Isaac appears solid but where do you see him playing? If we are 5-7 pick I'll take Fox. His jumper seemed fine in the tournament and you can't teach speed. He's got great hands, penetrates, dominated Ball, and is pass first. He can play D. I suspect he will be gone when we pick however. Isaac is a PF no? If that's so, what of KP - does he play 5? What of Willy ? We need lots but a floor general would be paramount

Could he play Sf? Kind of like Giannis build wise but possibly a better shot.

Phil and La La are moving in together. Phil will raise Melo's son, and the boy will Not hold the ball. Summers in Montana will be "Mind expanding" and in time, the boy will be just fine.

IMO he's a SF like Giannis. Isaac is very thin and will take time to fill out. He was a guard until a huge growth spurt so he has guard like abilities. He's VERY active and quick for his height.

A frontline of Willy, Kp and Isaac is very interesting. Do you think you could trade the 6 pick assuming we get it to the Kings for the 8 and 10 picks? Draft Isaac and Ntilikina? Maybe it would take more from us for those picks.

I'd play Isaac at the 3, but I'd like the ability to go "small" move Isaac to the 4 and KP to the 5. I think they're the type of long defensive players you need to defend in today's game.

I'd rank Fox above Isaac, but I think he's going 4th overall at this point. Isaac may go 5th depending on the order of teams.

I think Frank is our best bet if we don't move up. If we do move up, it's Ball. We're going to play a lot of half court and those are the two best "generals" in this group.

It's hard to say but I doubt it. The Kings need a lot of Talent too!

Wolves fans seem really interested in Isaacs they believe he could the defensive big man with range they need to pair with KAT. Also they did draft a PG last year. So if the plan is for Isaac to be the pick hope for #6. Cause Frank is a lot more likely to be there at #7.

We can't pick 5th.we can either move up to the top 3, or we'll pick 6th, 7th, 8th or 9th depending on the coin flip and also who leaps over us in the lottery

Just a dude shooting around, nothing to see here....

Yup...was hoping to get a better look at whether he had been bulking up at all. This little clip doesn't tell use much except that he never misses a shot.

He looks like he's filled out a little to me.

I like this kid's potential. If Gaines is all in on him, I would be, too.

The guys who intrigue me the most that might around at 6 or 7 right now are Ntilikina and Jonathan Isaac. I'd be intrigued with either guy.

Let's not make Gaines into a god yet. Most results are based on sheer dumb luck, not skills. That applies to both good and bad outcomes.

I cannot teach anybody anything. I can only try to make them think - Socrates

There's always some luck but for the most part Gaines and all the scouts have been solid in finding talent despite only having 1 first rd pick.

Wonder if Isaacs will ever be strong enough to play at the 4 on a regular basis. I see him more as a Prince-type SF, though in today's game with minimal play in the post, who knows.

I see him as a 3...
