The risk or whatever

If Isaac was 15 pounds heavier, would he threaten Fultz, Ball for the number 1 spot?

Think about this kids package. Plus that jump shot is sliky smooth and difficult to guard

It isn't just that he is 10 pounds on the light side of 220, it is that a lot of analysts believe he doesn't really have the frame to fill out any weight.

I don't think he would challenge Fultz, but he would be right with ball if he was like 220/225. He has a very rare combo of skills for his size.

Didnt they say the same thing about KG?

Isaac does not have wide shoulders but has a thick looking shin section.   Better than if he had a twig of a shin

Even if he cant fill out fill out , he can still strengthen up and play the sf spot at the nba

He also a very large cranium. This probably is indicative that his brain is above average in size, which means he will be in a sponge in retaining information and likely have a high basketball IQ.

Dude, the things you write....

TP for making me lol at work Eddie.

Just watching some recent florida state games...

Isaac is for sure a gem. Even though is scrawny he doesnt back down.

A little kg spirit in him?  Has a very nice jump shot stroke. Can shoot it from anywhere. Spot up, dribble stop and pop

With his package , length, if you add 10-15 pounds of muscle he could end up being the best player from this draft.

Rashard Lewis/Paul George comparison is pretty good

I agree with this. That combination of competitiveness, confidence, frame, athleticism, and skills do not come around very often. I like him a lot.

He's number 2 on my draft list.

1. Fultz
2. Isaac
3. Ball
4. Ntilkina
5. Markanaan
6. Dennis Smith Jr.
7-10. Jackson, Fox, Monk, Giles

Brown and Isaac could one day make a deadly one two punch

 Red Alert! Isaac has bad asthma. He has to leave the game breathing hard, went to the locker room, them returned.

 Red flag.

Say No to Isaac. Asthma concerns.

 It's official for me now. No way I want Isaac. To bad he's interesting, but if you saw the Syracuse game, he really was struggling multiple times.

 Too risky with the Nets pick IMO.

Markkanen over Josh Jackson? Wowzer.

Asthma is a very treatable condition.  My daughter had/has it and she won several national titles on a competitive cheerleading team as a flyer.  Also, Isaac still ended up with 19 points, 12 rebounds, and 2 blocks in only 28 minutes.  This in NO way would keep me from drafting this BEAST!!!!

Wot. This can't be serious.

Dominique Wilkins, Dennis rodman, and two of the best long distance runners ever were diagnosed with asthma and were able to cope with it just fine with treatment.

Is it a permanent cure or attacks still possible unexpectedly?
