Better NBA career, Zach of Clingan?


I've found it interesting to listen to some of the pre-draft analysis of Zach and Clingan. First the story was that Clingan was the better athlete, then that he was a more polished offensive player, now it seems to be that he has a better understanding of the game and more upside as a younger player. I'm completely biased, but other than some level of proven outside shooting for Clingan, I just don't see it. I'm probably missing it as I certainly don't know better than the NBA guys, but I'd be interested to hear from the board why you think Clingan is the better pick.

Purdue football 54 Days to Purdue football: Luke Griffin

USATSI_21648828.jpg
Luke Griffin - Sr.
Chatsworth, GA (Missouri)
6'5", 330 pounds
Offensive Line
2024 Projection: Contributor

Things did not go as planned for Griffin last year in his first year as a transfer over from Missouri. He played in the first seven games as a regular reserve offensive lineman, but he was lost for the season against Ohio State. He now has one final chance in his COVID year to have a larger impact.

At Missouri he was a regular. He appeared in 33 games and made at least eight starts as one of their top linemen. He did not appear int he spring game this year as he was still recovering from his injury.

How he recovers will impact how much he plays this season. If healthy, Purdue has a starter caliber player ready to go at a moment's notice. Injuries have been a concern for him since HS, however.

Jefferson's First Draft of the Declaration of Independence...quite interesting and short read

This was in an email sent to me 20 minutes ago from an Engineer I used to work with. Those that have never been to Monticello might find this of interest? https://www.monticello.org/thomas-j...n/transcript-of-the-rough-of-the-declaration/

Happy 248th birthday to the USA!

Thomas Jefferson’s first draft of the Declaration of Independence contains the highlighted section below among the grievances against King George. It includes this insightful complaint. “Determined to keep open a market where MEN should be bought & sold, he has prostituted his negative for suppressing every legislative attempt to prohibit or to restrain this execrable commerce.” In other words, King George was benefitting from the British slave trade so much, he had thwarted every legislative attempt by colonists to outlaw it. The slave trade was eventually outlawed March 2, 1807 and became effective in 1808. Unfortunately, by then enough slaves had been imported to establish inter-generational slavery in the south. If you are wondering why this grievance isn’t in the final draft, it’s because South Carolina and Georgia rejected it. Imagine how different our nation’s history would have been if the Declaration of Independence had rejected slavery at the very inception of the United Stated.

He has waged cruel war against human nature itself, violating it's most sacred rights of life and liberty in the persons of a distant people who never offended him, captivating & carrying them into slavery in another hemisphere, or to incur miserable death in their transportation thither. This piratical warfare, the opprobrium of INFIDEL Powers, is the warfare of the CHRISTIAN king of Great Britain. Determined to keep open a market where MEN should be bought & sold, he has prostituted his negative for suppressing every legislative attempt to prohibit or to restrain this execrable commerce. And that this assemblage of horrors might want no fact of distinguished die, he is now exciting those very people to rise in arms among us, and to purchase that liberty of which he has deprived them, by murdering the people on whom he also obtruded them: thus paying off former crimes committed against the LIBERTIES of one people, with crimes which he urges them to commit against the LIVES of another.
