I'm not surprised if that's true about Dillingham. I think he's going to shred workouts. I wouldn't even be surprised if the supposed Wright grimace during the lottery was due to fear Washington or the Rockets take him first. Dillingham on the Rockets would be a horror show for us.

Yeah, I think if Risacher is present at 4, there's no way the Spurs can pass, if as much to please Wemby as anything (if he's genuine about liking him). He's probably going to be fine, but we're not talking a whole lot of upside here. If he can actually defend, that changes things, but his metrics...

1. Sarr - ATL 2. Topic - WAS 3. Risacher - HOU 4. Dillingham - SAT 5. Buzelis - DET 6. Sheppard - CHA 7. Clingan - POR 8. Holland - SAT 9. Castle - MEM 10. Collier - UT

Some of my thoughts on Williams are still impacted by my annoyance at the whole "He's gonna be a GOD because he has a BROTHER" narrative. To be much more fair to him, I think he's late lottery in a normal draft and that's not bad for this one. He moves smoothly, knows what to do on the court. If...

dallas had a size advantage over OKC and dominated them on the offensive glass. wont have that luxury against minnesota. they'll have to adjust, but Luka seems defense-proof, generally. we'll see

copy pasta?

5 rings is an impossible as for any al-time great. There's only been 5 all-time players to do it since the merger. Kareem, Magic, Jordan, Kobe, and Tim. That's the list. So no Jokic will not catch him in titles. However, I believe that he will be considered the greatest offensive bigman to ever...

IDK, part of me agrees but if Brunson and the Knicks had Wemby, they're still playing.

Can the Spurs bide time and pick up a rotation piece for a year by acquiring Bruce Brown from the Raptors for a couple future second round picks? Not the sexy trade for a full-time PG, but is a nice veteran on an expiring that could be moved at the deadline if needed

Fuck the Mavs

It would be nice if these last 3 series are watchable but I’m not holding my breath.

Allowing immigration in France means multicultural wealth. (All these players are models not only of integration but also of the vivacity of the French multi-ethnic model despite the far-right outbursts and the constant harassment that certain racialized populations receive from institutions....

The difference in depth between these teams is astonishing, and shows just how much Jokic carries his team. Outside of Nikola, there are three guys with a positive BPM, and one is Porter Jr, who's BPM is +0.1, so he's really more of a net neutral player. Minnesota has 8 players (!) with positive...

Dame Lillard...

Cody Williams' stock is mostly based on potential rather than actual production, every time I watched him play I came away really underwhelmed. However, given how flat this draft is, the value of wings and shooting in the modern game, the question marks of his competition and the needs of teams...

If you ignore Keldon, who could immediately start for them and be a fitting piece around Brandon Melo and Mark, sure. Maybe you're right and Keldon at 24 yrs old isn't worth moving down two spots in this draft and moving the protections from 14 to 8 in for next years draft pick.

It's tough to judge Williams post-injuries. He wasn't the same player and the team dynamic changed while he was out. I think it was a tough spot for a young player, but I respect that he tried to fit in when he returned, arguably to the detriment of his draft stock . As I look at the top-ish of...

You want us to move up, and for Charlotte to pay US to move down? That’s an interesting, if unrealistic take.

So you don't believe it and then use the graph to blame China and India?

It was his last playoff game, btw. His team lost against ASVEL. Next step for him: French National Team (some would like to see him taking one of the 12 places for the Olympics instead of some NBA cut point guards^^).

Ugh Saturday and Sunday forecast to be the first 100 degree days a month earlier than normal

Dallas made Rudy Gobert a non-factor in the playoffs 2 years ago and typically has a good game plan against centers. I like their chances to make Edwards work for every inch, but they might also take their lumps from him and try to keep the supporting cast at bay. Naz Reid always gives Dallas...

Traore Vassell Risacher Sochan Wemby

Hopefully NBC or ESPN brings Kevin Harlan on. I think NBC can probably put together a decent studio team on their own without poaching from Inside the NBA, but hopefully ESPN will offer Chuck/Kenny/Shaq the entire coffer.

ESPN is going out of their way to make a highlight reel every time something bad happens to her. That short term gets shorter all the time.

Keldon and 8 to Charlotte for 6 and lightening the protections in the 2025 1st round pick to top 8 protected. If it doesn't convey then top 8 protected first in '26. If not '26, then top 8 protected in 27. If not 27, then two second-round picks in 28 and 29.

I'm just gonna assume he likes me then.

They would be amazing on defense together but they wont fit on offense. That said if Sarr somehow fell to the 4th pick they should just swing for the fences on him. Its a bad class with no clear cut best talents.

I tally 'em, I don't qualify 'em, ever. It's my religion.
