  1. Thanks. I always love your logic rather than jumping in on the media takes. Can Amen reach MSmart’s potential when he was drafted? I haven’t watched either twin enough and somehow if he is just an average shooter I’m guessing Sam will pass since we will likely have higher choices in 2024. If you can get a better Lu Dort without the risk of Amen you take Wallace, and trade up for Coulibaly who is rising quickly. He is a star.

  2. Idk if I see Ausar sliding. Yes there are shooting concerns but. Going from 22% from 3 to 30% on higher volume. Plus shooting 38% from 3 in the playoffs. It looked much improved and was shown by the percentages. If he got to 12 you gotta take him(unless Chip says he thinks the shot wont come which i think is unlikely). He fits what we want and honestly fits better then Amen(but Amen's ceiling is alot higher). We want to play fast without making mistakes. Versatile Defenders and guys who can make plays. Thats Ausar in a nutshell. Hes also shown signs of a Mid Range Game that I think Chip can totally make shine. On Amen. In a scenario where we jump to 4. If Presti belives in the work ethic. If Shai and Giddey believe they can make it work. If Mark thinks he can coach him up. and if Chip thinks the shot can be fixed/reworked. You take him because hes a guy who can truly take this team over the top if he hits.
