2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

We are moving up from 9 to 6 and 16 to 11 we are going to have to give up a lot if we wanted to do that.

Exactly my thoughts

If they really don't want the 6th pick then we could do the 9th and a future first for the 6th OR the 16 and the laker's unprotected for the 6th.

16 and a future first doesn’t seem like enough.

If Cam and Jarace are both gone you run to the podium to take Amen at 6.

Ya, im not a fan of the twins

Wow!! Think Ja at 6-7 what’s not to like

Eh, I get Hendricks or Walker plus one of the top shelf points? I'm pretty happy.

Ya but we might get hendricks and a top shelf point without making any moves.

If we are giving up a future wolves/cavs pick AND the lakers pick then i want walker or cam. In my post i said walker and cam might both be gone and we reach to take hendricks who we might have got at 9 and kept 2 future firsts instead of trading them away.

Think harold miner or greald green
They seem like athletes first and basketball players second.

From Reddit
(21:00) CBS Sports’s Gary Parrish reported today that a prospect that “everyone has in the 1st round” had a workout so bad he walked off the court due to how out of shape he was. And was caught smoking a vape pen in the locker room after said workout.

Can't even think who this would be. GG comes to mind immediately because of the combine thing, but is he in everyone's first round?

Listened to it. He said he interviewed poorly too which makes me think it's GG Jackson. Dude really might just be a bonehead.

GG was my first thought as well. Just about every mock I've seen has him in the 1st round, Givony's one of the only ones I've heard that thinks he may slip to the 2nd round.

They were athletic in name alone. The twins have elite athleticism, cream of the crop

Damn why don’t you flirt harder.

Would also explain why DX hates him

Sensabaugh could be out of shape since he hasn't been playing. I can't imagine that someone is dumb enough to vape at his own NBA workout.

There were comments a while back about B Miller having bad workouts. I believe rumors said his bad conditioning was actually just sickness. Maybe not.

 

[jom2003]

what are your guys thoughts on bufkin

he's growing on me. especially after watching his games and realizing his finishing at the rim and defense are both way better that one would expect from a scoring combo guard.

i think the jordan poole comparison does him more harm than good

The rumor is that it was actually Brandon Miller. However, upon further investigation it was determined that he was just holding the pen "for a friend. . ."

I want Walker so, so bad. I'd do whatever I could to make that happen. I'll admit however, my information is limited compared to the NBA front offices. . .

Sell me on Walker vs other guys in his range. I don’t see it.

Defensive versatility
Toughness and physicality
Legit three-level scoring
Point-forward potential
He should be able to handle and bully his way into the lane, and make a play with a pass or his bankable floater.
