  1. https://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/2024/3/28/24111908/zach-edey-nba-draft-mock-scouting-report-best-teams-purdue-march-madness Pretty good read on Edey and has him right around where I would in mocks
  2. Yeah I think hawks will have some competition to draft him. Memphis as you mentioned as one spot and then potentially OKC too who desperately need a big and they have the capital to move up like they've done in years past
  3. Donovan Clingan was flat out dominate last night. You watch Northwestern vs Uconn compared some of these other teams with notable bigs and you jus see how excellent on defense he is. Hawks getting 48 minutes of quality center play is something any Trae team needs and getting a much bigger and different style big to O is exactly what the hawks need
  4. His feel for the game is what’s so good to me. If his defender looks away he cuts. Always moving to the open space. Nice forward to pair with jalen
  5. Yeah they high as heck on Gueye. I think they in theory have him penciled as the backup forward for next year especially now that saddiq will miss most of the season Tristan Da Silva is a very interesting player I have my eye on for the draft. 6-9 combo forward that’s a high level cutter, can shoot the ball, and excellent team defender. Upper class man too who is ready to contribute early.
  6. The deal was for pick 20. Clint was going to Houston 20 was coming to the Hawks and they were gonna take Cam. Houston stayed put
  7. 2022 they were all in on J Dub. Once he got taken before them they just did BPA. 2023 they were all in on Cason Wallace. Lively Whitmore and Bufkin were the other three guys they were targeting/considered and it ended up between Bufkin and Cam. They knew Lakers were taking Bufkin behind and they had a deal ready for the 20th pick which would have landed them Cam but Houston decided to keep the pick. Too early to tell who will be the guy right now but it'll come out I am sure of it. Don't have historical data to predict this regime's draft profile as easy as it was fro Schlenk but I am positive we will hear of it. I don't think Cody will be someone they target and frankly he has been awful post injury
  8. That defense that is so much better without Trae looked great last night
  9. Im still picking against them LOL. But if its ever a year they can get a deep run this is it. Bracket is set up for them to get out the region
  10. Yeah I can't see that happening. I personally think only way we get it this season is if they avoid the play in. Otherwise I dont think we will retain that pick this year. I also expect them to make a run for lavine in the summer and get better on paper. All things equal, if you told me the pick was in same spot this year or next and we were guaranteed to get it next I would defer it for 2025
  11. If Edey or Cligan were here they wouldn't start over anybody. I don't think Quin would start any rookie big over either of those guys. Edey would be in the g league learning the structure from the skyhawks. Only big that would probably play up with the hawks imo would be clingan
  12. I disagree. The pick is more valuable next year when we don't have a pick + there is slightly less protections on it next year (1-13). That basically is saying will the kings be a play in team and as constructed there is no reason to believe they won't be. Pick 13-17 in a much stronger class where we own no pick>>>
  13. Had a good plan till you drafted Edey and started him over a much better player
  14. That’s fair. I just think Edey is on the complete opposite spectrum of what Quin wants
