mr_hunt Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 meh...i don't even pay attention to 2nd rounders. i remember everyone being pizzed a couple drafts ago when the sixers traded pick 33 to boston & they drafted carsen edwards with it. there was weeks of queefing over that move. meanwhile, the trade allowed philly to move up & draft thybulle....and edwards is playing less than 10 mpg & shot 29% from three last season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Edwards dropped 30+ in a summer league game! He was summer league star after he was drafted. Then everybody realized he's a midget who's a streaky at best shooter. I really just watch a scouting video and try to figure out what they are about and if they can be a future bench piece. Only fools would expect them to contribute anytime soon. Especially on a contending team. Still trying to figure out what Springer is. I guess bust because Keith Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_hunt Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Quote [Vecenie] The Kings taking Davion Mitchell caused jaws to drop league-wide not due to the fact that he’s not worth a pick in that range, but simply due to the Kings having two awesome point guards in De’Aaron Fox and Tyrese Haliburton already Article We’ll get into whether or not I liked some of these moves later, but the James Bouknight fall was a bit of a stunner from his pre-draft process push, and sources noted it may have occurred in part due to reticence regarding a high school meniscus tear in his left knee. Every year, teams privately say that this will be the season where they ignore the doctors who flag players from past injuries, and every year it’s proven that will not be the case. The Kings taking Davion Mitchell caused jaws to drop league-wide not due to the fact that he’s not worth a pick in that range, but simply due to the Kings having two awesome point guards in De’Aaron Fox and Tyrese Haliburton already. fox, please.

DaEagles4Life Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The 29% and 32% from 3 the last two years is concerning and you need your lead guard especially with Embiid to keep them honest. Becomes another scenario where Thybulle has to shoot or screwed come playoff time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_hunt Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 yeah, fox isn't a great shooter. i'd still take him over ben though. at least he seems to be a willing shooter...and he's more aggressive taking the ball to the hoop as well. i'd think that fox would get cleaner looks in philly with defenses focusing on jojo. bagley doesn't exactly command double teams.

Haliburton is not a shot creator. Both have their limitations, yet are excellent players. Which is more likely to develop their missing skill? Don't know. Is not really the best trade option to work with the kings. Unless we get Hield too to sweeten the deal, I'll pass on the incomplete PGs who are imperfect fits here. I'd probably rather a Brogdon and levert package. Or Sexton who is more complete than either of them on offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
