Seeking6 Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Interesting that Pacers bringing Brian Bowen in. One more parting shot from me for Kris Wilkes. How's that brand building going at UCLA? Not even in the 2nd round. Signed a deal late last night with Knicks. Maybe those around him who were talking so often during his recruitment will have a presser today to discuss him not being drafted at all??

He’s going to play off the ball. He can play the 2 on offense and guard opposing 1’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People will have to game plan for his scoring off the bench at that position. Theres literally no way he plays the 2 guard unless Ben Simmons is also on his team.

People said the same thing about him this past year that he had to improve his PG skills. That didn’t happen because he’s not a PG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You realize the bench is a completely different commodity than the starters.. he will be put in the PNR and will distribute fine and will score well out of the backup PG role. They didnt draft him to play him off the ball. You dont have 6'1 SGs. He is a ball dominate player. (Which is fine)... but he isnt a SG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Didn't see much talk or continuing conversation about Pacers pick Bitadze. According to experts everyone is saying it's a phenomenal pick, best NBA ready big man out there....very talented on offense,etc... Interesting strategy for 2nd round picks. Only thing I can think of is they see very much deeper drafts coming in the next 2-3 years and want to have as many picks as possible. Trading out of this (weak draft on paper) isn't a bad strategy at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved the decisions to make those trades. Didn't mind it one bit either. Of course I was in the minority when Pacers traded for Vic/Sabonis and actually said that day Pritchard got the best of the deal. Time will tell but 2nd round picks aren't likely to make rosters anyway. Most end up in GLeague and have to fight their way up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGleas Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 53 minutes ago, Seeking6 said: Essentially tweeted out when Romeo was drafted that Archie turned a top 5 player into 14th pick in draft...and he quickly deleted after. I'll say this for Dakich. He's turned his zero talent self into a lifetime of income from IU. I guess I'd expect just a tad of appreciation but with most narcissist types....they just don't see their doing anything wrong. Dakich’s obbsession with insulting and attacking Archie is embarrassing. I’m surprised he hasn’t been called out for it more. It’s WAY over-the-top.

FW_Hoosier Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 With Romeo on the Celtics and Juwan hopefully being able to crack the rotation on the Jazz, we might see 5 Hoosiers in the NBA playoffs next year. Could even be 8 if the Wizards and Kings manage to make it in. Now if we could just get Zeller off the Hornets... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to tell the public about his behind the scenes actions at IU during Sampson stuff and he blocked me instantly. Funny part he wasn't even in involved in the conversation which means his insecure a-- was searching for his name. What a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierhoopster Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 1 hour ago, 5fouls said: I agree. But, in hindsight, I would rather have Romeo in Boston than Miami. Agree. Miami traditionally has been a well run organization and very competitive but they haven’t done well since LBJ left in player development, team development and general front office decision - making. They are well coached, but Stevens is excellent and a players’ coach. Really think the fit for Romeo in Boston is as good as he could have hoped for. He will be developed and given opportunities without the expectation of immediate high level production. With the team Boston has (though losing Horford will hurt) he will have good room on the floor to utilize his smooth, deceptively quick drives and pull-ups.

IU Scott Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Notice at least 2 one and done players not getting drafted at all Dort from ASU and Reid from LSU. again I know I am in the minority but to me to go after one year and not even get drafted is just idiotic if you ask me.
