Like Sabonis yet again this year. I think he's going to be a bruiser in the league. Having a great game so far.

Yeah, he's really outplaying Poetl tonight. He has such a meat and potatoes game.

He is the opposite of Gourgi how he uses his body. He's not super thick but plays strong as hell.

Yup, must have a really strong base - legs, core, etc.

Sabonis is a bit underrated. Not a big shot blocker, but has a good scoring arsenal and is a very good rebounder.

Sabonis would compliment both KAT and Dieng very nicely.

Would this draft be worth trading down? I get the feeling that this draft may be a bit of a wildcard. If we could flip our pick (if it were around 4 or 5) into two and get Sabonis and Baldwin in the teens why not? I'd keep simmons and Ingram but I am not nearly as excited by the next tier this year.

The only twosome that I'd do a trade down for would be Grayson Allen and Sabonis and that's in an absolutely perfect world.

Note: I'm not a Baldwin fan at all.

Dunn raised some more flags with me this tournament. I don't understand why he's gambled and reached so much when he's been in foul trouble both games. Their big man just fouled out going for an offensive rebound after pushing a guy during his jump shot. Both guys just showing little IQ out there.

Well for you I guess it doesn't have to be Baldwin. I think he's going to be a player. I'm not sold on any of the projected 3-7 picks outside of Hield, but even with him I think in other drafts he would dip. This draft seems to be full of wild cards either way. I don't see guaranteed value if we end up with the 3,4,5 pick.
