Stephon Castle is an overrated non-shooter with a broken jump shot who benefitted from playing on a deep Connecticut team, and who knows whether his defense will translate. Also, he is such a great prospect that somebody will trade up to #3 to get him. This is the 1984 NBA draft.

I thought Boozers kid was the can't miss #1. Or is that 2026 draft?

Probably, but maybe could be a hedge against the Spurs preferred targets (I assume it's Risacher and Castle) going top 3. If that's the case, then Clingan is there at 4 and I would 100% go for extra assets than settle for whatever is there. And if Clingan was taken by Houston, then surely one of...

:lol did anyone watch his presser this morning? 1796561672003322119

Trading GG Jackson would be selling very high on a prospect who was probably top 10 talent wise, but dropped due to a shit attitude. Let some other team experience that shit.

whens the last time a slavic country won gold at olympics?

I don't think Rockets pick Castle at #3, but if they trade their pick then that team probably gets him. Spurs probably take one of Dillingham/Topic and one of Buzelis/Holland/Williams/Salaun in that scenario.

rack it. Prawk prawk. This should be added to the new Prawks.

He leaves. (Or claims as much)

Very possible, yes.

I believe you can put your house on Zach and Sarr going top 2. And I'm not vrey far from adding Castle as a surefire top 3. My prediction for the top 3 is the same as it's been a for a little while now and similar to Givony and Woo. Correction, their projection is the same as mine :D 1....

It means Memphis keeps their '26 pick unless it's the worst of the bunch in which case they jump to 3rd best.

I'd hate to give Atlanta 4+8 for 1 though, that's the range they'd be most dangerous in. Atlanta coming away with something like Castle & Clingan (in some order) is probably much more favorable for their short term future than Sarr would be, and that doesn't bode well for the outlook of the pick...

Yeah, as per usual one or two great players will be picked in late lottery or even early 20s. Wouldn't surprise me if for example Devin Carter turns out to be the best guard in the draft.

If my top targets are gone then I probably do that deal. If my target is there then I don't, but I might try and package KJ to Portland for Brogdon + 7 or maybe even 14 depending on who's still on the board there.

Re Knecht he is a bigger version of Branham with a reliable 3 PT shot as well as a same sized clear upgrade on Keldon Johnson. He replaces two players, including our best bench player, so Knecht certainly needs to get strong consideration in relation to pick 4, as far as whether to take Knecht at...

Depends a lot on how the board shapes up. Personally, my 2 targets at 4 are Risacher and Castle. If both of them are projected to go top 3, I might consider moving up if the price is reasonable (say, future lottery protected first a few years down the road). If those 2 are gone, I'd definitely...

That 12-22 area looks like the most interesting part of the draft as far as value goes, at least in this mock.

Portland owes a 1st round pick to Chicago protected for 1-14 from 2025 through 2028. Basically can't trade their own first round pick until 2030. Except they get picks in 2029. I think this means they can trade their own? I'm not clear on how thatworks.

You fuckin' 'eh.

While I’m not so much against Castle’s game, I’d rather see the Spurs pick up a mid career point guard to help out this year. Draft the best couple versatile forwards available. Either way it’s gonna be wait and see how they pan out.

Because he made President, on (our) time, v.

(It's) because he made President on their time.

:lmao:lmao:lmao I'm a trend setter. I set trends.

I wasn't really thinking existing players, tbh. That gets pretty complicated, like, just for example if the Spurs wanted Dyson Daniels or Jordan Hawkins, I think they're worth more than jumping five spots, so the Spurs would have to include more. But then jumping those spots is valuable... ...

Ja, Bane, JJJ and Smart should be off limits, I haven't seen much of their G-league roster this season to know who's valuable. I don't think they'd be willing to trade that GG Jackson kid. Blazers don't really have anyone Spurs would want except maybe Brogdon, but he's not worth trading down....

Then he’s playing against the BEST youth league players that feed into the second best league in the world. Still not chumps.

:lmao There is always a Trump quote.
