Adidas is offering NIL money to college athletes now LINK /

Has nothing to do with your examples. No college player is getting $100 million dollars.

You sound like a fake it till ya make it type to me. What's your profession, so I can never utilize your services? With these takes that only a mother could love, I'm guessing sales or marketing.
Definitely not a career that requires public speaking, math, or logical analysis.

Chet will get abused for at least 2 years trying to defend NBA bigs

the track record of skinny white centers in the nba is not good

Luckily we have Jonas for 2-3 years and could use Chet based on matchups. If he’s the best player when you pick you pick him.
I’m likely taking Jabari 1 but I think Chet is interesting for us for sure.

I was all on Jabari a while back at #1, then the more i looked into Chet I started leaning towards him at #1, but i can't get past the fact that literally no one at 6'10" and above that's under 215lbs is worth a shite in the NBA, and Chet is 195lbs. Maybe he'll break that barrier, but the odds are up against him, and to be honest, i wouldn't pick him at all whether we were picking #1 or #8.
Right now i'm looking at this order.
Jabari
Ivey
Mathurin
Banchero
Davis
Branham
Chet
Griffin
Murray

No Sharpe? Yeah not including that kid on your "List" doesnt make sense
Posted on 5/6/22 at 9:56 am to smoke225
I'm sure Sharpe will be in there, but i'd like to actually see him play basketball before making any assessments on him.

One of my favorite parts of the draft is how two people can dissect something so differently. My list looks completely different from this. I think right now mine would be something like:
Jabari
Chet
Paolo
Ivey
Murray
Griffin
Mathurin
Daniels
Sochan
Duren
Sharpe definitely sounds like he slides in there somewhere, but I've never really seen the guy play. Just seen highlights and read about him.

If we were to get the #1, I'm not sure we should decide based on how he "pairs with Zion".
This would be an immediate opportunity to advance the franchise beyond Zion with the core that evolved this year.

lol what?
"advance the franchise beyond zion"??
Did you forget he averaged 27 on 60%? The frick you mean dude.

Whats your top 4 in order for the "Pels"
Posted on 5/6/22 at 1:04 pm to smoke225
For the Pels? Chet, Jabari, Murray, Mathurin.
Shooting, length, defense, off-ball scoring.

My opinion wasn't based on what I think his ability and potential is. It's based on the risk/likelihood that he will be doing that here all things considered (weight, injury, desire to be in a larger market)
Certainly, this is something that you have considered, no?

That’s racist. It’s like asking what the track record of black QBs are in the NFL.

I'm starting to come around on Paolo at #1. Offensively you don't see guys THAT skilled that young at that size.
