You also don’t know if those 3 teams will be making those 3 picks.

Yes sir right away. Please go get some pussy.

The draft is always a risk, of course. I like Castle, a LOT. I feel his dog qualities will propel him past other players year after year. That intangible is what makes a great player. There's enough to work with there between a Marcus Smart floor and a possible Butler/DeRozan ceiling. Just...

Na ill finally pay that child support I owe your mom lmao

Zak Risacher scouting reporter: He's no Lebron. As a SF he's a terrible PG. Can't penetrate and can't pass the ball. Zak Risacher agent: Yeah, but as a SF he has good size. He can shot. And defend. And as as SF he can play... SF. Zak Risacher scouting reporter: Neh. He's no Lebron. Zak...

The floor being the only guard DPOY since Gary Payton is setting expectations way too high for the poor fella.

People need to stop talking about teams 5-7 not taking a point guard because those rosters are not static and we don’t know if they’re willing to simply take BPA in a so-called weaker draft. Who’s to say the Pistons won’t have a trade lined up to deal Ivey for a wing and like how Dilly pairs with...

I would be stunned if Castle is out of the league after his rookie contract. He's just going to provide too much utility/defense to not constantly be picked up as a bench guy as a worst result. He's going to keep playing in this league for a while, imo, even if he's not a star.

I don't think this draft is as poor as advertised, to be honest. Last year, minus Wemby, might have been more questionable than advertised. Even if not, it got questionable pretty quickly after pick #5. My philosophy is probably this: we have our super-duper-franchise-king. It's astounding how...

Rumors are that the Nets will get their own #3 pick back as part of a Bridges trade after all. Otherwise, I don't see anyone trading all the way up for the #3. A team in the lottery could try to leapfrog Detroit, SAS, etc., if they see someone they want. As for who BKN would take, it's the same...

You mean he's going to be given wide open 3 PT shots? Sold! San Antonio Spurs Interested in Drafting UConn Star (msn.com)

I think they draft that Primo 2.0 kid before Castle. I don't see where the fit is.

let's face it, irving has been shit the entire series. Made a decent amount of shots, but has been a net negative more often than not. Especially, and that was true against the clippers as well, whenever he is the primary ballhandler, bad things happen.

Go to the political forum.

They’re not pulling an All Star with even the first pick in this draft, let alone #3.

No, son, no. It's vengeance; pure & unadulterated. You brought this on yourself and have it coming. Let us proceed...

Yeah, I don't see that at all. He's too good of a defender and has great intangibles. The shooting is a little shaky so I get the concern there especially since the Spurs can't shoot already but his form isn't broken and I believe he can improve his shot much like Leonard did.

The Venn Diagram of posters who are out on Topic and/or Castle (actual basketball players) because of their 3 ball and posters who are still enthused about the Thompson bricklaying twins who shot.138 and .186 when faced with actual NBA competition is a circle.

Prime Nono tbh. I like both Van Gundy bros tbh...

I'm thinking Marcus Smart could be one of the best case scenarios. The floor is, without a doubt, being out of the league before his rookie contract runs out, tbh.

It's a high school mixtape so take with a giant grain of salt but his shot looks so much smoother here than at UCONN tbh. I don't know if he'll ever be a decent 3pt shooter but I think there's a hope for a Derozan like midrange J.

Dillingham's shooting is a lot more "translatable" than Castle's defense. There will always be open looks to be had in the NBA. Being able to defend on the NBA as well as you did in college is a bigger challenge than knocking down open shots. So you have a problem with 27% from NBA 3pt line...

Nope I like Anthony Black,and am one of his few supporters here, but the link above shows a similar physical profile, and the green dots are split about evenly.

Saying that Black would go #1 is more an argument for dumping the #4 and #8 pick for whatever you can get and punting until 2025 than it is an argument for Sheppard.

I think the floor for Castle is a Marcus Smart type of player but I do think his shooting will improve and I do like the Jimmy Butler comp if he can put it all together. Just not sure there is that many other guys who have that type of upside.

Black shot 30% at Arkansas, and improved his shot in the NBA. Imagine that. Not a real pretty form, either.

Yeah, this be@ner's life absolutely sucks to lash out this badly online :lol Quadruple posting and having a melt down before our eyes. This is a cry for help. If the mavs go all the way, put that money towards some therapy tbh.

So, a much better shooter than Castle. In fact, a much better prospect all around. Black in this year's draft might even go #1. Still, the chances of Black ever becoming a rotation piece are 50/50, at best. The chances of him becoming a top 5 player in a team are even lower. Those are the same odds...

The Spurs should draft a player who is good at both shooting and defense, and is immediately ready to contribute, and should not allow the lack of existence of such a player in this draft to stop them. If they are so smart, they should be able to conjure a player into existence.

Crazy at how much love Anthony Black had around here a year ago at this time and now everyone is down on him. I strongly suspect this is the case because Black doesn't play for the Spurs and he had a pretty normal rookie campaign that came with some bumps and bruises. If Black played for the...
