2023 NBA Draft “Hot Takes” Thread

Portland takes Scoot and trades Dame this summer... to Miami in a deal around picks and Herro (who maybe goes to a third team for more picks)

That is a hot take and never gonna happen, If Jimmy has to hand over the keys to someone else, after getting them to the finals when noone expected it, Dame would ber on a gutted team with no Butler and a disgruntled BAM. He would be in SB though, down there lose or win noone really cares smh
 
This is very lukewarm, but I don't think this is an amazing draft class. It's fairly deep in the mid/late lotto and Wemby is obviously a generational talent, but I don't think it's going to be as amazing as it's being sold.

Maybe it's just because I haven't followed that draft as closely in recent years, but the amount of excuses for players this cycle (some are valid) seems extremely high.

I think this draft ends up way worse than people are hoping as far as top level/all star talent, but much better than average at rotation players/high level starters.
 
Ok. I’m starting to think the jazz should go all in on trading for the second or third pick to draft Scoot. And I’m starting to think they just might. We need a pg we have draft picks galore this year and in the future. This is a crazy move but one that is very doable and realistic. I guess it all boils down to how confident the jazz are Scoot will be an absolute star in the league. It’s a hot take but at the same time it’s not something that would leave our cupboards empty while still offering a deal the hornets can’t refuse.

Dang, I was coming on here to say that the Jazz end up with Scoot Henderson.

Also, people are going to be denying that they ever loved the Thompson Twins by year 4.

What does Portland want that we have to offer. They want win now in the twilight years of Dame from what I understand. Only guy we have to fit that bill is Lauri
