Starting point is 00:00:00 The NBA draft just happened, and we are going to sit here today, and we are going to talk about every NBA draft pick from the lottery's best and worst-case player comparisons. We're going to see that player, and we're going to decide who we think they'll play like an instance in which they hit their potential, and an instance in which maybe they flop a little bit relative to the draft. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 00:00:19 So time to get positive and negative. First player, obviously, A.J. DeBonsa. A.J. DeBonsa. Everyone says the comp. I think it's kind of app. Best case scenario. Tracea McGrady. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:34 Tracea McGrady. I would also throw in like Mixed Jalen Brown too just because his ISO game is just insane. Mad, strong base as well. Yeah, I'll go T-Mack, J.B. Mix. I like that.
Starting point is 00:00:46 Anybody who's going to score in the, in the mid-range be crazy athletic, like the idealized version, DeMarden, Hey, DeBosso. Listen. The way people say, I mean, that's his Jordan, you know, in a different era. Also, I keep mind, when we're talking about the best case scenario for him, it's got to be a player that's cocky as shit.
Starting point is 00:01:13 AJ DeBons is so confident and plays so confidence. Team Mac plays pretty confident. Yeah. If he has J.B., he's the best way in the world. Exactly. So J.B. works too. Yeah. All right. So J.B. and Chasinga.
Starting point is 00:01:24 McGrady mix. Yeah. Worst case scenario. What's the downside comparison? Just big. not scoring out of all. RJ Barrett. RJ Barrett.
Starting point is 00:01:32 Wiggins, because sometimes you can't be good. If he can't move like that, like he looks at those in college and can't blow by people to the same level, it could get R.J. Barrett-esque. Ooh, that'd be real spooky.
Starting point is 00:01:43 That's the worst case. I don't see that happening. But that's the low end outcome. I'll be baffled if he was R.J. Barrett. He can't. He can't. He can't be.
Starting point is 00:01:52 He's probably at least tomorrow. Yeah. Which has glaze. Is it? Yeah. He's at least so, Six-time All-Star. I'm sorry, he's like that.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Be fair. God, DeMarb been a six-time All-Star. Actually, I pulled that at my ass. I don't know what he's been. Probably, he was in the East. I think so, yeah. Yeah, I've made that up, but it's probably about right. Let me see.
Starting point is 00:02:11 He spiritually feels like a six-time All-Star. He's been an all-star for a week. Six times. Yeah. Oh, my God. How the fuck did I nail that? Three-time All-MBA. Wow.
Starting point is 00:02:19 That's a good player, man. Yeah. Yeah, so as I was glad to say, he's at minimum. Devar, but it's probably true. Number two pick. Darren Peterson. best case scenario i mean people always know cobi out there but i don't want to go that far i'll say devon booker with a 40 inch vertical listen i don't know if he if he gets off of the creatine that's
Starting point is 00:02:40 koby all right best case scenario you're kobe yeah he's the athleticism no that's all it is and i don't think he's that level athlete yet yeah not quite kobe actually uh you know it is it no it's tough too to comparisons he might have a crazy three point rate if he hits a ceiling so it might be more like dame with four extra inches and crazy athleticism him. Not Dane because he doesn't have the explosion of Dame as well. Bucksray Allen? I don't think his explosion of Dame?
Starting point is 00:03:05 He's like quick first step. Yeah, he doesn't have that. I don't know. That may be a little bit too much. I think his shot is in between shot making him might be a little bit better. He might have the explosion of Dame. I'm not going to lie. Or, you know, honestly, too.
Starting point is 00:03:17 He could be like Peak Bradley Biel. Pete Bradley Biel is not mad explosive at all. D. D. But he's such a tough. He's a way hard. I think he seems higher than Bradley Biel. I think he is kind of.
Starting point is 00:03:29 He obviously didn't show him in college. He's doing with the injury stuff. I do think he's going to be explosive. I think he's quick. That's what it is. Yeah, I don't know. No, he's not the crazy first step leaper like in the paint to rise up. But I do think he's explosive and quick and is going to have a vertical to his game.
