2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

Idk how they view Ivey, but that would be a killer deal for them IMO. Ivey is trash.
I didn't love it. Not a huge fan of Ivey. Maybe they move Ivey for something else and trade #5 for Collin straight up? Sexton for Beef Stew and #5?

Ivey is a second draft guy I would be interested in taking a look at but kinda hard to commit to developing him and George (and others). IDK... I'm in the spitballing phase here.
 
IF DL went to Detroit a JC and 10 for 5 would be on the table for sure.

Shame on you for even bringing up trading Sexton.

I think media is overexaggerating when they say, "#1 can be traded for a 4th or 5th starter".....but I think Sexton for #5 is somewhat in the realm of possibility. Maybe instead of #10 we do #29 + #32? Those late picks are really good as trade items for more vets. They can get you a really solid vet....like Simone.

Speaking of second draft guys, I would be somewhat interested in Jalen Green if/when he gets dealt. Maybe the we jump in as a third party like we thought we were with Herro. I know it doesn't exactly work this way, and rookie contract is valuable, but Jalen Green or Dalton Knecht?? Knecht is older than him.
 
That's the trade up fake trade I'm going to pitch Jordan Clarkson and #10 for #5 and Beef Stew. They loved AB so take JC now to fill that role. Go get Knecht and let us sneak up in Castle range.
 
Man a redshirt year as a rookie likely dings his draft stock quite a bit. Sucks for him.

Wonder if he's projected to slide if it would make it easier for us to trade up with a team that doesn't want to win next year (Wizards?). Maybe SA takes him at #8 as they would be able to take the year developing their other guys and #4.
He might slide to 15 with that kind of injury. Hurts us at ten.

That supposedly was relayed to Russillo by 8 or so nba teams... take it for what its worth and I believe it is exaggeration.
 
If Castle can be an average shooter, he's a near all-star. Get him then? Wait...work him out again and look closely...then get him.
 
Is Beef Stew a player nickname, or like saying "and a bag of chips" in trade talks?

Because I'll be honest, a hearty beef stew seems like the best piece in that trade.
Isiah Stewart is Beef Stew.
 
I highly doubt that lol
Detroit's owner wants progress... if other teams see this draft as really bad I could see it happening. They also have a lot of space and likely not a ton of real interest. If Knecht is the guy they like and is still there at 10?
