I think stauskas' floor is higher than Anderson's. I think his ceiling is lower. And I think they're both niche role players in a way.

Anderson would need to develop a lot to even warrant significant minutes imo. Risk/reward - he's worth a 2nd round pick to me, but not a firstHeir, Prince of Cambridge
If you see KeonClark in the wasteland, please share your food and water with him.

Heh, if he is in the D-league still in a few years I will be surprised.
He's terrible."

Not sure it's been mentioned, but Smart declared yesterday and TJ Warren declared for the draft today.

It may be possible to not make a very big trade and move up a few spots. I'm all for that if it means grabbing Ennis. Could even be possible with a straight swap of picks depending on how things play out.

Stauskas IMO has one of the highest ceilings in the draft. If he ill realize it or not is a whole different story. That shooting stroke with the addition of ball handing and driving doesn't come by very often. Smart kid and its blown up that he's bad on d. maybe so he will fall to Masai lol!

It's supposed to be ironic. I am white, and while I can't jump for shit now, I'm pretty short and could grab the rim until I was 24. And I like the movie, and in the movie the dude can actually dunk when it counts.

I don't think Stauskas will struggle because he's white. He's got a pretty low level of athleticism by NBA standards. He's also lacking in length, and not particularly strong at his position. Now this doesn't make him an automatic bust. I can see him strugglin defensively, though, quite easily. And I can see him having a hard time translating his non-outside shooting based offence to the NBA.
