I guess the question is what IS worth the #6? I don't think the Derozan deal sounds great to me. If Morey wants to ship out Simmons, then maybe the #6 and cap relief get that done. I don't think Beal or Embiid is available? Gobert... maybe. He's expiring though. Seems to me the best option is to just draft the best player available tbh. And FWIW, I would much rather have Turner next to Collins than Capela

Question is, what out there is worth the #6? Myles Turner would look nice next to Collins, is Capela+6 worth it? Maybe...

It's not quick. If it goes in, it goes in, but I doubt he'll be an off the dribble threat like that, and makes him easier to defend off ball too with closeouts. I think it's the angle (low camera from the side as opposed to the overhead NCAA shots). Could be wrong. Edit: I'll add I LOVE his defense, wish I could love the whole prospect tbh

Looks the same to me. One of the reasons I'm worried about him tbh

Too late to put in a vote for Nesmith? I REALLY like his footwork creating space for his jumper.

If I knew this kid could shoot, I'd draft him easy. The passing, fluidity and athleticism look sharp.

Unless something disastrous happens, we'll be better next year. We've got a #4 pick and some cap to get 3 rotation players (a guard and a couple of wings), if we land that we'll have a quality 10 man rotation and be A LOT better.

Trey Burke, Tyler Johnson and Jordan Bell are interesting. In that order for me I think.

Anthony or Maxey. Flip a coin. I like Anthony's skills so him I guess

Yea, I'm not an expert on the leagues over there, generally respect them, but when I watch clips of Poku it's not flattering. It must be a b-league or something. Even so, that's one smooth 7fter

Voted for Poku, coulda gone with Maxey. Poku's lack of competition is what scares me the most, but all of the individual tools are very interesting.

Probably true on the first front, the only reason they might break them up though is they are in cap hell now, gonna be pretty deep in the tax with no way to improve or even cut salary unless they dump one IMO. Maybe they could use Thybulle (and maybe their pick) to unload Horford, which I would hop on too btw. To your second point, problem is that agreement with Chris Paul ended up with him on an absurd deal, and Paul is WAY better than Gobert even now IMO.

Knew y'all would come around. Once that Philly team implodes in the playoffs, bringing Simmons or Embiid in is our ticket to contention folks. Don't think Gobert is worth all that when he's up for a max soon. He'd make us better next season, but long term Capela+Pick is better for us.

Thought Cam would be a complete bust, has already showed more than I thought he had. Had some belief that Jabari could be a positive

Very true. Voted Hayes but Nesmith is also pretty interesting

I really like Vassell's defense, but am not enamored with his offense at all. Funky shot.

I'll stick with Hayes here. Okoro, Haliburton, Anthony, Maxey, Vassell and Nesmith, Deni all interest me too, have a lot of trouble picking between them. If Wiseman can pick and pop he's also interesting Edit: the question in this draft is who can overcome their one or two big flaws. Somebody like Barrett last year just never had it IMO, but a lot of these guys are a skill away from being valuable

Haliburton is a more versatile passer and defender, and much more aggressive, better motor. Huerter has a more versatile jumper, has a pull up j which Hali lacks. Again I actually think its a decent comparison that I hadn't thought of, but there are some differences in their game. I'll say this: if Haliburton can shoot like Huerter we should draft him, because then he's just a better version, and I like Huerter

Honestly not a terrible comparison athletically, but skillset and especially mentality wise they're different

Both Hayes and Ball are a little boom/bust for me. Tough draft to pin down

Voted Hayes, but coulda gone Ball

Would've voted Okungwu for #1, voted for him for 2. Long term fit, upside, floor, production. I'm not in love with him as a top 5 pick kinda guy but more confident he'll be a solid player than these other dudes.

I guess that's what I mean by special. He is a dependent player, but he's top 3 PnR big in the league at worst. I might take KAT over him due to his passing, but Collins rolls hard and pops really well. He's so good at it that I think we should take some time to try to make it work, cuz we're not getting a more dynamic offensive big next to Trae anytime soon.

I think Collins is special offensively. He's a difficult fit, but he may be worth that kind of money if we can put the pieces around him. He's an excellent offensive fit with Trae, too

Lol. Shoulda known better. Lighten up Supes, all meant in good fun
