I think they’re doing a solid job. Feels like they’re getting all the role players before they get their star, which is still the hardest part

OK, this is coming from someone that has followed Iowa state for awhile because I like their scouting at playmaking F. I'm sure there are posts about my interest in the Kings drafting players like Georges Niang and Deonte Burton in the past. Haliburton is different physically and positionally, but Iowa State gets a TON out of playmakers. Remember a guy named Royce white? You have to factor that into things with that system. Haliburton has more potential than any of them and is more natural being a combo G but use him right and those types will reward you. Niang and Burton have both found roles with good teams recently.

Monte Morris has also been a solid contributor for Denver

Yeh they are the only other college team i follow other than Iowa. They have a really great basketball program. I couldn't be happier having Tyrese. Finally a guy that makes his teammates better! It makes all the difference and he is going to be fantastic with Fox.

Giving them and Hoiberg credit, they were ahead of the game. I started following them because you could see they were developing players for what the NBA would become. Now it's starting to pay off.

Steal for them. Butler, Precious, and Bam. See ya next year LeBron. I think Precious can slow him down a bit.

There isn't a better spot for Precious. Really well done Heat
I have a feeling all 3 aren't even worth a pick this high. They may be enough to sneak you into the very end of the first round.

Off topic but is this the most talented the West has ever been? All the teams are stocked with a bunch of players with potential.

Right. Like even with how much we crap on the roster, this Kings roster is probably the best it’s been since Boogie/Rudy/IT

They’re losing Grant and Millsap so I guess they needed another big.
Nnaji has much better size than Faried. I'm not sure about the hustle, though. Faried cared a lot.

Minnesota having an interesting draft to say the least.
Honestly love it. Crowder replacement and with their most of their guard rotation being turnstiles on D (Herro, Nunn, Robinson), Jimmy and Bam need all the help they can get. Precious and Bam is like absolutely ideal for a big defensive pairing in 2020
