2024 NBA Draft Thread

[Mr. Body]

Kentucky has a Coatian center/pf who just become available who might suddenly appear in the lottery.

[Biggems]

Tankathon has him at #24. That’s a pretty reputable mock.

wow, he moved up? He was late in the 2nd round a week or so ago.

dilliham with a terrible game......And wagner with a good game

Yep, I really want us to draft Ivisic with our second round pick he has a lot of potential and he might not mind being stashed for one year.

Dillingham doesn't excel in enough other areas if his shooting goes cold. I don't like his size either.

He's not going second round.

how good is he bro

[Mr. Body]

how good is he bro

Why does he have to come out this year?

[Dejounte]

If Spurs Keep Their Picks, I’d Prefer Right Now:

Collier & Salaun

Collier/ Wesley
Vassell/ Backup Wing
Champ/ Cissoko
Sochan/ Salaun
Wemby/ Barlow/ Bassey

Package Collins, Jones, Branham for veteran help

[Mr. Body]

Why on earth do you want Collier

[Dejounte]

Zaccharie Risacher Looks Like Another Branham Style Pick. He Doesn’t Have The Requisite Physical Abilities To Be The Perimeter Defender This Team Needs. The Lateral Agility Is Not There And Most Of His Defensive Impact Comes From Weakside Help And Rim Protection. It’s As If People Are Making The Same Mistake When They Thought Jabari Smith Would Be A Small Forward In The NBA, Or Misclassifying Wemby As A Small Forward In The NBA (As In Wemby Playing With Two Bigs)…

How tall is he? I keep hearing people say his size is bad but when I look it up I see him anywhere from 6’1 to 6’3 which is Tony Parker to Steve Nash height. It’s not that small.

Have you actually watched him? He's really small.

Why on earth do you want Collier

Collier Can Get To Any Spot He Wants On The Court With His Outstanding Footwork And Has A Polished Array Of Offensive Moves. These Are Qualities That Are Uncommon To Find In Any Player No Matter How Inefficient Collier Is Right Now. A Lot Of The Other Point Guards Compare To Tre Jones… What Does That Mean? We Have To Ask Ourselves What Tre Jones Is And What Makes Us Believe We Still Need A Starting Point Guard Despite Tre Being The Type Of Point Guard Everybody Has Wanted To Be The Starter This Season. The Answer Is He Has Basic-Level “Packages” In Nearly Every Aspect Of His Game: Basic Passes, Basic Shot Creation (Mostly Consisting Of Floaters And Layups). His Skillset Is Predictable. What You Need To Draft When You’re Drafting That High Is Unpredictability And Something That Is Just Not Basic (In The Way They Play On The Court). People Have This Idea That The Spurs Can Keep Drafting Players Who “Play The Right Way” And Learn To Use That As A Launching Pad To S om. Most Of Those Player Types Are Often Tre Jones Than Kawhi Leonard. Murray Is An Example Of Chaos That Needed To Be Tamed, And Collier Is Similar To That But With Possibly More Talent.

[Dejounte]

Ha! I Made That Comparison Without Looking It Up And It Turns Out They Actually Have Similar Stats In College:

IDK it's either Dilly or Shephard if I'm taking a PG. Collier has been disappointing, Topic fattened up on weak compe ion but went cold when playing Euroleague, and Castle shoots 20% from the college three despite not being guarded there. If we still had Chip here I'd be all over Castle since he could probably make him a 30% shooter from the three after seeing how he fixed Kawhi's shot but without Engelland he's a no go.

I can't read this . Collier is really bad. And he and Murray are nothing alike.

I think Topic is the only actual PG with a lottery grade. I'm not sure Castle is a point guard. Dillingham and Reed have PG size but not sure they are either.

Dejounte Is A Top Five Pick In His Class In A Re-Draft And His Numbers In College Compare Well With Collier’s “Underwhelming” College Season So Far.

Man you got to actually watch these players. They are nothing close to each other at all.

Topic has gotta show something in Euroleague. Not at all impressed by what he was doing in the ABA.

[Mr. Body]

He's really good at getting to the basket and he's a really good passer. Whether or not that translates, it still stands -- he's the only real point in this draft worth a lottery pick. I definitely think Reed and Dilly can play as a 1 but they aren't pure points.
