Fun college town! Actually a pretty quick growing city these days. Poor Missouri bball. The optimism the program had followed by his college career ending injury before he even got going was devastating. That’s the kind of luck NBA teams need to be great. Nuggets get MVP IN 2nd round...

I did, born in COMO, but you do you. Regardless, I like your focus in on sallis. He could be a sleeper

I’m not a JC fan at all though so maybe my dislike is blinding me. I’m down with your devin carter optimism.

Sallis is a very good defender. They do have a similar offensive approach however JC more polished with shooting mechanics midrange. Sallis is a better athlete than JC and arguably better from distance. He also is a year behind from where JC was entering the draft. They are the same height...

I wouldn’t hate it at 29/31. Hrs still very raw but the progress he made in just one season from zags year to wake forest is super intriguing. If he could bulk up he could have some promise, super athlete. Curious what his numbers would be. Maybe see a little jaylon brown there. He is...

Me too, would be absolutely stoked to land

With filipowski still middraft projection, similar to last season, curious if this suggests maybe the ‘24 draft is being undervalued. Or is it just the ceiling of filipowski is known and this draft will just be about drafting youth with potential? Curious what thoughts are on this from people...

Just to jump back in on filipowski. Was a fan of his game in ‘23 and was hoping we would call his name last year with our 2nd pick until he re-declared to duke. On a lot of the early 23 mock drafts he was largely sitting in the 12-20 range. If indeed the 24 draft is weaker than last year…I’d...

I think the kings need another season to run it back when they have 2 key role pieces back next year. I feel Murray got exposed though. Their defense looks a lot like the Jazz did of years past but without Gobert in the middle to dissuade

It was surprising to me how rough they looked against the Pels. Sometimes in sports there is just that one team you just can’t beat, but they’re issues appear deeper than just that. They need a rim protector or a more athletic PF to play with DS sorely I think…. and a better bench. Just not...

Wait, TH might actually be awesome??? . Hope the positive trends continue! Solid numbers

Tank next year hard and not hope but if fate allows…. a key injury or 2 for a couple other teams in the league….wouldn’t be so terrible for us

I wouldn’t be surprised if next season is a full year long tank. Lot of long leashes right now for young players. Interested to see what Kessler looks like next year with another offseason. Hopefully strength training. What I can’t say though is if Klingan from UConn is there at pick 8…not...

Vroom vroom

JC x 2 could be cut tonight and if replaced by 2 dudes that just have effort and play hard on D and not sure we’d miss a beat. The rebounding effort is so bad, not even mentioning just staying on your man. Losing fontechhio and keeping clarkson about killed my internal jazz interest for this...
