2023 NBA Draft Megathread

I still think the Thompson twins should count as just one pick. Would we take the pair at 1 over Wemby?

I probably would. Like default, I think I am in the minority too.

**** no

**** no

But what if you are allowed to play both of them at the same time with 4 other players... so long as they are riding on one another's shoulders?

The full raincoat getup? Tempting...

Wemby still probably taller and better though.

Starting to feel like Hendricks is gonna go 8 :/

Right now Orlando is the 8th slot and I doubt they would draft Hendricks.

What makes you say that? Who is obviously preferable?

He is just starting to feel like his own tier after the first 7. In part because I don’t know who has enough athletic 6’ 10” forwards that can switch 1-5, are high-level shotblockers, and 3-point shooters.

Sarah Todd said Danny Ainge faked out the Sixers and made it seem like they wanted Thybulle which forced Philly to take him earlier than they wanted. Interesting insight.

For the Magic? Cason Wallace. I think they would take Hawkins before Hendricks tbh.

Taylor Hendricks shot 44% on layups this season FYI. He's not an infallible prospect.

If he was he would go top-5 easily.

Some brutal finishing against middle tier competition/size.
