Only if he's the next all-time great shooter. Not Steph level, but Klay/Ray level while being a solid playmaker. I actually like the TJ McConnell with elite 3pt shooting as realistic comparison.

I think McCain starts getting looks at #10 with Utah. I believe that's his ceiling.

I think he's actually perfect for OKC's dribble-pass-shoot system so I agree with you, probably around 12-13. He was a natural replacement for Monk if Sacramento had not resigned him since he's from California and was a desperately needed shooter. I was going to say trade down with Chicago for him...

One player can't magically fix the entire team, but if Wemby is your PNR defense partner, it's way easier to recover back to your man. And it's not like elite defenders don't go over screens. You're making it sound like Castle wouldn't be a massive defensive upgrade over Tre or Sheppard. ...

well he is at least 6'10" and currently injured so this may work lol

Does Reed have All-Star potential? I don't want a spot up shooting specialist with a top 4 pick...

Good stuff. McCain is one of a handful of prospects (along with Smith, and even Carter) who I think we are just not in the right range for. With that said, if there is an opportunity to move out of 8 for a proven player, I’m really eying PHX and NO as opportunities to move up into for McCain and...

In case anyone was interested, the Dunc'd On podcast's scouting report on Sheppard had Duncan believing in Sheppard as an NBA point guard and Leroux more doubtful

Marshall on 4/64 might irreparably melt this site’s server

POA defense is only bad bc literally the whole roster is bad at it except Wemby. Vassell is out of position, KJ watches, Sochan over rotates, Champ watches too. Having Castle isn’t going to magically change POA defense like you think it will. The opposing team will set a screen on Castle and then...

It mostly told me things that we've rehashed, but the real eye-opening one for me was multiple execs and scouts' opinions of McCain. I don't think he succeeds as your sole initiator, but in a multiple ball-handler multiple initiator system like the spurs are trying to run, he works really really...

You brought the heat with these!!!

Are you concerned you could be replaced on ST by a mechanical AI parrot?

Agreed, that's tantalizing for CHA to open up their options for more flexibility and control of future assets. Honestly if I'm CHA I'm listening if SA calls. #6 to #8 is not a bad slide down For Hornets in exchange for brining your natural pick(s) back home and the unlocked command of your...

Someone pointed it out in a thread earlier but in the Dunc'd On Mock Off-season podcast they had the Spurs signing him to 4/64. In the postmortem talk they did concede that was an unlikely number, but it's weird if that was a forecast for an eventually real Marshall signing I don't even know...

Would you consider trading 4 for Charlotte to lift the lottery protection on the 25 pick? How about trading 8 for Charlotte to lift protections on the 25?

Yeah, but I doubt he exceeds that and I would think those teams will want him on a short term deal (2 or 1 + 1), to see if his 3 is for real (one good season, but to be fair it was a relatively small sample size of poor shooting before that). If not, he becomes valuable salary matching fodder in...

Someone else pointed out that they can also re-trade the pick, or trade their 2026 pick in advance if they get 2025 back.

Although who knows what CHA FO mindset is rn. New leadership may prioritize controlling their future or want the asset unlocked to make moves with for roster reconstruction. Mr Body makes a solid list of perks, scant as they may be, on what's in it for CHA. I'm just saying if I'm CHA I'm...

lol 3rd world Eurocup

Oh my gosh this is the dumbest out of everyone who has misunderstood...yes we WERE in third so I'm saying we should have lost more games to move up to 2...Washington had a better record than us most of the season yet wound up below us...anyways we'll see Wed if we give anything up to move up

So just teams that can pay more than the mle? Lots of big money expectations for a career back up who had 1 solid 3pt shooting season and is a career 31% shooter from 3. If he's worth more than the MLE you might as well up the money and try for Patrick Williams, who's a career 41% from 3, more...

It's true and 14 slots is a big target to hit, it's half the entire round. CHA doesn't even have to really tank, they could just drop the few games they needed to in order to land 1-14 and keep their FRP in 2025 which is probably more enticing to them vs. the two second round picks if they were...

was perfect tbh, well deserved, fuck them for bastardizing our language

No, I believe it, wholeheartedly. It's right there, and let me tell you, amb, Trump sittin' around that Florida "mansion" is echoing the same sentiments I just laid down, guaranteed...on a daily basis. He knows, amb. He knows everything. You fucked him over and continue to fuck him over...

Imo, it's different when someone like Sheppard is trying to develop his point guard skills compared to Pop randomly experimenting with Jeremy. And if we draft Sheppard, I'd be willing to bet he doesn't start right away. Other than playmaking, our two biggest issues were perimeter defense and...

hopefully for cheap and not over pay

I don't gamble. If you're not aware that you're going to lose in the end, that's up to you. Our societal embrace of sports betting is going to ruin a lot of people and bring us to numerous scandals. You may feel otherwise.
