Straight up: Who are you sold on at #9?

Let's say we don't move/trade and we pick, which guys outside the obvious are you definitely sold on for us?

I'm not just saying who will be good but who fits and who makes the most sense.

I've really come to like Harris and James Young (Hardaway-esque at times)

Overall, I find the class outside of the 2s kinda hard to figure out so thought this could be a good draft build up thread.

Whatsayyou??

I am sold on the shooting of Staskas and McDermott but not their defense

 

I am sold on the scoring ability of TJW but not his jump shot or court awareness.

 

I am not really 100% sold on any of them, but if I were they probably wouldn't be available at #9.

 

I do think this is a deep class where you will be able to get a quality player at #9 with several different options

Other than the top projected 8 guys:

(1) Harris

(2) Young

(3) Lavine

(4) Ennis

(5) Stauskas

I do not want Lavine.  He is a low production work out warrior.  He may end up being the Bismack Biyombo of guards.

 

And would you rather have Ennis over Payton?   I have my questions about Payton, but I would take him over Ennis

I agree with you on Lavine, but the kid can straight up knock down 3s. Boy has deep NBA range. I'm not even talking about wanting him due to huge upside and athleticism. I could careless about that.

I'm a fan of Payton, but Ennis is a day 1 starter. Much safer pick and high basketball IQ. Size is the only concern.

    • Lanorris Sellers is my choice but I'm biased of course. He should honestly stay another year and develop as a passer though. 
    • DCs have got a couple of years of Canales' play-calling now to see what he's doing the same between TB & CAR. Most fans without an anti-player agenda understood coming in that this was going to be a season about developing the young guys (something most fans have been clamoring for since the soft reboots started taking place), but the coaches are in the same boat imo. Not only does Evero need to show that last season was an aberration, Canales needs to show that he has an offensive mind that can compete with some of these great defensive coordinators around the league. I think one of the adjustments for that particular play is going to be having Tremayne (or whoever the WR ends up being) create a contact with the SS before his break to the corner if the CB has outside leverage. I recall seeing the same (or at least a very similar) play drawn up during preseason where XL was breaking open to the corner after getting to the CBs outside shoulder but the ball went elsewhere due to pressure. Shoot... I think this might be the season that I finally challenge myself to try and figure out which plays/concepts we see most often and when. The last decade of reviewing all-22s after frustrating L's has helped me learn so much more about the game. 😄
    • I think he should keep it tbh and try to improve at it all. We hired him to be the f'ing playcaller and head coach, so deal with the bumps of someone learning on the job with a limited QB. It's fine.