Starting point is 00:03:43 How do we define all this? He's a very unique player. Yeah. I think Devin Booker, if he was told to shoot 10 times, 10 3 is a game and had a 40-inchvert. So Supercharged Devin, Devin Booker? Yeah, yeah. Super Soldier Serum Devin Booker is the high-ed outcome. that's just Kobe
Starting point is 00:04:00 I feel safer with like calling him Bradley Beal at his absolute view he's Bradley Beal at his peak average 30 in the league yeah but he was also it was also a little fraudulent him uh he's also he's not he also made a defender he's also a good defender that is true he did it twice on a bad team where someone had to throw the buckets up no we know what Bradley Beal was yeah I'm not I'm not saying he's the best player in the world but like you
Starting point is 00:04:23 this solid is a good player I just think if that's the best case in error for Darren Peterson good lord we're giving him that the comp for best case scenario? I don't think that's that's a middle tier scenario where I think he could be Bradley Bill for sure. But we're doing best and worse scenarios. I just don't want to utter Bradley Bill's name. Okay. I got this on 2023 Bradley Bill tape. But if we do middle tier, you're right. That could be Bradley Bill. Full of different. Worst case scenario. What do you look like? Aaron Alfalo. Damn. Alfred. Alphalant Talekamp Thomas. Wayne Ellington.
Starting point is 00:04:55 What scenario would he look like way now? What would have to happen to him look like The shoot and his knees are shot. Deioners? In him for an entire life. Worst case scenario? Beyond the strong. He's a good defender, though, so it's tough for him to be as bad as Dio Waders. A motivated D.O. Writers.
Starting point is 00:05:10 A motivated D.O. Writers. Is the worst case scenario? GLP one DL. Waiters. Okay. Worst case scenario. GLP one DL. We're going to make this DLWAT's thing. We're going to find a way to make DLWAT's name you said.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Number three pick. Cam Boozer Best case scenario Best case scenario Super Soldier Serum Kevin Love Which what does that mean? Well no because I mean he's not He's still not like
Starting point is 00:05:42 Slater Bird fuck It might It might be Kevin Love but not with the Not with the serum It might just be Kevin Love with the Duke haircut But he can like move a little better I think he's a bit of opera with him
Starting point is 00:05:55 Kevin Love with the taper You know what I'm saying? Yeah Kevin Love with like, I don't want to say it. More athleticism for a specific reason. Say it, black. His Achilles are different.
Starting point is 00:06:14 How do we compare that? Because we know the type of players gets compared to the Randall, Kevin Love, all the Schengu and these type of like good athletes but aren't crazy explosive. What's the best version of that? Once you at a certain level of these powerful bodies, you get,
Starting point is 00:06:29 explosive. I honestly would say like Super Soldier Serum Al Horford. Al Horford. I thought about that one. Yeah, just plus 10 attributes across the board. What if he's just his dad? What if he's just Carlos Boozer? He moves better than that, I think. I think, Lawrence case scenario,
Starting point is 00:06:46 your Carlos Boozer has the low end outcome. All right. How about he's Carlos Boozer with ply metrics? Like, you know? Pliotics. Carlos Pooser who've been on Pilates. If that was a thing. I'm trying to think what it looks like. There's definitely a a powerful name we can get as good.
Starting point is 00:07:00 good. It moves off the dribble with that much power. Good manipulator of the court pass as well can be a lead playmaker. It should be palo man. It is not. It should be palo. It's like, there's not a lot of players like that that are like point forwards that can really lead an offense in the half court. Yeah, he's a like real between dude. Like he's who what are the Orlando Magic wanted Aaron Gordon to be. Yeah, he's like a Twitter in a good way though because I do think he'll be able to be a lead playmaker. Yeah. The thing about the better power for is Chris Bosch wasn't that. Yeah. How about Weber? it's hard that's a hard era comparison to make
Starting point is 00:07:33 the play style was so different back then they had his ass in the post yeah he's unique I just say Gen Z Weber and call it a day okay high end outcome remember those times people saw the highlights
Starting point is 00:07:46 of Palo Van Carrow and said he looks like old man LeBron that if that version of the player actually existed he could be the good version of Palo Van Caro that looks like LeBron that's so many degrees of separation I don't know about that the 2018
Starting point is 00:07:58 because I remember those highlights are fake as hell He never actually played like the run. He's just slow. He's just slow. The Brahma was slow and he was old. We're wishing to hold on nothing. Nobody can nail this guy down. I think it's unique.
