2023 NBA Draft Megathread

UConn had the easiest tourney run in recent memory

Really don't get why you sit Hawkins with two fouls. You have a chance to win the game in the first half, just play him.

 

[Coach Ellis]

I honestly don't know who they should draft, at least after the obvious Wemby/Scoot/Miller tier. Like the potential of the Thompson twins is intriguing, but who knows how that'll translate. Still, I think I can talk myself into being psyched for any of the 8 or so talked about targets after them.

Wemby, Scoot, Miller
Walker, Whitmore, Hendricks, Dick
Black, Amen, Ausur, Wallace

I’d be happy with any of those guys for the first pick, and hopefully they get one plus another that falls to the Timberwolves pick. If those 11 are all gone, I’d probably just take GG and hope that Will Hardy is the coach to unlock the potential.

If they keep the last pick, I’m looking hard at my fallback list of Leonard Miller, Sidy Cissoko, Jaime Juaquez, Dariq Whitehead, Bilal Coulibaly, Julian Strawther or Brandon Podziemski.

I have a hard time deciding how high to rank Hawkins. Will probably end up lottery for me

I'm fluent in Troll and I can't even understand you

Bahahaha!

See, it isn’t just me @Eddie Zero. Perhaps some introspection is in order?

the block function is your friend when it comes to this prick

Yes. And maybe you should use it so the rest of us don’t have to hear you bitch about my posting?

Your own name is Douchebag for crying out loud and you’re calling others “pricks?” Um. Okay.

He has such a Bane like stroke coming off those screens but none of the physicality or intensity that makes Bane such a damn good player. I’d feel better taking Hawkins with perhaps the last pick we have but I gotta think that with our first two, there will be better prospects available. Prospects that are taller, more athletic, and can do more.

Decent mock, imo.

Watch few games of Victor recently. Jesus Christ this kids is so skinny. He is so talented probably never have a kid like this since Lebron but he need at least 10kg of muscles or he will get destroy after 10 games...

Doing more isn't all that important tho if you are elite enough at your skillset.

And you are wrong about intensity. Hawkins plays hard and is tough.

Just don't play him at center and you're probably fine
