NSJ is what Bouknight was supposed to be, an iso guy that can get you a bucket.

I don’t like Nick Smith bringing the ball up the floor or running the offense but I do like him as a combo guard that you can toss the ball to and tell him to go get you a bucket.

He kind of reminds me of Cam Thomas.

Running the point this summer is what's held him back I think. But yeah, that game may be the end of Bouk.

I don't care for Clifford but the young talent on this team is exciting enough to overcome his shortcomings if fully healthy. LaMelo, Miller, Bridges, PJ, Mark is a really really solid core to build around and develop. Hayward and Rozier should come off the bench and are very solid in that role if that's how we do it. We were 43-39 in 21-22 with a mostly healthy LaMelo and Bridges, now we're adding Miller and Mark which are huge additions. If Clifford can't make this roster a top 6 seed this year he's gotta go. But I do think the roster is good enough this year to be a locked in top 6 seed and playoff team in the East if healthy. Miles being suspended for 10 games not ideal but it's short enough we can manage.

A less talented version of this team won 43 games and was in 4th place before injuries derailed the season.

To be fair I like Borrego better than Clifford, not that Borrego was a great option either. fug that Warriors dude for reneging on our deal.

Are you sure? I checked the schedule I didn't see any more games after today.

Yeah it doesn’t show the game yet since they don’t know the opponent or time. Once all the games have wrapped up they reseed for the little playoff and then all the teams that didn’t make it play one more game.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
