Everything 2024 Draft

[RaptorsVictim]

Can't wait until someone else drafts Edey.

I hope you remember this post two years from now.

I definitely will. I hope everyone who thinks he's the next coming of Shaq remember too. Boban 2.0

[Yuri Gagarin]

Im in on edey mostly because his body looks natural for his height. Guessing and hoping he has a long healthy career. Closer to shaq than boban Id bet

Doesn't sound like you read my last post, so here it is the part on Risacher again:

A few sites have mentioned Risacher cooling off from both 2 and 3. But "he's already played 60 games this season -- nearly two college seasons, with his team enduring G League-style travel conditions. "

I mean sure but the french league is different this isn't new for him if im not mistaken.

dont think he will be either. Boban has been in the league for almost 10 years. he will be a solid 3rd big for a contender.

what does that even mean though?

Some true and honest words about Edey.

I think a line-up of Scottie, Dick, R J , Quickly and Edey will be an amazing mix for us. This is an integrated line in every aspect.

He's never played 60 games. And all those bus trips would still take a toll. Sarr played 27 games in the ABL this year. You think his production would have been as good if he had played 60? We're talking 19 year old kids.

I'd be curious to see how Edey plays on a team that isn't built around him and where he's a role player expected to do the "dirty work". Set screens, rebound, defend the post, defend in space, run hard on every play and also how he would adjust to not getting touches in the post and expected to get his points mostly from cleaning up misses.

badly. he can't defend in space he gives up when beaten. I am not saying he shouldn't be drafted but why are we experimenting on a guy who may not fit at all and vs others who are in this draft. Ware, Clingan are much better options and I would lean against clingan. Get a center who can be more versatile skill wise than what we have not less.

the defence would be abysmal

What does that mean for Siakams legacy?

Siakam doesn't have a legacy yet; he's just a guy

Was going to respond to Primers post with who the hell is comparing Edey to Shaq, but I found the answer - Colin Cowherd. I disagree with Boban comparisons, but the 2 comps I agree with to some extent are JV and Zubac. Both are good players. Both are starters on good teams. But neither plays starter minutes - both are under 20 minutes a night.
