Oh yea. Definitely. It would give us a chance to have a top 10 defense without making other defensive upgrades.
He is challenging Risacher to a 1-on-1 game during pre-draft workouts.Quote:
"Of course, I want to see him one-on-one. He just doesn't want to do that with me. His agent will not do that with me, and I know he won't. It's a business decision," Buzelis responded to BasketNews when asked if he would like to challenge Risacher in the NBA pre-draft workout.
"My advantage is that I have everything over him," he added when asked about his main advantage that would enable him to win this duel.
Need shooting and defense and playmaking.FTAG 2000 said:
Whoever we take has to be able to shoot. No more athlete projects who can't hit worth a damn from the field.
Unless somehow we can hire Chip back from OKC.

I don't know that anyone REALLY loves Sarr, so I don't think we could get a Chris Webber type deal (#1 for #3 plus 3 firsts) from any team.jteagle said:
If the Spurs end up with the first pick, do you think they would trade it to a team(Wash) that really wants Sarr? And if so, what assets could they pick up?

Castle as the point of attack defender with Wemby backing him is intriguing.

Castle and Sochan on the premier sounds nice.... Defensively
All Castle's shooting numbers are similar to or better than Kawhi at SDSU.Enzo The Baker said:Guitarsoup said:Enzo The Baker said:

It does. The piece we would still miss is someone to open things up for Victor on offense and shooters to keep defenses honest. Hopefully that would come with time.

The more I see his highlights, the more I like Castle. The guy just moves different. You can see it. He gets to his spots at his own pace and has really good footwork. Good size and defensive tenacity. He's an alert passer and can put passes in the shooters' pocket and place it perfectly for a lob. He'd be a major upgrade over Tre, who still struggles to put it in Victor's spot. If Castle develops a good jumper, that dude could be awesome for years to come. If not, he will still be an nba player.
Edit: Looking forward to see him play today.

Listening to a podcast that said he was a notoriously poor defender in high school. The way he turned that narrative in less than a year to the opposite end of the spectrum is wild.

Castle with 16 points and 11 boards for Connecticut. He literally does everything well except shooting the three ball. He's got a nastiness to him. Plays within himself. I like him.
In general, I tend to like guys that played for better college coaches. That's also why I am not as high on GLeague guys, because I've watched a couple GLeague games, and they are prepared less than if they just played in Rucker Park for a year.Enzo The Baker said:
I also like him because UCONN likes to share the love with ball handling, and he has shown he can play without the ball as well.
They should trade both.Enzo The Baker said:
The Hawks are 10-7 while Trae has been out. Will be curious to see if they view DJ as the piece they want to keep or if they are hoping this will boost his trade value in the offseason with the hawks keeping Trae. I would guess it will be the latter.
KOC's write up. He has him at 24th.Sher Thing said:
Tyler Smith is a guy that hasn't been mentioned a lot and I think is an under the radar prospect if we get a pick in the 7-10 range. I like what I have seen of him on tape and he's been the Ignite's most consistent player.