Starting point is 00:08:10 I think it's like plus ten attributes out here for honesty. He's so much more mobile now, Horford though. Sorry, he has plus ten attributes and mobility. Well, then we're not like, never do nothing like him. So like slightly twitching Kevin Love? Sure. We'll go more fluid, high-end super soldier serum Kevin Love. That's an easy way to describe it.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Where's case scenario? Jared Solinger. Boris Diole, Jared Saunders. Hey man, Boris Jail was good, relax. Yeah, he's going to be good before. I think he's always going to have a job in the NBA. Is his floor his dad? Nah.
Starting point is 00:08:41 He could be worse? Even that's saying a lot. Yeah. He's good. That's very good. All-Star. Yeah. How many times was his dad?
Starting point is 00:08:47 Like, one or two? Like barely All-Star. Two-time All-MBA one time. All-Rookie team? 16 and 10 for his career? Yeah. Worst case scenario, Chris Kamen. What the hell?
Starting point is 00:08:59 peaked. He's not a center. I don't know why you keep doing these big men. He's not a big man like that. Honestly, like his dad had two years where he averaged like 20, 20 and 10. If that's like his peak and that's like the worst outcome, the way everybody's talking about him, I think saying, you know, your dad is the floor. Okay, your dad's your floor. You're a career 16 and 10 guy that has a couple of years where you pop, but you're mostly a good fourth option. Now that's too disrespectful to Carlos Boozer. You're mostly a good third option. There we go. His floor is a dad.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Okay. It's a crazy floor. ridiculous floor. Next one. We have Caleb Wilson. What's the high-end comp? His smile looks crazy in that picture. He's chees-in. He looks very happy to be there.
Starting point is 00:09:41 He's a happy guy. He's very happy to be there. High-end. You can say anything you want. I could say KG. You can't? I could say Yonis. People say the KG thing.
Starting point is 00:09:55 I've never seen the playmaking chops for me to feel like KG is a good comparison. Like he's not pulling middies and having crazy playmaking back in the middle of the court. Yeah, he's not there midi-wise at all. That's why I, like, lean towards the KJ Yanis type hybrid. This is where... I think he can be a better playmaker than what we've seen.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Sure. Because the vision. GOP1. Sean Kemp? What's up with J. We love Jop B ones today? Sean Kemp's disrespectful to this feeling. I don't think he's Seacom too.
Starting point is 00:10:30 I think Seacom's like more of a lead ball handler. If Sean Ken, maybe potentially was skinnier, maybe. True, maybe. You know, fucking high end outcome, just say maybe Kevin Garnett. Everyone wants to say it in draft comps. Let's just roll with it. Worst case scenario. Kenneth Farree.
Starting point is 00:10:45 I think worst case scenario is Jonathan Isaac, where he's a very good defender that maybe the offense never comes around and he just has, like, brick hands and can't create a whole lot, but he can still block shots and be incredibly valuable. I've seen that, but I think he's too good of a dunker in order to be someone like, and, like, too, he has too much, like, veracity at the rim. That's why it's the worst case scenario. Maybe he forgets how to dunk.
Starting point is 00:11:05 That's core. He's not jaw. Yeah, nah. He's not jaw. All right, so you're saying his worst case scenario, he's going to be a good dunker before he's a good defender? Ken the freaking block shots too. I fucking, fucking, he's getting rid. He calls it out of the mannimal for a fucking reason.
