Would you draft Reed Sheppard?
A really nice fit, albeit a bit short, but can be a leader off the bench.
What we got GD for then? Just seems like a smaller version going higher cause this draft weaker
We need a veteran guard that's young anuff too pass the ball with the second unit. Defense is a must , LET'S GO RAPTORS 🧪🦖
Thanks for doing this!
We need a great backup point guard prospect.. he's great.. yes he's 'undersized' but so is Stephan Curry. They are virtually the same. size..
I'd gladly take him or Castle at the 6th spot given the chance. Either would make a great 3rd guard for this team to replace Gary's minutes in combination with IQ and RJ.
I like the fit. He's gonna be a player that every team wishes they had. He plays above his size. Gary Payton and John Stockton were short but overcame it with skill and heart. Sheppard and Buzelis are my favorite lottery prospects for the Raps this year. You can't teach confidence, intelligence and competitive drive.
Do some videos on our 19th pick. We don’t even know if we got the 6th pick for sure
The only problem with Reed Sheppard is the need for Raps. With IQ Raps can draft a PG with 19th pick, Isaiah Collier might be there. What Raps need is a 3/4 3&D and these days I'm thinking Ron Holland.
But we already got Dick! We need a Center!
What are you talking about? we don't need him lool. He won't last in the league 😂
We went from vision 6-9 to vision 6-1
Do Nikola Topic next. If he's available after Sarr, I think the Raps take him.
I saw him in that elimination game, he was invisible. I see more games like that in the NBA for hin
I have a couple of issues with reed. (1) shot creation is not the best at the nba level he does not really project as a primary ball handler (not a quick first step, tempo he plays at is quite average.
The second is the stats. I don’t trust college percentages or advanced analytics
I think we need to prioritize size athletic wing over another guard. I still think Ron Holland at 6’8 would be better to work with. The only guard I would draft if available at 6 would be Dillingham
