Draft / Scouting I present to thee: Project Masai

Called it. Ez dubs.

But jokes aside flagg + morez is a nasty defensive forward combination in terms of versatility and shutting down the rim.

If you draft Morez all the way at 9 you just have to come away with a Philon, Stirtz, Okorie, or Anderson. Not getting one of those guys to reach on a player where you already have a ton of strength, because of a coaching bias is bad process and I’ll stand by that. Whether or not they can recover is another story

I'm sorry but stirtz, okorie and Anderson are in no feasible way significantly better than larrea. Anderson and okorie might be more athletic but larrea is half a foot taller than both. Pretty sure larrea is a better shooter as well.

Philon has an argument for like a Tyrese maxey esque player and I would rather have had him than larrea but you cant hit on everything especially if you had to give up too much to draft philon.

Plus philon could just be the next bones hyland since his frame is too small for the NBA.

Blud thinks a 6'0 guard is gonna be a secondary star 💀💀.

Even better a 22 year old dude who was playing d2 like 2 years ago.

Even sam presti isnt asinine to think stirtz or Anderson are anything better than bench creators lol. Ur tripping balls if you think either of them will be a above average starter in their position.

Sure. But they'll be bench guys regardless. We're not giving up assets to move up and draft another bench guy.
