2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

What is the point you are making? That when a player plays well his stock is up and when he doesn't it goes down? I'm seriously struggling to understand. I feel like that could not be more obvious.

The same thing you’re hyping Risacher up for is the same thing you’re dinging Pate for.

He looks good to me. Really long and a smooth athlete. Plays both sides of the floor. Does the little things. Plays with passion.

To some degree I have to rely on scouts who actually watch Euroleague, but his highlights are impressive to me.

I would take him at 8 for sure. I was just using guys own reasoning against them and it worked to perfection.

Uh....yeah you're completely wrong about that. As Risacher's production has gone down, my opinion of him has gone down. Like I said, play good = stock go up. Play bad = stock go down. You really got me there.

I'm seeing it more with Sarr. I do think the shooting is BS....well, not BS but I expect him to shoot as well as any prospect with those percentages. He definitely is more like Bam on offense as others have suggested. Still need to form a stronger opinion on his defense. He is moving up for me, Risacher down.

I love Topic and Sarr though

You probably would have completely changed your tune on Topic once you saw him put up 5 PPG on an actual team/league instead of Mega Max which is kind of the Ignite of Europe.

Some of Pate’s recent games since end of February:

23 points (5/12 from 3), 7 rebounds, 4 assists

23 points (3/6 from 3), 11 assists, 6 rebounds

12 points (5/11 from field), 11 assists, 5 rebounds

16 points (4/11 from field), 9 assists, 4 rebounds

This is a guy who barely turned 18 mid-March against pros.

Negative, because that league is insane and young guys who are able to play at the level usually turn out pretty good.

Where is Risacher at on your big board?

Idk, I'd have to re-evaluate my board. Probably in have him between 6-14.

He has a nice shiftiness to his game.

I think our boards are similar this year.

Has some nice passing chops as well.
