TBH, outside of Sarr and Risacher, I could see any other player dropping to 8 (and those two guys have higher floors based mostly on hype at this point). That's the thing about this draft. Clingan could go anywhere from #1 - 9. Topic realistically could go #2 - 10/11. I see Dilly with the same...

:toast Magnetic field interacting with plasma. Physical phenomena that are striking, nothing better I tell yas.

I'm involved in a tournament on 8BP that lasts till 3AM Wednesday. I ain't goin' nowhere cept this desk aside from the john till then.

Totally agree with Risacher and Dillingham. That would be the ideal picks. And neither taking top 3 money? Perfect situation.

https://www.si.com/nba/draft/newsfeed/2024-nba-draft-why-g-league-ignites-ron-holland-is-early-favorite-to-go-no-1 Old article but multiple wing options left at 8. The Wild card for me is Castle, seems like we can use a bigger SF than him otherwise when it’s PG-Vassel-where does Castle fit in...

Absolutely. And all it took was an outsider to make President. That was it, Ft. Pitt.

Do we give props to modern day phys rehab or to PEDs? Either way i also thought he was flocked. We got a brand new series.

I actually like Toppin and like I said think he could be a RFA target, but I don't think he can play starting PF. He's an anemic rebounder. His offensive game is better than Sochan's, and would love for him to come in and give Jeremy real competition but he his rebounding is pathetic. Not sure how...

Hope so

Castle seems like a no-brainer pick to get some defense in Charlotte as well as someone who can play some spot PG when LaMelo is hurt. Damn if the Wizards take Topic might have a shot at Risashcer at 4. prayingdog.gif

I think so. Thompson is what makes it work since he has the size and athleticism to play the SF defensively so once he replaces FVV I think Thompson + Sheppard + Green + Smith + Sengun can be a pretty strong lineup.

Getting? It's there. Democracy is long gone. Supreme Court entertaining whether or not a pReZidenT has total immunity. :lol I'd guestimate 95% of Congress and House is compromised.

then you should try cooling off, its all good man, just talking sports and joking. no need to take things so personally.

Combine going to be interesting... "My advantage is that I have everything over him.” 1772725548193579021

Looks like Parrot Team 4 pulled 18 hr shifts thru the weekend. Prawk prawk :toast

Vecenie’s report is that Matas is a high character/hard worker. I think he comes from a ball family, so I don’t share the Samanic concerns

Obi's 18th and 12th in scoring / rebounds per minute in 2024 playoffs. :toast Doing 60% fgs with 54% on threes vs NYK. But ya he's not gonna keep that pace up. :lol Not sure why he gets limited to 20 minutes but assume Jim Carrey knows what he's doing.

Matas Buzelis scares me, gives me Samanic PTSD. I’d like to be wrong about him but of all the guys in the 1-8 range he would take the most convincing for me to jump on board with.

For me: just draft that fastbreak engines, in any order: Sheppard and Holland, add also Dunn and Spurs will play fast with thousand of steals.

I honestly thought Murray was gonna be too injured to be a factor. Also lol Towns

ATL: Sarr WAS: Topic HOU: ZR SAS: Matas DET: Reed CHA: Castle POR: Cody or Holland SAS: Dilly Figuring out what Houston does is the biggest question mark. Following that, whether DET/CHA/POR trade out and whether WAS opts for a pg or a big (Clingan) to fill in for the space left by...

If the Spurs don't factor in the likelihood of each player being available at each pick, then they'd be idiots. They don't strike me as such, so I'm going to guess their reasoning is a bit more nuanced than that.

You trippin!

Gordon with the game of his life. Still think Minnesota has to keep daring him to shoot for the rest of the series.

Wouldn't be shocked if Washington especially takes a big swing on Matas. In fact I think the top 2 most likely targets by Washington may actually be him and Topic, both are big swings but their size and skill set could make them high ceiling guys, provided their shot comes around.

The pups showed their immaturity during that stretch. They played well up to then, relying so much on their 3pt shooting to close the gap, but then just went full retard. Had AE scored 2 vs turning it over, it's an 8 point game at the half, vs a 15 point game.

Guards usually take longer to produce, and Ivey statistically isn't far behind Keldon now. Keldon might have met his peak. I'm not sure if Keldon would improve anymore. Even with a reduced usage rate and coming off the bench, he didn't increase his accuracy. I think at worse, Ivey would reach 23/24...

Absolutely. I see a lot of guys on here clamoring for guys that are good defenders. More than anything you need smart players who can be taught to play good team defense. That's more important than this league now than individual defenders. The Spurs have Wemby. They need good shooters and...
