I like the fit with Celtics. Bigs tend to get +1 or +2 in TC at inside, defense and rebounds. Even if he turns into a B- D D A- A- C in his prime, he’s worth the pick. Malone on the other hand if he gets a +2 on offense your looking at a B+ C C B+ B C player.


Now these are just examples and have no effect on what will happen. But Malone gives a team offense, Benjamin gives a team defense.

Love Schrempf. Really paved the way for foreign players. In NBA, he was always a 3rd or 4th option. Very underrated NBA player. Bob Pettit was another guy who was underrated. If he played for Lakers or Knicks he would be a legend. Playing for the Hawks, he never had the legendary status. But he was a great player.

I watched a lot of old nba films

A.C. Green got higher potential tho, maybe better for you long term since you don’t look to be competing this year.

I was somewhat surprised Malone went 2

As far as value goes, I think the Sonics had the best pick. Wayman Tisdale will instantly produce for them and at the age of 21, he is much younger than other players drafted in his range. If he grows, he can become a monster
Of course.
No one likes Drexler or Malone.
Malone is only one of the top 15 players of all time.

I was hoping you’d pass on him so I could re-unite him with Stockton :lol:

Both were mid 1st. Of course they were great. Reading past draft results will help you. Top picks that were busts matter. They were top players coming into the draft. Not league. We’re still trying to recreate them players but the game doesn’t always agree

So are draft files created from their scouting reports or their league performance / a little bit of both? I understand injury related busts like Bowie but what about like Michael Olowokandi?

He will be a top rated prospect. But top prospects who played well in RL will get preferential treatment
