Can we use some other acronym than STD :cool:

Yeah I give him less credit for Tatum than Brown. But regardless Danny takes big swings for wings in the top 10

Ainge takes big swings in the lottery. Too early to tell on Williams but yeah Hendricks is a bust. Yes you missed out on Hendricks but he hit big on Brown who everyone thought was a bust.

If Ament goes back and has a good year it will likely take a top 3 pick to get him. Guess what, we don’t tank so it will be another year of futility going 8 years now (minus Keegs) of failing to get a big wing. Luckily for me I am looking at theater season tickets so I can put the treadmill...

Projected 3 point shot uses stats to project how well a player will shoot the 3 in the pro’s. Turns out that free throw percentage has one of the highest correlations to future 3 point success.

Aments advanced stats are better than Browns across the board. His projected 3 point shot is .357 which is pretty good for a guy who is 6’ 10” https://www.tankathon.com/players/compare?players=nate-ament--mikel-brown-jr

You will probably get another chance to draft a kid like Brown again. Remember Hali fell to 12. You likely will not get another chance to draft a kid like Ament.

So whose roster would you rather have?

You either have to tank for top 3, take a risk you hope pays off or replay the last 5 years. I preferred we tank but here we are with 7 our most likely pick.

Yeah except guards are much easier to replace with later picks. Big Wings are not. If Ament is there I think you have to take a swing at him or risk being Monte 2.0.

Yeah it will depend in where he falls. My guess is he declares but if he hears he will fall out of the top 10 he removes himself from the draft.

Thinking if we sit at 7 or so we need to take a hard look at Nate Ament assuming he is still available. Getting young talented big wings is really hard and you either need to tank hard for a top 3 pick (something this org won’t do) or take a risk on a none sure fire big wing. Stacking guards...

Too early to tell on some of them.

Jalen Brown, Jason Tatum say hi. He takes swings on guys and does miss some but gets real winners also

Pretty smart marketing on their part to set you up for local adverts.
