run the break. He may even be an elite defensive specialist. He is more athletic than slowmo. In fact, I think slowmo is not a great fit for this current team. I'd like to see him traded.

Add in Alex-Walker to the starting lineup and I'm with ya. Mike Conley Nickeil Alexander-Walker Bruno Caboclo Jaren Jackson jr Jonas Valanciunas This is a balanced lineup that can play inside out basketball, can rebound, can shoot 3's and play in the pick and roll. This would be a GREAT lineup.

Jaren struggled in the tournament too. Every year you have guys that play like stars in the tournament and they become duds in the nba. You have to look at the skillsets and project what they will be at the next level.

Did you read there respective weaknesses? Alex-Walker's was all based on getting stronger and lack of first step, which isn't too concerning. Coby's has a whole section based on shooting (and release point) and a guy who might struggle to finish once he gets to the nba. Again, the guy that wrote up Coby's projection (at least the part where they thought he could be a star) was basing a lot of that on his athletic ability and quick first step. Coby doesn't shoot as good as Alex-Walker, doesn't have the quick release that walker has, isn't ambidextrous like Walker is, doesn't have Alex-Walker's high BBIQ. I would rather bank on a guy with an electric shot than a guy that has an electric first step. You know who else had an electric first step? Jonny Flynn. In fact if you read Jonny Flynn's write-up in that same website and you read Steph Curry's write up, it mirrors this one with Alex-Walker and Coby White. The point is Coby can't shoot at an elite enough level that makes his first step matter. He is undersized and he will probably get even worse at the nba level. Walker has the size advantage and has a quick release snipping shot that he'll be able to get off at will, and he moves so well without the basketball that teams are going to have a hard time keeping up with him on the floor, and has the basketball smarts too boot. These are just the facts. You can choose to ignore them if you like.

we have one of those guys and you want to trade him for a throw-away first round pick. We have 2 actually: avery bradley is the other. you are also valuing athletic ability over shooting if you want him over Alex-Walker who has better numbers across the board. Alex-walker is taller and longer than coby white as well. The only advantage white has over walker is his athletic "stromile" ability.

Alexander-Walker, know that name, love that name. The guy has the potential to be a star, and he is a far better prospect than Culver, RJ and Cam Reddish in my opinion. He is the best sleeper pick in this draft.

there's a difference between the first ten years of Shawn Bradley's career in the last seven or eight years. The first ten years of his career he was a very good player. then he spent the last six years you know score in one and a half to two points of game. I'm still not on board with Bol bol, because I don't think he can be what Shawn Bradley was the first 10 years of his career, because he doesn't have near the skill that Shawn Bradley had coming out of college

There was so much hype about Shawn Bradley coming out it was similar to when LeBron James came out. I think he was on the cover of sports illustrated. People were calling him the key to the matrix that's how much his skill-set intrigued NBA executives. And Shawn Bradley had a pretty good career but he never lived up to the hype. He would have had to be the next Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to live up to the hype. That's how much he was actually hyped.

You obviously aren't old enough to remember Shawn Bradley if you think that he can't shoot. Please somebody that's old enough explain to him who Shawn Bradley was coming out of college.

You guys need to learn a lesson from history. Shawn Bradley was the most skilled big man of that body type that I ever saw, he is 3 or 4 levels above Bol Bol, and if he can't make it, Bol Bol has no shot whatsoever. And before you guys say Kareem, let's get real.

In reference to the Tony barone information you provided, I distinctly remember something to the effect that Tony barone after the fact maybe even a year after the fact was quoted as saying that he thought the grizzly should have taken Steph Curry. That is not the same thing as putting his line in the Sand on draft night and saying that we should take Steph Curry. You seem to be conflating information. And tyreke Evans was a uber athlete and as a result has no bearing on my theory, which is that shooters rarely have other skills and usually get passed up just because they can only shoot. Tyreke wasn't a shooter he was a uber athlete and so that makes no sense

I don't like overrated ISO players.

People rarely like shooters on this board because in general shooters don't have other aspects of their game that wow people. that's the main reason why we didn't draft James harden and Steph Curry and why we didn't try harder to get Luka doncic. People are really sleeping on Alexander-Walker. Because he is not jump out of the gym or does he have supreme ball skills. But this guy could certainly be a 20-point scorer in this league.

The player that best fits with the grizzlies in the draft right now is Nickeil Alexander-Walker. In 2016 his measurements were: Measurements: 6'5, 6'9 wing span. I also didn't know that he was ambidextrous, that's even more intriguing. It's safe to say that if he has grown any (by the combine), he should be at the top of our draft board. The grizzlies have missed on James Harden and Steph Curry for similar reasons. Having a guy with size and that can defend his position with that kind of quick release 3, the grizzlies would be stupid to pass on his, in my opinion. He probably doesn't have the handle of Curry or Kyrie, but he moves very well without the ball and has the ability to shoot over quite a few people. He also has been a lead guard and has better than average vision for the off-guard spot and he is another ball-handler. Although my favorite player still in the draft is: Hunter and obviously Zion is the best player in the draft. I still like Garland, too. I am really really intrigued by Alex-Walker. 1. Zion 2. Hunter 3/4. Garland or Alex-Walker 5. Bruno Fernando.
