Really hard to see this guy not being at least a borderline-all star at some point in his career isn't it? I think Ball has a larger % of outcomes where he's a transcendent HoF-level player, but Fultz has a super, duper high floor.


Great words from a great man

I love Fultz, but we need to cool our jets. Even if the Nets end up with the worst record in the league, the most likely spot for us to draft is 4th. Projecting Fultz to the C's at this early juncture is a recipe to be let down.

4th?? Lol

Not too likely

I'm eyeing 2nd/3rd myself

Fultz vs Arizona was a little bit of a letdown. He shoots too many jumpers sometimes. Needs to be aggressive and drive in more/start the fast break

Also defensive intensity could be better

BBall ref gives us a 22% chance at the #1 pick today. Thats substantial enough to talk about the likely #1 prospect.

Its also not impossible he gets passed up by Ball or Jackson in the coming months.

He had an off game but you could still see how excellent he is going to the basket and creating his own shot. My biggest disappointment was his foul shooting. Still think it comes down to him and Ball for top pick.

What about Fultz to Brandon Roy comparison?

You've been on this board for how long now, and you still say things like this. I don't get it.

Does this sound statistically plausible to you?

4th is the most likely, but to put it that way is misleading since we have a much better chance of landing 1, 2 or 3, taken as a whole, than 4.

my irrational fear is that we land #3 and take lonzo ball. not that he is a not a good player- i was just looking for the blue chip offensive talent that our team could use. I think we have enough 2 way rounded players (Crowder, Bradley, eventually Brown). I want a scorer to couple with IT, and I think Fultz has a greater chance to score 25ppg in the NBA than the others. I wouldn't be completely shocked if Ball becomes a slightly better version of Rubio.

I have the same fear about Ball

Have seen very little from him in ability to drive and finish at the basket in the halfcourt

Well, worst record has a 64% chance of being top 3. Almost twice as likely as being the 4th pick. I guess it depends on your definition of 'likely'.
