Jr smith/Reddick hybrid. That's a really nice player at 4-6 range.

I watched him destroy the Oregon Ducks on his own in Long Beach. Kobe Bryant was at the game and spoke with him several times. I think he is the best shooter in the draft. I hope we pick Buddy he is a beast igonore this highlight footage in the gym. When he plays at a high level in the flow of a game he is a different player to watch.

I do think Hield will be special in the NBA. He has that it factor and people are underestimating his athleticism. Yes, he likely doesn't have the best defense as a rookie, but for the spark he offers on offense, he will be a very valuable player. I'd consider trading DLo for a top 5 pick and a solid big to get Hield myself. He is far more athletic and a better shooter then DLo right now. Just my personal opinion, though I do like DLo and wouldn't just trade him for a pick.

No doubt about it, if the opportunity comes to get Hield I would do it in a heart beat. This kid is going to be special in today's version of the NBA.

If Buddy was offered to the Lakers for Randle, Lou Williams and the #32. I think the Lakers should take that in a heart beat, he is going to be special.

Did you see what happened to Buddy when he played a good defensive team in Nova? He got shut down by younger kids. He had a handful of bad games when he played a hard nosed team, 2 against Nova, 2 against West Virginia, 1 against Wisconsin, and a few others against Iowa State, Kansas State, and Kansas.

He was way older than a lot of the kids he was going against.

You must be a family member or his agent.

Just kidding. I respect that you are all in with the young man. Just do not agree. Although I do think he has the potential to be a very good player especially as a shooter. I am not seeing that overall "special" in his game.

Certainly not seeing seeing that trade for Hield. JMO.

I would trade Randle straight up for Hield.

Lol I can say you've been consistent. Honestly, at this point I cant wait until this draft is over so we can just move on with our pick and just root for the Lakers and stop the division lol

What division? Why would the Lakers pick him at #2? Makes no sense whatsoever.

I actually think Hield would be a good pick for the immediate term. He blends in well with what the team could utilize in Luke's offense.

However I don't think the Lakers can pass on Ingrams potential or ceiling which if he reaches is higher

But I like BH a ton. Think he's one of the more certain picks. Will definitely have a role on a good NBA team.
