2024 NBA Draft Reaction Thread

Those stats arent real lmao. He's also not uber athletic. He's a worse athlete than Bona. He's worse at everything than Bona.

I liked the idea of him... until I saw him move in a workout and it look like old Favors moving around. He ain't it.

Sounds a bit like why we didn’t pick Giannis..

This!!

 

[whatthe]

Except shooting but yeah.

18 years old, uber athletic big man, who blocks shots can switch and defend in space and shoots almost 40% from 3? like... wtf

He's interesting. Good measurables. Plays hard. Contests. Can hedge and generally recover. Sets real screens. He's just raw. Shows flashes passing and shooting the ball.

Looks like Devin Carter is replacing Davion Mitchell outright.

Bona a better FT shooter. I dont care that Ulrich shot 40% on some ridiculously small sample size.

Great trade for both sides.

They are probably the same. Ulrich isnt shooting 3's in the NBA and he's probably never playing in the NBA.

 

[Shad]

Flips going to go 31, isn't he?

Ancient players usually beat younger ones.

I remember that workout. He was clearly just coasting and moving at half speed. He tested out well at the combine and we were able to see him in actual game play at the combine and he moved well during those games.

It feels like if were able to move Clarkson for any type of value, this would be the time.

 

[Ensign Nate]

So, what's preventing Utah or any other team from drafting Bronny and then holding the Lakers hostage for his draft rights?

It feels like if were able to move Clarkson for any type of value, this would be the time.

At this point I don't think he is moved without taking back a similar questionable contract unless we attach an asset which we shouldn't do.

 

[infection]

So the second round starts in 5 minutes? Or do we get some buffer time before?

 

[KqWIN]

I doubt we trade him for value, but look out for JC/Shamet trade. We will be paying to make it happen.

 

[hgb]

Is there a useful place to follow the 2nd round? Or is it just uninteresting? Seeing as it's happening relatively early, it matches up well with watching a combined sunset and lightning show here in the south of Norway.
