Following Potential 2026 Draftees

It’s the notion that he’s lucky. Not really. He had a cap change that allowed the fuggin mvp to leave for nothing. He’s had less luck than like 90% of the GMs that have put together title teams. The Westbrook “credit” is hilarious. Russ is part of the reason KD wanted to bounce. Presti clearly got PG to re-sign with the understanding that he’d move him if he wanted later and it was the way for PG to get the most money anyway.

The dude absolutely just dominated the other GMs in the league. Everyone has a few things break their way. He took full advantage of every break.

Look, being good creates more opportunities for luck, but he was gifted a very lucky series of jackpots centered around Westbrook.
 
Is this board really having a conversation about Presti being lucky? The dude is on his way to being the best gm in history. He is also on a crazy role right now snagging secondary pieces in the 2nd half of the draft and free agency.

Dort
Wiggins
Jaylin Williams
Isiah Joe
Ajay Mitchell
Kenrich Williams

I think we can probably add Brandon Carlson to that group in the future. He has also missed on a ton of 1sts but he is always swinging for high upside guys and has constantly replenished his future draft capital to continue taking risks without being a detriment to the teams future.

I think he’s had less luck than most average GMs. Wild to think that Russ is the reason Presti is goated.
 
Sucks to open this thread and rather than find discussion about prospects- which, ftr, JF does better than any board I’ve found- it’s two straight pages talking Sam effing Presti.

I get it, it’s a message board - tangents happen. Just hope it ends soon.

Cameron Carr/Baylor have had about a week off from games so not much to talk about.

Just not much happened yesterday specifically. Illinois played I guess. Stojakavic had a good game. I'm not sure what to think of Keaton Wagler yet.

Wagler didn’t look like a 1st rd prospect to me when I watched him against Bama. Looks like a dude who will be a very good 4 year player at the highest level of cbb. But that’s one game - the 5th of his career, so probably pretty dumb of me to even go there.
 
Cayden Boozer is someone I'll probably end up having relatively high on my board. He's got OKC guard written all over him.