Starting point is 00:11:22 But he's skinny, though. He's not a manimal. Worst case he's a narrow. He's skinny camera. That sucks. That's a bad outcome. It is. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:32 And who is that? I think of a player is besides, like, modifying a player. Derek Jones, Jr. Is that John Collins? That's actually good. If he, like, doesn't end up creating at all, John Collins obviously is, like, different, but John Collins, when he was a rookie,
Starting point is 00:11:48 that's actually a good comp. Just a man, defender. Yeah. It's 40 and divert for no reason. Yeah. John Collins, you're low and out going, damn. All right. That's good.
Starting point is 00:11:58 Next one. Number five, Keaton Waguer. Everyone says it. Best case scenario, Tyreys Halliburton. If you can be the superstar that can't get to the rim like that, but your three-point shooting and passing is so crazy? Okay, best case scenario. Worst case scenario.
Starting point is 00:12:13 There's a lot of shitty players that can't get to the room. We've seen so many players like him before, man. There a diamond dozen in every draft. It's a Rees Shepherd. Yeah, but he's tall. So it's going to be a lanky guy that can't get by anybody because he's like too weak as a driver. He's a good passer.
Starting point is 00:12:27 It doesn't matter. He can't create separations. Michael Carter-Williams. Damn. So if his three-point shot is ass for some reason, which it won't be. But if somehow he forgets how to shoot threes, it can be Michael Carter Williams. I'm like a lie. I felt like a shotgun to the chest.
Starting point is 00:12:43 That hurt. Let's hope he's closer to Tyrese Albury. It might be a long. Next one, Darius A-cuff. That's Damia Lerl. Oh, my bad. Next one, Mikhail Brown Jr. Best case scenario, that three-point shooting out the dribble, he makes it into a star package based off that.
Starting point is 00:12:58 Darius Garland? No. No? Not the pastor? Yeah. Okay, a little bit bigger. He could be the pastor though. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:05 It could be the pastor. A little bit bigger. I mean, I think he's like two inches taller. He's still be Darius Garland-esque. But Darius is a genius pastor. You were saying Jordan Poole yesterday. That's not the best case though. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:17 That's not a worse. That'd be disappointing. Is that worst case scenario? Low key. No, he could be trash. It would be bad. Where the point? He could be asked.
Starting point is 00:13:25 Yeah. Yeah. It'd be like a more. Oh, who's a better Jordan Poole? people think Jordan Poole is a realistic outcome who's the best version of Jordan Poole? Kyrie Irving I'm not going to give him
Starting point is 00:13:35 I know because Kyrie Irving obviously is a mid-range game that's insane Jordan Poole is a little more like three point and drive off of that Hmm
Starting point is 00:13:44 That is like Dane's too much of a superhero We can't give McHale Barre Jr. Dame Sealing Who's in between you? Melo ball But he's so unique Who's in between Dane pool? He plays really really fluid
Starting point is 00:13:57 I think I just think it's Garland I think it's obviously the passing is a little different, a little shorter. But the idea of being that lethal, author-dribble shooter that can create the pain touches and keep the ball moving as a point guard, Garland's the best I can think of. We could do Garland. That would be bad, but...
Starting point is 00:14:13 It's not the same, though. There may be it. I guess. I guess, yeah, these... All these guards are weird. Yeah. So Garland is the best case scenario. Worst case scenario.
Starting point is 00:14:26 Anthony Simons. Oof, that's a good one. Tough. Yeah. Fake elite shooter never materializes. Doesn't play make, doesn't play defense. He's athletic, too. You could jump high.
Starting point is 00:14:36 Okay. Anthony Simon's worst case scenario. Does he get in a bag? Yep. Darius Acuff. Best case scenario. You were literally Carrierving. You're literally Damian Lillard, brother.
