2023 NBA Draft Megathread

Black de-commited from the zags to go to Arky. I like his potential but i would rather have JHS. Id take bilal at 9 and see what guard is left at 16 personally. Given zags player development history, Black chased money overall in college. Don’t get that choice still. Poor decision? Just my opinion. Clearly not a musselman fan
 
Lol at some of this… if you are drafting Black to throw him in the corner like Josh Green then you probably should go a different direction. No reason not to get the kid reps as a pg when we have no established pgs on the roster really. If that’s the plan pick a different prospect full stop.
sure someone will probably draft him thinking they can live with and or need a tank commando, and use AB in that way . But in the end it will likely prove he was overpicked by the time it comes around to sign an extension, and he will get less than Sexton did
I don't understand why people are struggling with that concept. He can already guard multiple positions and he's 19 his shot will begin to develop.
I corrected it for you smh
He sucks bad as a shot taker and maker. He has no pull up game and is not going to be given on ball usage, his first couple seasons,not on any decent team anyway. He can be plugged in as a pg on a tanker, or as a secondary on a play in hopeful team, lacking back court defense, but has to have multiple floor spacers every time he is out there. I just cannot see him having any success as a floor general and is more likely a undersized garbage man
 
There are a few players in this draft I would give up the Lakers pick to acquire. I am hoping Justin and Danny feel the same.

For instance this year's 10th is worth the estimated value of the 2027 7th/8th pick which by probability is the likely spot for the Lakers pick .
 
I am sorry but Black is NOT a better defensive player than Wallace, and frankly I don’t think it is close. Black is 5th on that list. What a crazy post. Box and one just lost a lot a of credibility. This is like a Reddit fan ranking.

I don’t think you have watched much Black film based off of your comments. Should probably do that and get back to me.
 
Stocks per/40:

Black - 3.1
Wallace - 3

Black:

3.4 STL%
1.8 BLK%
DWS - 2.4
DBPM - 3.9

Wallace:

3.7 STL%
1.6 BLK%
DWS - 1.6
DBPM - 4.2

To say it’s not even close is such a bad take it’s not even funny. Be better @kcgar.
 
Even if it is close I’ll take the 6’6 (w/o shoes) player with a 6’7.5 wingspan over a 6’2.5 (w/o shoes) player with a 6’8.5 wingspan all day.
