I dont think he goes top 5. Monk might fall right into the Sixers laps in that 5-7 range.
If Celtics get the #1 pick do they draft Fultz or trade down?

They are taking Fultz and not thinking twice. Will then trade Avery Bradley to open up the minutes for him.

Man I'm weary on these small 2 guards like Monk ever since my favorite player of all time Dajuan Wagner didn't work out in the NBA. I still remember telling everybody Wagner was going to be the GOAT and better than MJ smh made me look like a fool

Wagner didn't work out because he had serious internal health issues, he was playing his best ball before they got discovered.
Not really accurate comparison.

I kinda like that Ben Gordon comp for Monk although I do think BG got to the rack a little more when he was at UConn...

Take your L for the silly post man. It's ok.Looks like all the draft nerds and make believe gms are on their high horse this am. Just itching to prove they sit on their *** in front of a TV and watch more than the next man, living vicariously thru **** vitale. I said somewhat, reminds ME, of harden's game. So smd
Yea plus BG was cold off the dribble... 1 on 1 with the live dribble BG was a nightmare.

I just don't understand how one learns to shoot with form like Lonzo has...Just doesn't make sense to me.

Really loving how this draft is shaping up.
Fultz, Ball, Dennis, Jackson, Markannen, Frank, Issac, Fox, Monk, Bridges.
Obviously I get hyped about every draft but this one actually feels warranted.

Man i think Malik Monk at best is 6th Man Of The Yr JR Smith but a slightly better defender
I dont think dude is gon be a star. His shot selection is dumb

Nah Monk's fundamentals and off ball movement are too good for him to be JR. He's not an idiot like him either.
At worst he's KCP...at best he's probably what Devin Booker is looking like right now
Although, I loved Booker at Kentucky and I like Monk even more than him.

If JR Smith is your floor, that is an extremely high floor.

Dennis is the 2nd best guard in the draft...kid has all the tools, ball skill wise.

Ben Mclemore is a much more reasonable floor for Monk.
For Monk to become JR Smith, he would still have to develop things, like a handle, and ability to pass.

Definitely.
Could be A LOT worse.
JR has more length and might have been more athletic at the same stage but wasn't as good a shooter as Monk is.

Nah dog
Kid dropped 47 god damn points on UNC...he is not McLemore at all.
I can definitely see the Lou Will comparison
JR Smith ability to pass?? JR averages 2.2 assists per game for his career and sports a 1.2 APG average this year and has had 6 seasons of below 2 APG
JR Smith handle?? He's a catch and shoot from anywhere on the court player, JR has never had much of a handle at all.

Come on bro, JR smith definitely has a better handle than Monk. He's probably one of the best ISO scorers in the league. That's pretty much undebatable. JR is actually a very talented player, he's just dumb as rocks.
A high IQ JR smith would probably be considered the GOAT

Jr is a credible secondary ball handler and can run a pick and roll every now and then.