Starting point is 00:14:44 Damian Lillard. Strong as fuck for your size. Is he going to be that type of author dribbles? I know he can shoot really well. But is that going to be, that's like the baseline of what Dame does? Yes. It wouldn't be inverse with Darius. You think it would be more of a driver that can shoot instead of Dame's a shooter that can
Starting point is 00:14:58 drive um i'm talking about just like tendencies now yeah when it comes to young dame i think right now as you speak you had young damean lillard because dame leon because dame leon he extended his range's time went on obviously so i can see that i can see that being being in play for him you was you were saying that you think he's going to be a top five point guard i've seen people say darren williams i like that too i like that too bigger stockier guard because we can never forget those conversations for a moment yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah shout out 2008 shout out conversation Shout out the third grade. We were up.
Starting point is 00:15:30 Talking about DeWill versus CB3. Yeah. I do like the Kyrie comparison just because he's so dynamic of a driver. But he's stronger than Kyrie. So maybe that's not the best comparison. Well, we'll say Dame. Best case scenario, you'll be some type of D. See, if he didn't have as good of, if he wasn't as good of a playmaker too, I'd have been like, oh, that could be like, offensively, Jamal Murray.
Starting point is 00:15:52 Mad if he could boy score can get his bag off right off the pick and roll too. Exactly. Yeah, and Jamon Murray's not fast. He's, like, big and uses his size, like do the setbacks and stuff. He needs someone has a quick first step. He paces himself really well. Yeah. Okay, we'll go, Damien Lord.
Starting point is 00:16:06 Worst case scenario. Oh, man, do I have a cornucopia of bucket getters who can't play defense? Yeah, you're just chucking at that. You were just Cam Thomas. Simple is that. Cam Thomas. He's the poster boy. Worst case scenario, you can give us 40 twice in a row as a rookie.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Nobody will care because you're not playing any defense, not passing that rock. You hate to see it. You hate to see it. You hope it doesn't happen. Hate to see it. This is more about Cam, Thomas Nakeoff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Damn. Fair. Next one. Kingston Fleming. Best case scenario. Your man. Again, he's Mike Conley, bray.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Oh, that's your best case scenario? Yeah. Okay. You don't think he's more athletic than a Mike Conley comparison? I think he is. I think he is. He can dogged shit like that. Yeah, I don't, yeah, that's something.
Starting point is 00:16:47 I don't associate Mike Conley with, like, nasty drivers. But Mike Connolly, like, in terms of athleticism, I think of, like, how quick he was. It was quick. In east-west. Like that type of quickness. I feel like if best case scenario for Kingston, the bounciness really is really a big part of his game. I mean,
Starting point is 00:17:04 he's not more bouncy than McCall Brown Jr. Or anything like that. I want, pre-shot D.R. Fox. Well, Darren Fox is like one-on-one speed. I don't even know if I can. And also his paint finishing is.
Starting point is 00:17:15 I'm just off of his athleticism. Yeah, yeah. Like the jump in ability. Who's someone who wants to play like Fox who isn't quite that athlete? He's smaller or not quite as fast. Smaller? But I think like Kingston's like, tendency will be drive more than like mckell brown will be based on the more like slitheriness
Starting point is 00:17:31 tries to get to know so he likes he likes his midrades game too a lot i think he likes a midrace game because he can't get the room all the time but i think in the NBA spacing in the best case scenario I think he would get to the room more often you know what I mean in the scenario in which he like develops physically and can drive by guys more I think in college that was hard but in the NBA with spacing maybe i think it's also been like a preference thing for him most of his career I feel like we have to go to maybe some some older guards say Chris paul fuck it What the fuck? Okay, best case scenario.
Starting point is 00:18:01 He's your Mike calling. We'll let you have that. Worst case scenario. You're real skinny guy. Maybe can't get to his boss like quite like you want. Just gets pushed around. What does it look like? Reed Shepherd.
Starting point is 00:18:12 Oh, Rob Dillingham in the door. Can't have that. It's a pop. I can't say that's not impossible. 180. It's not impossible. I cannot say that. I don't think it hasn't happened.
