I feel the same way. I just don’t know which of Mathurin and Daniels will be left. Fine with either but I really want Daniels

Question is, does Griff believe in a diverse investment portfolio?
I get the appeal of Benny now more than I did before. I think Willie can get him to buy in defensively, at which point his ceiling as a 3 and D player is elite. He can't dribble, so it may look something like Jaylen Brown, but he was just the second best player on a finals team.
Daniels is so perfect though if you buy the shot. A 6'8 player who can defend 1-3, connect and playmake, run a little PnR, rebound it really well. Plays the exact type of basketball that Willie demands offensively and defensively
I think it goes
Smith
Chet
Paolo
Murray
Ivey
Mathurin
Sharpe
Pels take Daniels. Happily, and he is happy too. Would be my guess on how top 8 shakes out if I had to bet right now
I just don’t see Indy taking Mathurin with Haliburton, Duarte, Brogden and Hield on the roster(plus others). And I fully realize they could trade Brogden and Hield tomorrow, but I still see them trying to go in a different direction if things shake out as it looks now. Daniels is a little more positionally versatile at least if it were me. Or they could trade back or shock everyone.
I think Portland takes Sharpe. If they trade, OKC would take Sharpe but Atlanta or Toronto would take Daniels. So I actually hope they don’t trade it

This is definitely not not a smokescreen of some sort
Be very careful of saying “no way” this time of year. I know it is more alpha to make definitive claims, but you aren’t in their war room. You have no idea
What I do know for fact is that word has spread like crazy over the weekend that they love Sharpe. Made it all the way to two EC teams. Now, maybe they are doing it to entice a trade. Maybe it is real. I won’t pretend like I know for sure
Daniels o/u draft position has now fallen to 7.5. Mathurin remains at 6.5 and Sharpe remains at 7.5
The league thinks the top 5 is set player wise. Just a matter of order.
Sharpe, Mathurin, and Daniels should be the next 3. Sharpe getting serious looks from both 6 and 7. Mathurin from 6 more than 7. Daniels 7 more than 6
Refresh my memory, how 'concrete' was it that we were going to take Murphy leading up to draft day?
Was it less concrete, or pretty similar to who we are (very likely) gonna take this year, should they be there?
I feel like Murphy firmed in the few days leading up, but who we love has been telegraphed a bit sooner this draft

Nance needs to be getting all of Jax's minutes until Jax wants to rebound and defend
