Side note - I think we can fully put to rest the far-flung fever dream of Luka demanding out of Dallas and specifically requesting to be traded to the Spurs. Actual, real people wanted to base an entire long-term roster construction philosophy around this fantasy.

One thing I love about this draft is that I can look at my ranking (which obviously make sense to me, because I made it), and then look at yours and say "yeah - this makes sense to me". This draft is a lot of fun in that regard in that there are fine differences at the margins and reasonable,...

Oh, I agree with that 100%. There were good reason both were cut loose. I was just discussing semantics of the term bust, and only regarding Samanic.

his panic moves would be following through on the student debt promise he made... and probably too late to save face with gaza, he'd probably need to off netanyahoo himself. Stopping the railroad union strike probably killed off his appeal to workers. Really gonna need all the white libs to show...

To be fair it's got to be pretty deflating for a woman to date a Trump. Those were the available recent photos. Perhaps some pre Trump photos could be found.

It looks logical to me. Here's where mine currently stands. I rank the top 30 in tiers and then have my Spurs board at the bottom using the Tiers as a guide and then Spurs fit/need within those Tiers to round out my Spurs top 10. 2024 NBA Draft Board Tier 1: 1. Zaccharie Risacher 2. ...

Well, not Gavin’s leftover’s.

Lunden? or Kimberly?

I can see your logic, the draft is a crapshoot. Its just that the spurs had such a reputation for drafting decent players even in the mid twenty's to the end of the first round and beyond. Guys like Slo Mo, Murray, Derrick white, Keldon are valuable players still. Even inconsistent Lonnie Walker...

Lunden? Or Kimberly?

Got to head to Twitter for that. Eric Zhang is your man.

I had never heard of this guy untill today. 2JjpUBe73N0?si=3FZMyeNUWFi1VZVK He seems like everything we are looking for. A tall, 3 level scorer, PG that can create for himself and others. Why isn't he mentioned more as a lottery pick? Has anyone seen this guy play?

I'll be the first to admit that my opinions are based on reading scouting reports and watching highlights... and for this reason my personal board/opinions aren't worth much (and I recognize as much). Kentucky is the only team I saw a few full games of. But, since no one asked, this is my...

It wasn’t scamming. Not going to entertain this low IQ nonsense further.

Seems like it. If there are no trades, I see the draft panning out this way, so far: 1-Atl: Sarr. 2-Was: Risacher. 3-Hou: Sheppard. 4-SAS: Castle. 5-Det: Buzelis. 6-Cha: Clingan/Williams/Holland/Knecht (maaaaybe Topic or Dillingham) 7-Por: Williams/Holland/Knecht/Salaun (definitely not a...

I'm in the same boat here. The only thing that leans me to Garland is you know what he brings to the team, Dilly COULD be Garland. So I guess it'll really depend on if the FO would rather gamble with the money or the draft pick. I guess realistically the safer bet would be drafting dillingham. If...

As I said, he's a low IQ player, but I wouldn't take anything that happened over the past few months again him. It's amazing that he even decided to play considering all the awful stuff happening with his family. Everyone would be affected. When KD asked for a trade from Brooklyn, I thought...

"Throw it down bigman!!!!!"

If you go back and watch the 17 points in 3 minutes barrage by Wemby, it was mainly fueled by, missed wide open 3s from MPJ. I hate his health history, and the fact that once the ball touches him, it never comes out again. There was a video out a year or two ago with just Denver teammates...

That’s a re-tweet of a guy who thought Houston won last years draft with Amen and Cam. Did either of them win ROTY? First team All D? Get All NBA votes? I think we know who won last years draft.

You are forgetting the most important need in "best archetypes": shooting.

Yes, I see that last year isn't fully guaranteed. I think I'd still rather keep those funds clean in case a real possibility comes thru, but I guess his contract could be used for that, too. Overall, I'd want assets to absorb his contract more than anything and I'm not sure that's happening.

We’re going to have to disagree on this, because I don’t believe that a “reach” is even possible at 19, and I don’t believe in busts at that slot, either,since so many back half first rounders don’t get to their second contracts. It’s kind of the expected outcome.

I really hope Risacher is available at 4, that would simplify things a lot for PATFO's drafting process. Just get the only 6'9" ish forward that can shoot at 4, and then let the others decide which guard you are gonna take at 8 (Sheppard, Dillingham, Castle or Topic).

EVERYONE on the UConn squad was a PG, even Clingan. Part of that system is reading and reacting. If there’s a pin down screen, and the defender cheats over it, even the center has to react to the back cut, and hit the cutter. The fact that you took time to type that statement makes me think you...

I'd rather draft a Patty Mills than a Blake Wesley, tbh. At least the former wouldn't be a complete waste of a lottery pick, tbh.

I saw this thread and thought maybe op ate late night at Taco Bell or something

I'll bet Dillingham scores more than 20 ppg at some point in his career. Look at how he stacks up to other Kentucky guards of similar stature: https://www.tankathon.com/players/compare?players=rob-dillingham--tyrese-maxey--immanuel-quickley--de-aaron-fox--malik-monk Fox and Maxey score well...
