Low first rounder with a distinct risk of falling into the second is same overall profile of Philon last year.
Hope for the same outcome.

Watching some Fielder highlights, he is definitely a 4 and we are in trouble if hes having to play the 5. He doesn't really play above the rim, and is going to struggle with more athletic bigs. Several of his "highlights" from this past season were him having to take tough 2s in traffic where he couldnt create space, as well as dunks where he had to regather under the rim to get up after a pass or rebound. I still think hes a great get and perfect for the system, but hes definitely a 4 or maybe even a big 3 in certain situations. Certainly better than getting Freeman who loves shooting long contested 2s while shooting 33% and also seems like a headcase. edit: Just calling what I see. I have seen a lot of comments comparing him to Grant. But he's a completely different player. Less athletic, doesnt have that kind of handle, but has a significantly better shooting stroke imo. He can shoot it from several feet behind the 3 point line too. I do think he has potential as a defender, hes willing, and moves laterally fairly well. Question will be if his lack of ups hurts his rebounding.
You aren't wrong no matter how unpopular it is. We need Garrison or Fleming to step up big at the 5 and let Fielder hold down the 4. It's plausible. Grant was a lot more special player than I think a lot of people are willing to concede or possibly understand.

Ewin is in the portal. Seems like he would have been a decent fit. Too bad he didn’t enter earlier.

Grant Nelson has a decent chance of making an nba roster after spending his last season here and first year in the developmental league(s) working on his shot form.

Seemed like most nba experts were surprised the nets didn't renew him after his 10 day contract

Is this Murphy saying we're done adding guys? Because we need at least one more guard. Badly.

This is Preston Murphy’s long con to make PM Jr the starting point
