GimmeDat's 2019 B.B.

[pad300]

I can't see SAS taking Porter that high (not with his injury issues, maybe with 29), but I could see them taking Bol Bol, if they fall in love with his potential.

[DrCoach]

IF Atl is making East Coast GD

Pg- Trey
Sg- Maryland kid
Sf-Prince
Pf-(Clarke or Hunter
C-Collins

PF -Draymond type is missing
Sf-Let’s Assume Prince is Harrison Barnes

They need versitke defenders ( Iggy and Green)
And another scorer

Hunter, Clarke, Reddish?

[PerkinsFor3]

Nope. GSW was great team building, training and scouting, bbut there's a lot of luck involved when it comes to those players/pieces beibg available at those times. Curry and Dray are extreme outliers.

Kyle Guy is someone I need to look in to more, I'm assuming he's a guy that gets drafted. Also Zach Norvell is super on the edge of draftable for me, probably does deserve a spot. Another guy I don't have listed is Pickett, obviously top 60 but I took him out a little while ago because I thought he'd withdraw and I feel like he will probably still do that so I'm going to keep him off for now. Lots of good value UDFA's as well, this draft is deep, and plenty of other guys that could've sneaked in there. And Nowell's not up there yet either.

*Updated it 21/5, didn't think it was worth a new post, few moves and threw Pickett back in there.

Surprised you have Windler and Roby so far down. I can see the Kings taking both with their picks.

I quite like both guys, it's tough to rank all these 2nd round guys because they all have appeal. I like Roby's potential but he has the passiveness concerns on both ends and shot is a bit unproven. Looking at the board now he could probably stand to go up maybe 3-5 spots or so but I think there's just enough to keep him down from the top of the 2nd. Still could be very good if he gets it together.

Same with Windler, like him but just enough question marks to keep him down a little. He measured well though, that's encouraging. Will always be a slightly uphill battle convincing people of his translation so I think that just gives other guys a slight edge.

I didn't read through the thread so apologies if you addressed this already, but are you ranking these solely as BPA or are you taking things like team fit and promises/ranges thought to be given to guys like Rui and Matisse who skipped the Combine. I ask because, for instance, Spurs have a ton of SGs and some pure shooters, so Herro at #19 would be a surprise, especially if Nas, Rui or Bruno were still available.

Scuttlebutt has it that Rui (in particular) and Bruno (not as set, but Charlotte and Orlando have interest) are in the lottery, and Matisse has been linked to Thunder at #21. Also, Luka has had a great showing at the Combine so I'm curious why he dropped a couple of spots. Nice to see Matthews on your list. He's impressed on defense in workouts. Thanks.

No worries. This is just a pure big board, team needs not being taken in to account.

It certainly seems like Rui will go to Minny at 14, unless a team before them snatches him (which I would wager is highly unlikely).

As for Bruno, that's an interesting one. Always lots of smoke so I don't know what to buy in to Charlotte or Orlando's interest, it's a bit more vague of a rumor (who knows how many people they 'like', and nothing concrete like a promise suggestion). Orlando, I would've thought, would be looking to the perimeter as opposed to another C, Charlotte too are not in desperate need but if a team likes someone they like them, regardless of need.

My understanding is the notion of Thybulle to OKC was blown out of proportion from a Cole Zwicker tweet saying he thought it could be a likely destination because it seems like a very 'Presti pick', so I don't think that's concrete either, but like him, I could definitely see it being the case.

Honestly, it would not surprise me to see Matthews go undrafted, I think he's going to be a niche defensive specialist at best because he doesn't really have any offensive game, but given how well he's supposedly done in these workouts shutting guys down, as well as the combine where he was excellent, I think that's enough momentum to give him an edge in the late 2nd. It's a real wash in the 2nd round with a great depth of fringe draftable talent, so I think little things like that are going to seperate guys for teams.

I don't think he was trying to say Magic take PJ. It is just his big board ranking prospects in the order he would take them in a vacuum.

[GimmeDat]

10 days out before the draft, I'm looking at this and I'm fairly happy with it still, which is unlike me, constantly updating it. I would probably...

- Bump Edwards up 5-ish spots
- Maybe move Okeke up a few (I think he'd be lottery for me if not for the ACL)
- Leque would go a bit higher in the 2nd for me because I looked in to his jumper a bit more and I don't think it's as broken as I initially thought
- I guess you could move Matthews out given he did the ACL, terrible luck for him
- The last maybe 7 picks in the 2nd round could do with a reshuffle, I'm finding that to be a bit of a crap shoot, any number of guys you could go with in that range.

12/6 Edit -

So Eboua and Zagars are out. Off the top of my head, Norvell, Paschall, Waters, McDowell-White, Wade, Obiesie, B.Brown, Mokoka, Mann, Konate, Oni are some names that could plug the gaps in the 2nd round. Didi and Sedekerskis aren't far off either, imo.

I hadn't really looked in to Mann before today, doing so now and he definitely looks draftable. Strong defense, passing, crashes boards, athletic, efficient finisher. Looks like if the jumper works out respectively he can be a solid versatile forward. Might even be a mid-2nd, glad I got around to him.

[GimmeDat]

Barring any unforeseen changes in my stance, I think this is going to be it. Spent a bit of time to-ing and fro-ing with the end of the 2nd round the realized how unimportant it is, really. Put a little UDFA list at the bottom, more for myself so I don't forget guys as well. Obviously it's not an exhaustive list either.

Can't see SAS taking Okeke (and his injury) at 19...Personal preference would be Claxton, but I could see them going Little or Hachimura (maybe even Bazley if he really impressed in the workout he did for them...).

Fernando seems like the pick for Spurs imo

[GimmeDat]

Just remember, big board - I'm not saying the teams are taking the guys at these spots, per se.

That said, I do think Okeke is a classic Spurs pick. I agree that Little/Claxton/Hachimura are all great possibilities for them as well. Fernando is fine in that range too I guess.

Yeah, I could see Fernando at 29 if he's there. I just can't see Okeke at 19 given he's injured for a year.