Starting point is 00:18:23 But it's not impossible. Dennis Jenkins, maybe. You wish that was a possible. the warsack the best case scenario right next one he's bigger than Rob though a little bit
Starting point is 00:18:34 yeah what does Rob actually list at like 6-1 or 6 flat something like that I think he's listed at he's yeah rob is small he's like 160 or something that's I think he's like 61 on basketball reference
Starting point is 00:18:45 they have him at 6-2-175 it's a lie maybe it is but he's so small like skinny like slender shoulder the 6-2 doesn't even it looks like 6-1 175 that's generous Mores Johnson Jr.
Starting point is 00:18:58 Best case scenario, who's this stocky power forward brute defender that can really, really help Cooper flag being enforcer? Hmm, best case scenario. There's like some, there's so many pass with. No, we do. We've got to imagine a scenario where the offense comes around where not only is he like a like a lot threat like low down, uh, Dunker's what type of guy, but can shoot a little bit. Oh, don't dunker, but can shoot. I mean, those Aaron Gordon, I guess is what we're describing. Honestly, I wasn't trying to go go with Aaron Gordon because that's like it's ap, peak role player.
Starting point is 00:19:27 But he's mad brawlick. rebounder he has defense locked down that's like calling card best case scenario he's the best role player in the league Aaron Gordon because there's not I don't see star scenario you know yeah I don't think that's bad at all worst case scenario the defense doesn't translate quite as well
Starting point is 00:19:42 and he's just strong Montrez Harrow Montres Harrow Montres is a bag Montez is different when it comes to that he's more office oriented yeah so who's a strong defender that's just strong but like maybe isn't quite as skilled just strong Grant Williams is pretty strong there's so many people
Starting point is 00:19:58 like that up 40 yeah obviously who's a tweeter in a bad way I'd say it's Stuart now he's he's an elite defender also he's too strong yeah he's an elite defender worst case scenario would have to be his defense doesn't come around
Starting point is 00:20:15 he's not impactful he just is out there just being a power forward just caduce out there who's caduce who's an NBA caduce Maurice Eric Pasco didn't do too much
Starting point is 00:20:27 Eric Pascal he was thick didn't do anything of it of warranted, but he still wasn't really off. He wasn't anything warranted. Or actually, Patrick Williams. Okay, Patrick Williams can be a worst case scenario. Just big and thick for no reason.
Starting point is 00:20:42 Fair. Number 10. Braden Burries. Best case scenario? Best case scenario is you're good at everything. Worst case scenario is just so versatile. You're good at nothing. He has a jumper.
Starting point is 00:20:58 Is Derek White best case scenario? Yes. I think Derek White. Derek White. I could say at his best as well, like this past season to kill Alexander Walker. Okay, that's a good comparison.
Starting point is 00:21:08 I'll go Derek White just so we give him like a little higher ceiling than Nikiel. Worst case scenario, you think you're versatile, you think you do a little bit of everything, you do a little bit of nothing.
Starting point is 00:21:16 And the next thing you know, bam, Quinn Grimes. Wow. I think we get him lower. We get him lower to Quinn Grimes. Grimes is good. Crimes is good.
Starting point is 00:21:27 We get in lower. Who is a jack of all trade master of none? Dean Wade. He's too big. Yeah, he's too big, and he can defend. He's not nothing. Who's a master of none?
Starting point is 00:21:37 Who's Pajemski but actually bad? Warriors fans think Pajemsky sucks? He's good. Who would Pajemsky be if he actually sucked? Hmm. Uh, is Bones Highland if you play here? No, Bones Highland. He has a calling card.
Starting point is 00:21:52 I guess. Yeah, Boneshan has a calling card. He's had some moments, but like, there was a long stretch in his career where Bones Highland really wasn't on anything. And like you could see flashes of him shooting. Keon Ellis. Purely theoretical. Keon Ellis gets cardio right now.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Okay, okay, okay, okay. Keon Ellis gets straight cardio a lot of these games. I like that. He can't get no minutes. He gets straight cardio a lot of times. He's out there looking like a three and D guy, not doing a lot of three, not a lot of D. Keon Ellis. Okay. Just making, just making sure. Keon Ellis.
