Who should the Sixers take with the third pick in the NBA Draft?
Yeah, so Ace Bailey is still third on my big board. I think he's probably the consent... I don't know if consensus might not be the right word. Yeah, in general, I think that's still the guy you're going to find at three. I think you will find a mixture of opinions in terms of some people will say Ace is definitely number three for... We don't have to say it this way anymore, but if 30 different teams, any team that landed number three would draft Ace Bailey. I don't know that that is the case for everybody, though. I think some people would have Vijay. Some people, you know who I think is a good riser in this range is Trey Johnson. I think he's done really well for himself late in the cycle here, getting later in the cycle.
You know, my guy, Sam, he likes con can nipple a lot. He's a little higher on him than I am. I just see Ace Bailey and still like this is what the NBA is looking for in terms of a wing with shot making some potential defense, all of that. So I'm still there at three. There's not many teams. I probably wouldn't take Ace Bailey at three. Obviously, it's Phillies. We know that now. And just to answer that question, I think. I think Philly should make this pick, whether it's ace or like trust your scouts, but make this pick. Do you want to go make a move for an established vet not having? And I'd be pissed if I did that. And then Joel and PG come back and they're injured again. And I missed out on getting a little bit younger with Tyrese and McCain and those guys.
So I'm making this pick. If I'm Daryl Morey, I don't know what they'll do.
What are the potential roles for Ace Bailey in the NBA?
Yeah, I kind of agree with that, especially, you know, for everything that's gone wrong with Philly, they've actually done a pretty good job drafting, you know, with Maxie McCain. So I kind of trust them, too. I want to ask you about Ace Bailey's potential role in the NBA, because there's some fans who view him as this high ceiling offensive star. Others see him. thinking his eventual role might look something more like Michael Porter Jr., do you think it would benefit his development to go to an established team like Philly, where he would be put in a smaller role initially, or would going to a bad team benefit him because he would get a more immediate opportunity to develop the rest of his offense?
Yeah, I actually think a team... There's some things with Philly that I've had people tell me, like, Bryce, I think you're missing some stuff here in terms of, you know, how processing and stuff like that and putting him in with that team. And that's a great point with the way they've drafted.
