koncept Wins RR NBA Dynasty League (S6)

[Axel]

My scouting philo is big on rookies being drafted by the right team in terms of short term fit for playing time experience and skill development opportunities.

Isn't this your first draft pick ever?

Second pick (ever and in this draft).

I should be honest: I'm not sold on Ayton or Donkic becoming the best players from this draft class.

[Apollo]

James' leverage in trading down:


Ayton has more upside than anyone else given his size, athleticism and current production. He should produce right away.

Doncic is the most polished prospect in the draft and probably one of the most intelligent. He should produce right away. He looks like he's five years ahead of most people his age in some categories. Among NBA scouts it sounds like he's receiving that classic "Euro Depreciation".

After them I think there are a handful of interesting prospects and I have no doubt some of them will be excellent. However I do see some serious bust potential depending on how one defines "bust" in this fantasy setting. I think Ayton and Doncic are the safest lotto prospects in the draft by a wide margin and there lies the benefit of picking first.

So when is our draft again?

I've gotten more interest in this #1 than that year ESPN was saying Brandon Ingram was going to be a better player than Ben Simmons because of their math.

Mo Bamba = BPA

Early August I believe?

Mo Bamba = BPA

Call it a gut feeling but I don't think the interest in the #1 is Bamba. I could be wrong. I'm not asking that question though because I do not believe I'd get an answer or an honest one anyway. lol

I think they taking Ayton based on all reports. All his bad pub is about defense. They think he was forced to play out of position all season, which hurt his defensive stats and game film. They think he'll be a much better pro defender when allowed to play his natural position.

Classic anti-counter smokescreen. That's some double-bluff intelligence double-speak, let me tell ya.
