    Low key more excited about this pick than Daniels. Part of it is the value. Other part is just like him as a player.

    SL should be fun to watch again. Assuming they dont move him.

    I don't know much about EJ but I've read that he has a very high BBall IQ... you can never have enough of those guys on your team. Excellent pick.

    He was an excellent college player.

    Freshman season: 19.2% from 3, 0.8 attempts per game. 71.8%FT, 2.7 attempts per game.
    Sophomore: 33.8% from 3, 2.8 attempts per game. 74.6%FT, 5.4 attempts per game.
    Final season: 37.4% from 3, 3.8 attempts per game. 76.5%FT, 6.9 attempts per game.


    College career 52.8% FTr, which is good; 57.7%TS over the three years too, also good.

    Sure but even if he had the desire and the discipline, Paolo is 6'10 250 and he'd push Jax around. EJ is only 6'7 but he's also basically 250 so it works out.

    I don't want to say he's like PJ Tucker because that's like the lazy person's description of a smaller guy who is strong and a bit heavier who can guard in the post even despite not having a huge vertical, but he's a bit like PJ Tucker in that way

    A vital piece of clarification in all film crit

    I am seeing no theories on why he dropped so hard? Every mock had him early to mid twenties... Are other GM's really still dumb and not looking for those 4-year high-IQ defensive already-developed Battier types?

    Decent list, but definitely swap Ant-Man and Iron Man. Then it's super solid

    Every year people drop well beyond where they should. Desmond Bane was a lottery pick his draft, imo, and he went mid 20s. Xavier Tillman was in the 14-20 range his draft, in my view, and he went second round. It always happens.

    Often, as you say, to older players.

    You can watch highlights, I prefer to watch the film study with Schmitz. Such a mature kid

    I kind of detest highlight reels, as you only get the good stuff, obviously

    I love unedited reels

    Just embedding it for people who don't want to click through.

    The Schmitz stuff is great - its a shame he won't be doing it anymore.
