@@leeko1arda He’s actually underrated at this point. A lot of people are starting to have Ace Bailey over him, and Ace Bailey has a chance to be terrible because of his low AST% as well as his lack of rim frequency. People forget Flagg is playing at the college level at 17, which gives him a steeper development curve going forward. I think his offense was overrated heading into this draft cycle, but his defense is nothing short of generational even still.
Ace doesn’t create enough separation for me. If he can’t separate from college defenders idk how he’s gonna fair against nba guys. Making tough shots is great, but I’d like a guy that can get to an easy shot consistently. I also saw a clip of him last week pulling up for a heavily contented middy in transition and it was a brick
Jazz wont take harper #1. His dad made that pretty clear. They would no question take flagg. If your utsh you have to think about who will fit into the culture of not only the team but the state and flagg is perfect. From Maine comps close to ak47. And his dad doesnt hate Utah for no reason.
As a Sixers fan, I believe we should tank and get a top draft & have a young core of Maxey, McCain & a top player from this draft & have a great future in Philly
Oh yeah Dylan Harper and Ace Bailey are leading the storming Rutgers to a 5-4 record with a loss against Kennesaw St. Anyone with a brain can see there’s levels to it and Cooper is dropping 20+ on any ranked team. Idiotic take
FINALLY someone gets a frontcourt guy for the Kings. I can't understand why a lot of mocks are suggesting guards (although that's all the GM seems to see)
Imagine if my Spurs was able to get Cooper Flagg to team up with Wemby, Castle, Vassell, Sochan, our young starting 5 would be complete and would be a playoff team
VJ Edgecomb at NOLA makes a lot of sense to me. he is somebody who has limitless potential but also has the ability to affect the game in various ways esp for a contending team: very versatile defender that can guard one on one, can guard bigger wings and shifty guard, plays passing lanes etc. Then he is also an incredible rebounder for his size, and he is a good slasher that can work well on a fast or slow pace offense. He needs to work on his catch and shoot and 3 ball but even at Baylor rn he is trying and there is even improvement already. reminds me of Amen Thompson who is contributing IMMENSELY for the playoff Rockets despite it only being his second year. maybe we can have herb jones and Edgecombe become Terror Twins 2.0
@@ua3328 I see where you coming from. People overrated him saying he is the next D Wade...man stop it. I don't think he would pan out to be a terrible player. I think in the worst cases of scenario he would be Isaac okoro who funny enough is the 5th pick. and I wouldn't say isaac is having a bad career because he is currently starting in the best team itl statistically 🤷♂
@@LamarPhino but the songs are extremely good when Kevin Durant plays and he’s not out for the season so there’s no guarantee that that’s a lottery pick especially since they’re currently above .500
MPJ without the back problems is the #1 overall pick and a perennial all star. Look at dudes high school tape. He looked like a stronger, more athletic KD.
If DC can’t get cooper, dylan, or ace, I might grab Maluach. I’m bullish on Bub, and if Sarr is playing PF like he wants, then center is our most impoverished position. But obviously gotta see how these guys all look by the end of the year. Edit: also, if we do grab a new PG, we could take Traore and have 4 starters speaking French, which is kinda sneaky value, being able to communicate without most opponents understanding.
I know you're trying to be different and edgy right now but Flagg is a LOCK for number 1. The jazz would never pass on him for Harper. The second overall pick is still up for debate but I'm still 80-90% it'll be Ace.
If the draft shakes up like that and Harper is the consensus #1 the jazz will trade that pick to one of the other top 4 teams. Would be ideal for the jazz tbh. I think Harper has a pretty good chance of being Spencer dinwiddie. I don't see two way potential like with shai. Dudes that refuse teams have a bad track record of being good picks
Meh. You're limiting the simulation using an old big board like that. Jeremiah Fears? LaBaron Philon? Thomas Sorber? They're not even in that database. Makes me think you just track prospects according big boards. Nique Clifford? Cedric Coward? Thiero not being a first rounder? Idk about you.
4:43 U can always use shot creators lol. Look at the Celtics. Jrue, white, brown, taytum, Pritchard. Prime warriors with Steph Klay dray Durant Iggy Livingston etc
Antonio Davis is the hottest player and the nba didn't even draft him he is 2nd all time ncaa in scoring he was 2 points away from breaking pistol pete record

As a raptor fan we need a score first guy Scottie Barnes is pass first quickley pass first I think rj barrett will be traded in the next year or 2 and Gradey dick is a shooter and a little bit of a shot creator so I would love ace bailey if it’s someone that wants to take the last shot make tough shots and have the ball in the last 2-3 min of the game
I love Zion. Iuv Duke. Zion wasnt the best in College. He was the most talked about. Clearly it was Ja. I only watched Duke vs Kansas this yr. Duke lost and i aint see SHT dat said the Best player in college Basketball is playing tonight. This reminds me of the Zion ja situation Coop gone get d shine, but theres a guy out there NOT being talked about and hes gonna crack ya cross d mf head when he starts gettin his due. Whomever it is.
How? Ridiculous content. Mock isn't in the right order of this hypothetical. Big boards are better at this stage anyways. Then you go around dissing other mocks that are a month old (that's forever in the draft world)... And then you lack the balls to include the entire draft in a deep draft class year... it's not like there isn't enough good young prospects... smh

Flagg isn’t generational or a chance being if he was we wouldn’t even be having a conversation of someone else going 1st
He’s definitely not generational, that word gets used too loosely he can be a very good player specially on defense that is all
He is Jason tatum like player good defence and offence and handles the ball well

Nah deadass trying so hard 2 be different like Flagg is pretty securely the 1st pick, 2nd at worst

Kasparas is the clear number 4 this year, your underrating him considering you have his teammate that sits in the corner all game ahead of him
With terrible depth behind wemby, why would the Spurs avoid a big man again with multiple picks in the first?
The big thing with Cooper Flagg is that he has so much upside on both sides of the court.
Flagg is 17 years old. Hes going number 1. Hes the best prospect in college basketball since Durant
