[Draft Crazy]

What do my Blazers do?

Big day for them. They lose, Spurs and Hornets win.

Pretty weak draft.

The freshmen who were supposed to be good underperformed and those who came back did as well.

Knecht looks good, but the things he can do (scoring/slashing wing) are a dime a dozen in the NBA.

Clingan
Sheppard
Sarr
Edey

Again, it’s not perfect, but it’s interesting

Shouldn’t be surprising when clingan and Edey had Zion level PERs this year

Figured Sarr and Clingan would be there.

Surprised about Edey.

And I don’t agree.

My guess is he’s up there for an absurdly high and still efficient usage rate

But I mean that level is like a 3/4 on a title team

So the bar isn’t as high as you think

There is no reality where Edey is that guy.

The rest... okay. I'm not as huge on Shepard. But I guess he can buy Herro 2.0

Yeah that projection is that he’s herro/bane like

I can see that on Edey.

Again, it's not perfect.

Edey is a very weird case study.

20 years ago he's legitimately Tim Duncan.

Further proving how much worse things have gotten.

I'm really curious how he plays out.

He's not Tim Duncan even 20 years ago.

But he's def an outlier
