It's mostly used to make the case that player x/y/z can turn into a completly different player if he fixes a long list of flaws/limitations. If Ament learns how to shoot, finish, pass and defend he could be the best player in the entire draft class. I guess that makes him a high ceiling pick or it just means that floor/ceiling isn't the best way to evaluate talent.
In Burries case it doesn't require some crazy projections to view him as a guy that can handle a bigger playmaking load. But for some reason some people think that it's more likely that Brown fixes his decision making/shot selection or that Acuff won't be borderline unplayable on defense.
As usual you express my own thoughts better than I am.
