2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[seattlejazzfan]

I haven't dogged on Brandon Miller in a minute, but if you look at his late-season games against Tennessee and San Diego State, I think that's what he's going to look like going up against NBA-level wing defenders, unless someone else buys him some space and time to get his shots off.

sample size, my friend. guys have off nights. sometimes even a bad 3 or 4 game stretch. it's part of basketball. on the whole, he was SEC player of the year and the best frosh, by far, in the country.

Interesting arguments.

So we take into account Don wasn’t a great shooter coming in, but we don’t account that we was a great defender in college and isn’t now?

I thought I addressed that part here:

Mitchell's defense form college to NBA is also a perfect representation of how these strengths and weaknesses can be total ******** in the end. Mitchell basically became the exact opposite player that people would have pegged him for.

In short: It's a ****ing crap shoot. So I'll take the super talented, hyper competitive, freak athlete. And see what happens next.

I can't imagine Scoot is worse on defense than Don in the pros... but maybe.

This!!!

I’ve been anti-Rupert since last Dec

To clarify my joke: I am contextualizing your saying that he has a 50% of even surviving the NBA as being confident in his prospects.

I knew there was a joke I missed. I've been in like 4 hours straight of meetings and missed A LOT of jokes during this time.......
