    His third leg seems to be lacking in comparison to oden, let me formulate a pictogram to help you understand it better.

    Haha. Anyone but Lillard and CJ. Maybe even CJ. He's the second or third best player in this draft after Towns and maybe Porzingis.

    Dammit, this guy is a bonafide all-star.

    He's also super well spoken:



    Everything about this guy makes me confident that he was the one Olshey was targeting with a lottery pick, which in turn makes me even more confident about Olshey's ability to evaluate talent.

    Learning from past draft prediction mistakes I now put intangibles and bballiq WAY above anything else. I've done this since the CJ draft where I had CJ/Adams/Gobert as my draft day top-3 for our pick.

    Turner is a high iq player and his defensive timing is an intangible that you can't teach. But I clearly had Porzingis rated ahead of Turner. Where he was picked Indiana got a steal.

    My intangible/IQ prospects this year? Denzel Valentine and Tyler Ulis - especially Ulis. Sabonis as well but he's going to be well out of reach of attainability.
