2018 NBA Draft

[Scoobay]

Grayson Allen adding hockey moves to his arsenal with a hip check... I hope this clown ends up getting his face planted by someone soon. Coach K should do something more drastic already and bench his butt for two games or something.

Saw that. Kid is easily the most consistently dirty and petulant player in NCAA ball. He'd fit right in at the end of the first round with the Warriors.

Why? It wasn't a dirty play. Happens all the time. I'm no Grayson fan, but that wasn't a flagrant foul.

Got to disagree. I see jersey grabbing and other minor stuff, I've never seen a guy on defense stick his ass out to slow someone on a fast break. Not to mention Grayson doesn't deserve benefit of the doubt.

This for me as well. It was a foul not a flagrant foul. In the NBA though it wouldda been a flagrant 2 with how soft that shit has become.

Taken in isolation it’s not the worst I’ve seen I agree. But as part of his larger body of work it just continues to show that rather than playing ball he’s initiating contact with guys in a way that is not for competition. He’s not going for the ball. He’s not running back and playing D. He’s not even trying to set a pick ( where a hip check might happen otherwise). I personally think it’s in his nature somewhere to just try to get away with stuff like that and it’s only a matter of time before he hurts someone or someone gets really pissed at him and rearranges his face.

My revised Board

TIER ONE
1) DeAndre Ayton
2) Marvin Bagley - has been more consistent than Doncic; much is said about his outside shot but he's shooting 37% on two tries a game so far
3) Luka Doncic - advanced offensive game but wonder if his athleticism limits his ceiling

TIER TWO
4) Jaren Jackson Jr. - over Bamba because of range and has stayed healthier
5) Mikal Bridges
6) Michael Porter Jr. - love his offensive game and attitude, worry about his health and explosiveness
7) Mo Bamba

TIER THREE
8) Wendell Carter - steady and unexciting, probably better than he's made out to be
9) Gary Trent Jr. - has a well-defined skillset and consistent stroke; moves well without the ball -- reminds me of Klay Thompson but could just be another Wayne Ellington

TIER FOUR
10) Shai Gilgeous-Alexander -
11) Miles Bridges - upside depends on continued development as passer, shooter, and defender, only reason he's not off my board is he shows up in big games
12) Kevin Knox - similar issues as Bridges but with a lower floor


OFF MY BOARD
-Trae Young - redundant and game doesn't translate IMO
-Collin Sexton - redundant and his tunnel vision has convinced me he won't be any better than Elfrid Payton or Eric Bledsoe

Thank you. I dont get the hype. And Ive watched a ton of bama's games (Im from there). He's flashy, but he will not sustain what hes been doing in the NBA.
