Carlton Carrington over Reed Sheppard as a PG? Who is on the Rise?

[@bronxroots6668]

I’m praying that my NYK’s get the chance to draft Jaylon Tyson. He plays either Wing position, and we are in need of Wings.

[@EyeinteeJay]

Devin Carter is the name to watch. He’ll go as high as 6 to the Hornets or 8 to then Spurs. Book it.

[@brandonkorte6446]

I think the spurs would look at Carrington at 8 looking at past picks like primo

[@nsusaint]

I really want the Magic to get Bub Carrington. What do you guys think of the fit?

[@Fgh-ng3qu]

The jist got Anthony Black last year and they have alot of giard on the roster dont know about this

[@astrahl]

Do people make the Ant comparison for Collier? I feel like theirs enough similarities there to make him a lottery pick. Ant in college averaged only 29% from 3 compared to 34 for collier. Similar body type. Defensive upside, number one scoring option upside. He’s got the tools

[@norrinradd542]

I think James helped put the word out to put Isaiah Crawford on the map...

[@smoothhoops3739]

He definitely put me on

[@randeepclair9283]

Reed Sheppard can play pg. It’s like a Jamal Murray situation with Tyler Ulis when he was at Kentucky

[@cheeto8960]

Jamal is still more of score 1st guard and the passing is mid

[@CarloBarlo69]

As good as Rob Dillingham, Reed Sheppard, and Jared McCain are, they’re just so small that they’re going to be liabilities defensively. It makes it really hard to justify drafting them as high as they are mocked on boards

[@stilldre247]

All 3 of these guys have the potential to compete at the level of or better than Fred VanVleet (6’1). Worst case you get Payton Pritchard. I think these guys will be fine

[@CarloBarlo69]

@@stilldre247 i’ve seen a lot of people throw the “worst case you get Pritchard” narrative around, but the truth is Pritchard was a significantly better ball handler, and a very experienced creator, even when he was leading his team in college at Oregon. And Pritchard, as amazing as he is now 6 years later, he’s STILL barely getting any minutes on a winning team because he’s too small and a defensive liability. For a potential top three pick like Reed Sheppard, It’s really risky. Especially in today’s NBA where defense & size is everything.

[@Abdul95Rachman]

Sheppard & McCain are taller than Maxey (& still growing). Maybe it's still difficult to defend forwards, but they are good defenders. BTW, they can dunk.

[@bkelly625]

@@stilldre247​⁠​⁠ Fred VanVleet is an incredible defender… Maybe Reed can come close to that but it won’t happen for Dilly and McCain which is why they will probably go lower than Reed

[@smoothhoops3739]

Small guys can't gaurd is just a lazy take.

[@Fgh-ng3qu]

Collier is better than Castle at least offensively, its a shame he is so underated this dude is actually elite and see him being one of the best if not the best guard in this draft

[@smoothhoops3739]

I think Leif is under rating Reed as a creator. He simply wasn't asked to take 10 dribbles and run the offense because of his stacked roster. But whenever he did go off the dribble he still had great efficiency. Not to mention his 2/1 Assist to turn over ratio

[@smoothhoops3739]

There are so many bad/underwhelming prospects getting mocked ahead of Bub Carrington lmao. I'm not sure what people are watching

[@Clickgoesthebrick2558]

what podcast?

[@MorseCodeMC]

I pray Miami takes Collier so we (Toronto) can get Edey

[@kai1x_]

Speak for yourself lol no thank u.

[@Mumbo.jumbo.]

No thanks lol

[@bkelly625]

Castle is so much more of a functional NBA athlete than Isaiah Collier it’s more than just size. And I know this might sound crazy to ppl who overvalue combine measurements and high flyers but he’s also a better athlete for the NBA than Andre Jackson Jr. just so much smoother and obviously more skilled…. he reminds me of young Jimmy Butler

[@norrinradd542]

what's your mock looking like these days... since we watch many of the same youtube programs including this channel I was wondering if it changed since the last time...

Knect or Sheppard would look in Utah

[@jackieellis8267]

Thulin is high on Knecht, Scheirman and now Carrington while belittling size, defense and shot opportunities of Sheppard and dismisses his record setting analytics, BBIQ and intangibles as a true freshman not considering his other attributes that will most likely improve with properly acquired training and coaching staff. Not saying he's going to be a super star but is as worthy of a high draft prospect as many others. Would love to have a hidden camera in his little Jazz studio if Reed would get selected by Utah...which is a possibility.. his facial expressions and choice of words would be comical and bittersweet😆😅

Collier doesn't defend, that makes me a non believer

[@robitaillecopeland1996]

what boards are you guys talking about? Fellow podcasters? You aren't privy to team's boards. For all you know all the guys that were thought of as the top guys before the season (Holland, Williams, Collier) are still and always have been at the top of boards that matter. You can't rise if you were never low to begin with. These narratives are all in your heads lol. It's your fault for ever having these guys low

[@Clickgoesthebrick2558]

they know people who have access to boards, its part of a scouts job to know the opinions of other teams. they see leaks. dont critize people on things you dont know anything about
