We have our first "compliment that could be seen as a negative from a different perspective "

On Ace Bailey: "He makes a lot of tough shots." = "His shot selection is terrible". Highlight package full of fadeaway contested long 2s.

I just don't see it with kon.... Especially the 4th pick.. Insane. Feel like his role in the NBA is just a guy who comes off the bench to shoot. Role player... But I could be wrong
yeah he definitely doesnt deserve kj has higher ceiling. he does have the highest floor hornets is a dumpster bailey pretty much refused them.
Im not high on bailey either think he will bust but this is not a good draft hype alone he was top 3.

Any time you can take the next Jon Scheyer in the NBA top 5, you shoot your shot.

Interesting ESPN (excuse me Jay Bilas) scroll doesn't have KJ in their top 15, but whoever picks on the website has him Top 6 remaining.

as expected fears went ahead of kj. he does remind of rose interesting how he translates in a 3pt era.

Jonathan Givony reported on ESPN that Ace Bailey, who was the only U.S. based prospect that didn't work out for any of the NBA teams during the draft process, did not have Utah as one of his preferred destinations for where he wanted to be drafted.

high chance kj ends at bkn. if they do great win-win their guards are bad most ideal for him too in rebuilding team.

Please pick our Illini soon because I can’t listen to these clowns much longer

I hate saying this as a Bulls fan, but I have a feeling they're gonna take Noa and I'm going to be miserable for yet another season
if that happens yeah im not following them the bulls dont have sga to pick role players. ak sucks bc he doesnt trade up he almost always picks in the same spot so kj would have to fall to 12. a lotto team that doesnt have assets to move up bc of treadmill team is tragedy.
i guess the one guy i would forgive is maluach bc he was supposed to be top pick too hes from sudan dengs successor.

demin, cmb pick is great news for later teams. they went ahead of what they were supposed to.

Watching this draft and who teams are valuing make me think the Timberwolves got a steal last year in TSJ thanks to those bogus charges. TSJ is string, athletic, can defend and shoot better than these dudes but is just a bit older.