Starting point is 00:22:26 His caloric intake is balance. He's got his steps in. His Apple watches. The rings are John Ellis I like that I was gonna say DJ Augustine 2 or something like that but he didn't think he's too respectful yeah
Starting point is 00:22:39 he was fine it was good next player number 12 or 11 yoxel at worst case scenario he retires in two years oh my gosh
Starting point is 00:22:49 because he's social security checks are cashing oh we got to think bottom with a barrel guys uh worst case scenario Kevin Knox no he's too good for that Anthony you Bennett
Starting point is 00:22:59 his floor isn't that low He's already in his prime. We know what he looks like. He's already good, you know? So we can't pick somebody as garbage. He's definitely not that. But he might just never get better. He might just never get better, though.
Starting point is 00:23:10 And solo. So if he never gets better and he is this average big wing. Who is he? Who is the worst PJ Washington? Like a Marcus Morris? The worst PJ, oh, there's so many of those guys. His floor is Markief. You know what's that?
Starting point is 00:23:23 Sure. The worst case scenario is Markief. Best case scenario you mean? No, worst. Worst case scenario. Because he's already in his prime. He's 23. We know he's not ass
Starting point is 00:23:31 Highwood Hayes Best case scenario He's just him He's Yoxel He's himself Exactly you think I think Mark even worse The good worst case scenario
Starting point is 00:23:39 Best case scenario I mean OG Yeah Oh gee Yeah best case scenario If he just like Turns out to be an elite role player
Starting point is 00:23:47 And all the skills he has Translate And he's not done developing Because he's old The shooting Really has to come around That'll be so great I mean it took a minute for
Starting point is 00:23:55 For OG as well OG wasn't a sniper At 23 I think I'll just leave but I don't know if I would, I guess best case, yeah, OG, but really, something more realistic as, like, we're not trying to be really, Washington or something like that.
Starting point is 00:24:08 I think he's definitely going to be as good at future Washington. I don't know about definitely. Definitely. I mean, you know what I mean? Nothing's definite with a rookie, but I feel very good about him being a good thing. So there's no world where he's not as good as PJ Washington. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:24:20 There's some worlds that maybe he's fucking awful. I'm going to get you the keys to hell, man. I feel very good about him being better than PJ Washington in like a realistic middle ground sense. Okay. Because also, PJ Washington, besides the year, who's at Luca? No. A little regular.
Starting point is 00:24:37 I mean, yeah. You went from Luca to Ryan Nemhardt. Yeah, yeah. All right. Number 12. A day Mara. Best case scenario. What is this 7'4-3 giant turn into?
Starting point is 00:24:50 7-3 can defend a little bit. Pau Gasol. Those absolute best. 7-foot-3, Paugasol. But does he have that type of, like, post-game? to have that? No, actually not. Probably not.
Starting point is 00:25:02 He's probably going to be a good defender that can pass a little bit passing hub. Andrew Boggett. Like post-injury, Andrew Bogot, washed Andrew Bogot. Because he was number one pick for a reason.
Starting point is 00:25:11 He was good. Yeah, that's his best case scenario. Yeah. Post-ACL. Especially, I mean, this scenario too where he's playing on the Thunder's now like they're going to be like,
Starting point is 00:25:18 develop into our star player. True. Yeah. Post-injury, Andrew Bogot is best-case scenario. Worst case scenario. There's a lot. Pick your poison of big men
Starting point is 00:25:26 that are a giant but can't do anything. Bobon, worst case scenario. Nah, that's that's tough for Bobaum. But it's true. What you want me to do?
Starting point is 00:25:37 I don't know. Who's that dude? I can't teach Boban to post move. Post, like 2015 and on, Roy Hibbert. That's Router. That means you think he's worthless.
Starting point is 00:25:48 Oh. I was going to say Tony Bradley. Okay, I'm not going that far. He will be better than Tony Bradley. He better be better than Tony Bradley. We're talking about worst case scenario, man. But no, no, no matter what, he's 7.3. So there's got to be one of these giant guys.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Had these have some, like, gimmick value, like a Bobon, you know? Salome measure. Maybe. Totally bad these regular size. Maybe, but then, like, you can't play on the floor. Sure, sure. Worst case scenario's on the floor. Boban wasn't playing deep playoff runs.
