Tre weighed in at 178 at the draft combine.

I don't really want to talk any crap about Jokic as he's a great player, but I wonder how he would have went against the 2005 Detroit Pistons frontline that Tim had to take on that series with two injured ankles throughout that playoff run. I still think Game 7 was an amazing show of leadership and...

There has never been a point in time where Jokic has been in the same galaxy as Timmy. Timmy will end up having more all nba 1st team selections than Jokic will have all nba selections period :rollin

Hell, it was common to hear that Scoot Henderson was a generational talent for a long time, so good that he'd easily go number 1 in any other draft. People won't admit saying so, but they did. Frontrunning is very common among fans and professionals alike. IMO, the high school ranking system is...

That rebound total is actually quite encouraging though. What is the game like in France in terms of the physicality on the boards? If I remember correctly, Wemby was a sub 10rpg player for Mets92, right? He obviously turned that into 10.6 rpg his rookie year. If Risacher is a reliable rebounder,...

This is exactly my thinking. I would still be very happy with one or both of Risacher and Dilly overall, but I’m very intrigued and scared about a Castle/Holland pairing.

Quite a quiet game from Risacher today with 6 points and 11 rebounds in 25 minutes. Next for his team is the semi final against Monaco, who is obviously the heavy favorite.

Amen and Dillingham could work really well. They can both handle the ball, Amen covers for defensive shortcomings, and Dillingham can get lots of reps on offense. The team has managed to cover for Sengun as it is. Thompson has been more effective as more of a PF in small ball situations. They can...

He was impressive in that all-stars game where Flagg, Bailey, etc. all played in.

The voting tally for the all-rookie teams just came out. The most interesting part of the result is that it serves as an early judge of peoples’ pre-draft opinions and analyses, from which we can draw useful lessons for this current draft cycle. For instance, the inclusions of Lively and Jackson...

That's why I posted the Traore clip, he's playing real basketball.

Seen multiple Rockets reporters say on Twitter that the their Front Office are bullish over Amen being their long-term PG of the future. That would probably negate them taking Dilly if true. But if they see him as more of a wing like they did this season, then suddenly PG becomes a much bigger need...

The most interesting part of this result is that it serves as an early judge of peoples’ pre-draft opinions and analyses, from which we can draw useful lessons that we can then apply to this current draft cycle. For instance, the inclusions of Lively and Jackson are noteworthy. These were two...

I think Dillingham makes a lot more sense for Houston that we originally gave credit for. If Amen is a wing, then Dilly would be a very nice fit behind FVV for a year before taking the reigns.

Media creatures are who make the selection?

Watching the way Minnesota has brought defensive to the table this year and the crackdown on foul hunting gives me some thought as to a rebalancing of the game moving forward and whether defense will make it's long awaited return. If it does, I continue to be intrigued by the idea of Castle and...

Seen 2 different mocks that were released today that have Dillingham going #3 to Houston. Including this one, that has Clingan going 2 and the Spurs taking Risacher at 4. https://collegesportswire.usatoday.com/lists/2024-nba-mock-draft-lottery-combine-college-basketball/

I think that happened (all star) before his insane dominate stretch….2nd half of the season he went nuts and getting all defense and 2nd in DPOY might carry enough weight combined with his outburst 2H with assists and scoring?

he wasnt an all star which is ~top 24 so making top 15 seems unlikely

Unfortunately Collins contract kind of locks up the ability to do a lot at the position, at least until such time he is traded (but I wouldn't look to pay significant assets to trade him at this point). Bassey, if he can stay healthy, is an ideal fit both on the court and contract wise.

I think if you replace Dillingham with Sheppard, thatś probably a very close scenario to what the Spurs FO would actually go for. Targets at 4 are probably Risacher and then Castle. One of them is very likely available there. Then at 8 I'd expect them to go with Castle if available, or otherwise...

Dilly looks like the best natural basketball talent. He will slice and dice up opposing defenses, even nba ones. Kyrie, Iverson, Isiah Thomas (the little one). He will be an amazing offensive force and probably the perfect complement to Wemby.

Lots of intriguing talent... but I also want to see some of these guys actually play. Guys like Collier, Justin Edwards, DJ Wagner and Aaron Bradshaw were all once 99 rated recruits too. (Flagg and Ace got 100 ratings, which no one in this year's class got). ...

Wednesday for All-NBA, tomorrow for All-Defense Edit: sorry, didn't see someone else had already responded.

Podz and Jaime beat out the vaunted Thompsons

:hungry:

It was rhetorical lol - I was saying I think Wemby has a decent shot at all nba and I dont get the concern at the moment. ROY, first team all rookie and finished 2nd in DPOY and will be all defense too? Seems like he has a strong case for all nba imo

No. They announce the all-defensive team tomorrow. Then on Wednesday they announce the all-NBA teams.

True, stats don’t lie. https://www.espn.com/nba/team/stats/_/name/sa/san-antonio-spurs When Sochan and Johnson rebound average is higher than Collins and Mamu, there is a problem. Through trade or draft, Spurs need serviceable centers to help backup Wemby.

Yet when Trump announced tariffs you called him everything but a White man.
