Do Not Sell My Personal Information

almost every player taken in the lottery last year would comfortably be taken with pick 4 this year

Knox, Bridges, Bridges, Robertson. 4 that definitely wouldn't.

don't see it, very slow release, questionable range etc

Quicker release than Reddish, two-way player, notoriously hard worker, improved shot mechanics, play making ability, great vision.

Well, Reddish is terrible. I would happily trade our 5th pick even with knowing Culver was available for Ayton/Bagley/Jackson/Doncic/Trae/Bamba/Wendell/Sexton(if we didnt have him)/Bridges x2/SGA... not sold on Knox may gamble on Culver instead.. I would happily take Knox over Reddish though

robinson is the only one i agree with, both Bridges are very good prospects

Knox was down right terrible this season.
Mikal Bridges has a low ceiling. Maxes out as an Ariza type.
Miles Bridges is nothing special.

None of these guys would be a top 7 pick this year. Hunter is better then Mikal. Reddish is similar to Knox but has better handles/passing even if he didn't get to show it at Duke. Miles Bridges would have sat between 10 and 15 no matter the draft. He's a tweener between SF and PF and is still unknown where he fits long term.

Hunter is not better than Mikal, Mikal can shoot better from 3 and is a better defender + athlete. Miles Bridges is super athletic and can get very hot from outside, easily top 10 in this draft.

I disagree. Culver has a chance to be special.

Agreed.

I think Culver at worst ends up being a Caris LaVert/Evan Turner who isn’t afraid to shoot type of player. A solid 3rd or 4th banana on a good team.

But I think he absolutely has the potential to end up being a Jimmy Butler/Khris Middleton/Joe Johnson caliber second banana. Not a superstar, but a player capable of making all-star teams who can effectively create good offense out pick and roll from the wing.

Have you ever watched Miles Bridges? Dude is so inconsistent its maddening. He's very streaky he would not be top 10 this year.

As for Mikal he is the same as Hunter. Mikal may be quicker but Hunter is stronger. Mikal is Ariza and Hunter is Barnes. Strong defenders who just catch and shoot on offense. Some cutting to the basket but not franchise changing talents.

Yes I have watched Miles Bridges, he is super impressive top 10 this year no doubt it my mind. Are you aware of how good last years lottery was, feels like you aren't.

No. I just watched Bridges for 2 years at Michigan State. Dude has flashes where he's amazing. Im not arguing that. But for those amazing moments he also has moments where you go and wonder what the fuck is he doing. You don't take a player like that top 10. Its bad for business.
