Tyler Dorsey over Ntilikina? That’s bold. I get that Dorsey had a great tournament, but putting him that high is basically saying you think he’s a lottery pick, which I think most would disagree with. I would personally have Dorsey solidly in the second round – lower than Evans and Williams-Goss but higher than Morris. 

Your SF rankings are throwing me off, too. There’s no way Kulboka declares this year, and even if he did he’s not better than Lydon, Kurucs or Anunoby. Also, while I’m high on Brooks despite his Final Four performance, I can’t see him getting picked ahead of the guys you listed.

 He wont come out until next year or 2019

 having good college performances have pushed Ferguson down your SG list since we haven’t seen him all year (at least I haven’t). But, I’m still buying in on Ferguson. His size, shooting form and youth all make him a player I would bet a late lottery/ middle 1st pick on.

 I agree  I feel like his skills and athletisism are comparable to Terrence Ross at the same age which is high praise considering how much potential Ross had coming out of Washington. Difference being Ross never really got a great oppurtunity to develop into the best player he could be having been stuck in Derozans shadow until being traded to Orlando and thus molded into a 3 and d wing. If Ross was developed by Toronto the same way Derozan was an arguement could be made he would be in the position Derozan is in at this point of his career and when I think about what couldve been with Ross I cant help but see somewhat of a second chance in Ferguson. 

With that being said it would be hilarious if the Raptors picked him just to mess with my head some more.

Ferguson is only going on high school hype. He did nothing while playing here in Australia to warrant a first round pick on him.

I saw the Arizona Wildcats knock off the Adelaide 36ers in a game years ago. 4 year college players who never get drafted can come here and put up 20+ppg so the NBL is really not that strong and for Ferguson to only average 4ppg on 38% and 31% from 3 really hurt his draft chances.

I would have a heart attack if he got taken in the lottery….

Well I guess we know whos related to Arnoldas Kulboka in this forum.

 Am I the only one who doesn’t really see Markelle Fultz as a PG? 

[OhCanada-Participant]

The league has tons of score first PG’s nowadays. To me positional rotations are less about offense and more about where you can gaurd. 

 Fultz projects to be a guy that really forces other teams hands. You cant hide your star PG in this league. You can hide your big men, you can alleviate pressure for your wings but a true PG cannot be hidden. Fultz has the size and athletisism to really ruin alot of gameplans with his size advantage thats why I like him at PG. 

For example if Toronto is trying to hide Derozan defensively they can bring Norman Powell in to gaurd SG’s and have Derozan play SF, or Tucker at SG Derozan SF, or Tucker at SF Derozan at SG, or Carroll SF Derozan SG. Theres plenty of ways to hide him. But you cant hide Lowry because if you switch Lowry to SG most teams will have a guy that is 6’4 to 6’6 that he just cannot bother. So Lowry would be forced to gaurd Fultz at PG or gaurd the SG that can shoot right over him.

I think Tyler Lydon will be a bust, I would take Semi Ojeleye over him in a heart beat…

Jarrett Allen I would take as 1 on that list, although im pretty sure lauri is a centre
