mustache eagle 2,402 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 My thoughts are if Thor signs it means we have a better chance with brown ... Thor is a definite 4. Browns family wants him at 3. Green is a 2. We may tell brown that Thor is our 4 and he’ll play the 3 ... could be the difference maker for brown? One can hope! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won’t have an idea until things are more firmed up with Kuminga whether he’s actually reclassifying or not. And we’re not gonna no more on that until the summer.

Rednilla 5,391 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I suppose if the consolation prize for losing Green is that we get Thor, things could definitely be worse. Not giving up on Jalen, just reading the tea leaves a little. And, not for nothing, but I would rather get Thor and Brown than to only get Green. Of course, getting all three would absolutely bring the roof down, but I'm not getting my hopes up for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may very well still lead and he's just been telling both staffs he's coming. We've still got Sharife in our corner and I think that's pretty big. None of the AU writers have backed off their picks to AU, so I'm still optimistic. Let's just let the next few days happen! If things are true about Thor, that is one big time get as he can play the 4 and 5 and play right away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to pick and those were my only options of get Jalen but not the other 2 or get Thor and GB but not Jalen?then I rather get just Jalen because I think he's the best player in this class and heads and shoulders better than anyone else. A backcourt of him and coop immediately puts us in heavy contention for best backcourt in the country.

I would be ecstatic if we got him to play 4/5, Brown to play 3/4, and Green to play 2/3 (I know he's only listed as a 2, but with his size he could play the 3 with Turbo at the 2 in our scheme pretty easily). And if we get any two out of three of them, I'll still be pretty ecstatic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a backcourt of Coop and Green gives us the best in the nation, period, and I certainly wouldn't be upset with just him. I just think that gaining Thor and Brown would be a bigger deal, both because Thor is unlikely to leave after only one season and because Turbo makes for a pretty good 2, as well, meaning we'd have more great pieces on the floor at once. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor & Brown will be dependent on the guards for their success to a good degree. Green will be in more control of his own success. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
