Everything Draft 2021

[A.I]

Masai is truly a genius if he is threatening to take Barnes at 4 so the Magic cave and trade pick 5 and assets for 4 then they take Barnes at 4 and we get Suggs at 5.

Or Raptors take Barnes 4 and Magic take Suggs and we do a swap with us getting assets back.

[MixxAOR]

In NBA in regards to assets 4 "quarter" players are not equal to "dollar" player. Trading 4th for two lesser picks is not somehow smart asset work.

[Reyaz123]

Perhaps Masai threw the Scottie Barnes smokescreen so that Magic take him at 5, and we can have whoever we want after trading other players for OKC pick 6 or Shai...

[Kagemusha]

How young players are used in European pro leagues, mixed with full grown men in their 30's, is a world of difference vs their usage in the NCAA playing against their peers who are the same age and experience. So nice reach, but not compelling. Find someone from the NCAA, there is no shortage of them.

I want to compare him to Giannis only.
Being that Masai loves Giannis and it's been proven that building around someone like him can work.

Giannis averaged just a rebound more in Greece.
Scottie"s lack of rebounding could be attributed to the position he played in college.

Barnes played around the perimeter on offence but played in the bottom of a 2-3 zone. He’s not a good rebounder, it pretty much has to fall on his lap.
