After that, I thought I might be one of those people that had an eye for talent, but then for the Luka draft I was high on Bagley, so... Maybe good enough to be part of the kings front office?
I remember a VERY vocal group for DSJ and then I also remember a smaller group that was REALLY high on Donovan even though he never got high in the mock drafts.
We have ALL had our hits and misses, but I do feel like this board tends to collectively do better than a lot of front offices.
For whatever reason my hits have been most successful on Euro players. I really nailed Gobert, Kristaps, and Luka as examples of the recent past (though I seem to have missed on Frank Ntilikina). But I have struggled with evaluating college players for whatever reason. Trae Young I thought would be a total bust....along with Michael Porter....and D'Angelo Russell as examples.
