Well... maybe it's time they draft an ACTUAL PG to play PG, that should go a long way into ending the failed experiments, don't you think? Personally I think Wemby would love Dillingham.

sorry but that's not true. First of all we're talking PGs here, so Giannis or Jokic are ot of the discussions. And second, long term stats clearly show there are very few foreign PGs who succeeded, even as decent back up in the NBA... Even when they come in their prime like Teodosic and Micic, 2...

I'm going by what tier I would have rated them. I badly wanted Doncic in that draft in exchange for Kawhi to the Kings when he was a teenager who won Euroleague MVP in a league where they hate playing NBA bound teenagers.

But, now it's not really money according to CNN...it's just paper.

If he doesn't fall off a cliff next season I would give Jimmy a 2 year run, he's a pro and an overachiever and as a short term investment probably worth it and movable as a big expiring if it doesn't pan out. I would consider it. A couple players I would add to the list are Alex Caruso and Naz...

My top 3 are really close and I'd be fine with any. Sarr, i don't like the fit, but I can't drop him lower based on bpa there. Ibreally like the Salaun upside, but the downside is more likely than the guys above (who also have upside), at least in my mind.

At the end of the day, they picked all these kids to play PG, and 5 years in (where they picked 9, 11 and 12) still haven't their starter throught the draft, notably passing on guys like Maxey or haliburton these last few years... sure they had Dejounte until up 2022 but still. To such a point...

...max out your deductible and pray on a daily basis.

Luka wasn't projected to go #1 in his draft, Ayton was, so he'd have to be tier #1 if you include Luka (and I think Bagley went #2 so he'd be there too if we include Luka). Remember, tiers are pre-draft. Laka would be there if we were re-ranking after the fact.

I'm pretty sure a lot of franchises followed the same logic when they talked themselves out of Giannis, Jokic or Luka (yes, even he was passed for Ayton and Bagley). Any argument that starts with finding patterns based on where someone was born belongs in the garbage.

And he's preaching all the way to the bank :lmao :lmao :lmao

Says the forum poster cuck of insecurity.

I guess I'll have to copy/paste the European point guard post yet again. Here's the most important bit. Foreign* guards in recent drafts: 2022: #7 Dyson Daniels 2021: #6 Josh Giddey 2020: #7 Killian Hayes 2018: #3 Luka Doncic 2017: #8 Frank Ntilikina 2015: #5 Mario Hezonja, #7 Emmanuel...

No offense but "game fell off a cliff" for a few months in 19 kid first pro season might be a tad exxagerrated... For the record, here's Risacher stats his last 4 games in front of an army of NBA scouts: 14.3pt, 6.5rb, 60% shooting, 40% on 3 (5/12), 82% FT (14/17) in 25min. Not to bad for...

Wesley was a very raw combo guard and a FLYER at 25 (as most late picks are). Tre was a SECOND ROUND pick, and Primo wasn't a PG, he was a SG who they tried to turn into a playmaking combo guard until he decided to go for "shorter shorts". To try to portray the Spurs as biased towards picking PGs...

i mean sure but its hard to get excited about possibly signing some bench role player a year from now :lol

The what now?

Lol. I spilled my drink reading the title of this thread.

I think Dillingham is more likely to be a 6th man microwave offensive lead than a starter. Obviously Keldon can't make a second unit work around him, and Dilly is the kind of aggressive on ball attacker and shotmaker who could get his own and generate, but because of his other flaws should be a...

yeah, at this point it's really more about his appearing to be healthy than much of anything else at this point. i'm not saying anything, one way or another, about what i personally think of him though.

That's where I disagree. I don't believe you should pick a PG no matter what just because you need one, indepnedently of quailty, if that's another guy who may end up on your bench. That's precisely how spurs ended up with Wesley, who may have been a top 10 pick this year, lottery for sure, and...

Nickeil Alexander-Walker makes a good target in 25, Wolves probably can't afford to keep him. He'll be an in his prime guard defender who can hit threes and had played backup point some. Has made zero money in his career.

It’s an interesting question. Do you think he develops a reliable 3? Tony was a masterful midrange player, but not sure that would be enough today. I think he’d still be good, don’t get it twisted.

The Spurs are taking Dillingham. Next question.

This again? All I did was make one of my patented sarcastic comments, which as usual you took overly seriously, threw a hissy fit, took a bunch of shots, pontificated and are now pretending I don't understand something that is basic when I was merely agreeing with another poster. Says the guy...

I'm a trend setter. I set trends. :lmao:lmao:lmao

You don't understand how "insecure" works either. :lol boomer princesses