Starting point is 00:26:13 If he was getting zeros. Omear Osses, it's a worth case scenario. Sure. Omer Omer Oshik. Pick 13. Nate immense. Worst case scenario. Bruno Cabocalo.
Starting point is 00:26:27 You are Zachary, Isha. Worst case scenario, you are the guy that we're saying Had no business being drafted in the lottery Two years away from me and two years away And in case you forgot he plays for Mo's team Worst case scenario Why'd do that to me, man? I didn't tell Nate Mendeca draft number 13
Starting point is 00:26:44 Here he is Worst case scenario Because it's a guy that's like a big wing size guy That theoretically has all this size But like can't dribble, can't finish The shooting doesn't come around He's just kind of just out there being tall Rishay
Starting point is 00:26:57 But best case scenario he does all those things well and now you're like Trey Murphy plus Trey Murphy pluses What's a good cop? Interesting Trey Murphy, J.N. McDaniels It can be a
Starting point is 00:27:09 Can be a floor Can space the floor Can space the floor Can shoot I think best case Long wingspan can Can defend a little bit I guess we have to give
Starting point is 00:27:19 His ceiling a little bit higher than that though Because if those skills sets come together He could be like really good I don't think that's I don't know if I see it coming either But best case scenario is there I'll say my best case is like Can you be key?
Starting point is 00:27:30 Keegan Murray. Oh, damn. Keegan Murray, keep a job. Okay. I will go. I'll say Cherry Murphy, best case scenario. Best case is Keegan? He can be Keegan.
Starting point is 00:27:44 Actually, I don't know. It's hard. It's hard to be Keegan. It's hard to be Keegan. You're right. King is don't grow on trees. Kikin's get $25 million a year. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:27:52 Fuck it. Best case scenario, Keegan Murray. Big number 14. Last one. Steinbeck. Jonas Falunishudeus. is best case? Oh, I was thinking about worse.
Starting point is 00:28:04 You know, we're so known with best case scenario We're just on the hateous. You're being negative. You're being negative as hell the whole time. Best case scenario, being an elite rebounder below the rim finisher
Starting point is 00:28:16 that has some power can pass a little bit. I'm sure the three point shot comes around in best case scenario. That sounds like, what are you saying best case scenario? Yeah. Elite rebounder,
Starting point is 00:28:25 thick white man that can shoot a little bit. That's like the idea of subonis. if he can't shoot a little bit maybe like old man Al Horford but no better rebounder he's a crazy rebounder yeah he's got to be better rebounder so
Starting point is 00:28:39 can shoot a little bit I don't know like all the elite rebounds Who's the elite rebounds? Who are the elite rebounds the NBA today? Stephen Adams yeah but he's not like Stephen Adams
Starting point is 00:28:52 at all exactly we'd just say Stephen Adams with a jumper Jesus crazy player yeah but he doesn't have a jumper
Starting point is 00:29:00 yet I know, but we'll see. I mean, we're talking about best case. I wish like, I want to say Isaiah Hartnstein. Best case scenario, David West. David West has some moments. Don't laugh too hard. As the offensive rebound or two?
Starting point is 00:29:16 No, I don't know. I'm just talking. That's such a Donovan coded player. He is. Love David West. David West has some moments. What's his worst case scenario? Maurice Hartless.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Hey, David West was two. Two time most are. Offensive rebounding, he's getting about two a game. He's not office rebounding. He's a 6'9 power forward. Worst case scenario, Tyler Hansborough. You don't do nothing. He's out there for energy, just yelling.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Worst case scenario, Ryan Leif. Remember that guy? Lonzo got drafted. You mean T.J. Lee. Oh, T.J. Lee. I was like, Ryan Leif was a draft coach in the NFL. He was a quarterback. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:59 We're at TJ Leaf Shout out to No shout to Lanzo We're getting TJ leave drafted Yeah you got a biggest sec Yeah
