    Default Egor Denim discussion thread

    Watching him play last night and I see why we drafted him

    His shot looks nice despite his horrific percentages in college and he's got that natural feeling to the game these Euro guys have

    His floor is Josh Giddy and his ceiling is Luka

    He has a higher ceiling than anyone in the draft, Flagg is the best right now but he doesn't have a the MVP ceiling the likes of Denim has

    Manny at it again

    This guy was a horrible pick according to him during the draft, now he's a future MVP cause of summer league

    It used to be that any big white perimeter player that came sling would be compared to Bird. Are we now entering a time where they all will get compared to Doncic, or is this just a premature overreaction on my part where I'm badly overrating the situation based on nothing but summer league basketball?

    Never seen him play

    But after watching everyone in the summer league I can understand why we drafted him

    Denim is the most talented player of the entire class

    His play style reminds me of Luka but not as aggressive

    He's easily the best passer of this class and his jumper looks way better than i anticipated

    You are basing your assessment of Flagg's ceiling on what exactly?

    Don't watch much college ball? Timme was I think a multiple time first team all-american (definitely once at least) at Gonzaga.

    He has low-post skills offensively for sure but he's not big enough to dominate down low, can't shoot well enough to be a stretch, and isn't a true NBA-level defender.

    I watched college ball the last two years because we had high picks but prior to that not at all. When we drafted Rui I hadn't heard of him lol.

    He should spell his f-in name like it's pronounced.

    Yeger Djemin

    I like his game though. The shot will come around, his form looks good.
