My biggest concern is Russell's ability to create at the rim. Mudiay has the strength and lift to finish at ease. Russell is going to have to develop a floater because he doesn't have Mudiay's explosion at the rim. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

So, just to summarize, the current draft picks worst-case-scanrio fears are:
Porzingis: Bargs |

Maybe Phil shows him some love. Would have no problems drafting this kid if the right trade down opportunity game along. I think he'll be somewhere in between Jrue Holiday and Jeff Teague in terms of effectiveness. So, a very good guard. ¿ △ ?

Tweet was deleted or there was problem with the URL: The biggest knock against Mudiay has been that outside shooting but he is looking real good at it in this video The algorithm gives and the algorithm takes away

^^^Nice to see more film on him. I remember reading a Spurs scout said that Mudiay's shot would be fine I think this draft has a big four. It will be interesting to see who is available when the Knicks pick. I think Stein is a reach at 4.
I'm tired,I'm tired, I'm so tired right now......Kristaps Porzingis 1/3/18

The shooting comparison is interesting, but Shumpert has always had a strange stroke, to me. Mudiay seems to be smoother, but he still has to make the shots when they count.

Shumpert mechanics were very similar and he has worked on improving them similar to what Mudiay is doing now. Also, Mudiay athleticism is Shumpert level and not John Wall or Westbrook level. That's not bad at all, Shump could get up the court he just would struggle attempting an awkward euro-step or mishandle the ball. Where Mudiay separates himself is passing and maybe IQ. I think the question is if Iman was an actual point guard, not a two, was a good passer and could finish at the rim what kind of player would he be? Is that type of player a lottery pick? Bare in mind that Shump was a fringe Lottery pick who only got picked up in the 1st because of a hot shooting work out. He could have easily been a second rounder. |

Hahn continues to say that the Lakers and Knicks are getting a lot of calls asking them what they are doing, or might do with their picks.
Hahn says the deals would all give them a pick back in this draft, but from what he's heard we are keeping the pick. Also talking about Mudiay maybe having an entourage issue, and that is something they are really going to talk to him about. Have not heard about this, but that would be troubling for me- NYC is quicksand for someone like that, as we know from J.R. Smith. It's probably the reason that I would not want Lance Stephenson, even though he can do a lot as a player.
