Michael Porter, Jr. was once considered the best player in his class. His back issues have some worried about long-term risks. However, if healthy he reminds me of a certain player when he was 19. Continue reading NBA Draft 2018: Michael Porter, Jr. Profile
Mo Bamba… Most analysts think that he has the highest ceiling of any big man in the draft. However, many fear he will be a bust. I agree with the former, and completely disagree with the latter. Continue reading NBA Draft 2018: Mo Bamba Profile
On first blush Jaren Jackson will remind you of Serge Ibaka. At his worst he’s a shot-blocking stretch-big, at his best he can be much more. Continue reading NBA Draft 2018: Jaren Jackson, Jr. Profile
Marvin Bagley is a freak athlete who pops off the screen when you watch him. He’s incredibly raw but still averaged 21 points and 11 rebounds per game at Duke, when he should have still been in high school. Continue reading NBA Draft 2018: Marvin Bagley Profile
Luka Doncic is a polarizing prospect. His production in Europe has some saying he should be the #1 pick. While others fear he’s not athletic enough to be an elite NBA player. Continue reading NBA Draft 2018: Luka Doncic Profile
If Deandre Ayton was a finished product he’d be a good NBA player. A player with his frame, motor, and shooting touch is a generational talent that can change a franchise. Continue reading NBA Draft 2018: Deandre Ayton Profile
While I had heard Cleveland’s name before I have to admit I hadn’t paid him much mind. Most people seem to be impressed by his athleticism and a highlight package search does bring up a lot of lob catches but that’s not the only aspect of his game that is impressive.

Another NBA Season is upon us so Josh and I sat down after all of the work of the previous week to make some predictions on how this season will play out. Who wins MVP?

Otto Porter Deal – The Wizards always said they were going to keep Otto Porter no matter what and they followed through on that promise. The Nets offered him a max deal with all kinds of unappealing clauses (trade kicker, player option, etc.) but the Wizards still matched it. The goal was always to keep their blossoming 3 together and basically wait for other teams (The Cavs and Raptors) to age out ahead of them. Porter will need to increase his production to earn the money he’s going to be getting and there’s reason to believe he will do so. Continue reading Washington Wizards – Season Preview
