Selections get tougher but the talent is there.

I may by default bring my allegiance over to Monk. I dont love Frank N and I dont think Dennis Smith is a winning type player. Monk in the beginning of the season showed offensive explosion that relatively few have in this draft. Its concerning how he dropped off--his lack of rebounding--I mean there is a lot of flaws but maybe the shooting he can bring trumps everything else there.

That's pretty much where I'm at- I want Isaac, I don't think he'll be available. I don't like DSJ or Frank, so that leaves me trying t get excited about Monk.

If Monk was 6'6 he would be the 1st pick in the draft probably. He literally is the complete package, with exception to his size. I understand it has a major effect on both ends of the floor, but his athletic ability and shooting ability can more than make up for it. How many players in the NBA who are both elite shooters and elite athletes aren't really successful?

Honestly you could say that about 3 or 4 players in the draft. But he isn't 6'6.

No you can't. There's not 1 other player in the draft with his combination of athletic ability and shooting/scoring ability. He's top 3 in both categories in the entire draft. He's the top shooter/scorer in the draft, by far, and top 3 overall athlete.

He will contribute from day 1, is a lights out shooter in a 3 point obsessed league and is superb athlete. With Melo gone we will need the bucket filled and he's not ball obsessed.

Defense doesn't matter? We need defense.
