This seems like good analysis.


I have to say I'm skeptical of Jon Isaac.  I just don't like the idea of using a top 5 pick on a guy who might not be able to create offense for himself or others against NBA defenders.  Last year I fell in love with a prospect who had similar attributes -- Dragan Bender -- but the key difference there was Bender projected as an above average playmaker / passer for his size.  Even so, in this NBA I'd rather draft a pick and roll scorer high and then try to find the defensive role players later in the draft.

Gotta say, I still don't feel good about the idea that we may have traded a James Harden type guy so we could draft an Aaron Gordon or Harrison Barnes type guy.

Oh well.  In Danny We Trust.

Isaac, monk and smith are a little too high there. Although I can understand why they're pretty good players in their own right
