2023 NBA Draft Megathread

I might ha

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.

The guy said he will drop out the first round. Brandon Miller isn't dropping out of the first round.

I might have to drop GG off my board tbh.

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

He's got an incredible body with athleticism and a lot of people said Houston didn't show his full talents.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

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

Jordan Poole is a great player. Idk how that would harm him. He might not be worth his contract, but he's still damn good

I'm officially out on GG. Getting too many confirmations that it was GG.

Out of shape and Vaping...clear signs of self sabotage. Maturity or passive aggressive tendency. Yike this seems it was intentionally done by the player.

I don't care about vaping. I'm sure a lot of NBA players smoke weed. But to do it after walking out in the middle of a workout in a teams locker room shows a level of stupidity that is impressive.

If true would anyone take GG with the #28 pick?

Yeah they do but don’t think he will be available.

GG needed to do well in workouts and especially in interviews. Are you sure he's the one who is screwing the pooch like this? This is starting to sound like a Hassan Whiteside situation.

I've been active on draft Twitter since it's inception. I have sources

Yeah, I'm sure. He's a second contract guy right now.

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Another guy who killed himself in draft workouts and interviews was Louis King from Oregon.

I'm pretty sure its him. His draft stock has been tanking for weeks now.

He's now at 31 on Bleacher (the lowest I've seen).

EDIT: he's also 31 on SI too. He's falling fast

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.

For me, KO has been a complete revelation as far as what is possible with elite level passing from the front court. We see it again in Denver. My idea of what I want to see on offense is to have 3 playmakers on the floor and not give ANYTHING away defensively. Having two of the three bigs with legit three point ability is icing on the cake. I just want to have a team that can laugh at teams that want to go small ball.

We would still have to do something about the guard line, but I feel like those guys are more obtainable than someone like Walker, maybe even with our second pick. Those guys pop up in free agency and trades more often too, simply because the physical profile is more common. It might even be that we have one of those guys on the roster already.

Also, if we get Walker, I'm having him live with KO at his hippie commune to learn every dirty trick KO knows.
