2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[Elizah Huge]

An absolute dream is WAS taking Wallace or Bufkin at 8 then we trade up to 10 to end up with one of Jarace/Hendricks and Black.

Draft Walker, and then one of JHS, George, Bufkin, Walker. That would be fantastic.

Sounds like Ausar likely doesn’t fall past 7. It also sounds like we could trade up for Bilal if Black falls to us at 9.

I think DAL is the the team to watch trade wise. I think Cuban is a fan of trading back in general (buying time), and we could both take back salary and provide them with more future trade chips. Similar to the Duren deal.

The Jazz could be interested in pairing Hendricks alongside Markkanen in the front court if the versatile forward is available when Utah picks 9th overall

Doesn’t sound like that’s in the cards but it could just be a smokescreen.

Sam Vecenie's final big board has Keyonte George at 26 and Kris Murray at 17.

light in the ***

 

[Eddie Zero]

Missing from the Green Room list so far: Leonard Miller, Brice Sensabaugh, Kris Murray, Dariq Whitehead

I don't think any of those outside MIller deserves the invite really. all including Miller are lottery level prospects but nobody is showing their hand because none of them have been ranked in the lottery all season for different reasons.
My favorite outcome at this point would be pf at 9 and trade 16 and a Cavs pick swap in 4 years for a guard at 10-13

Good stuff. No Midricks = Win

 

[Elizah Huge]

I would be very interested on how Jarace/Hendricks/Black fall in order on our big board.

 

[Bodhi]

I know Cy is occasionally petulant, aggressive, and often wrong…but if we’re being completely honest, hardly anybody here has a better track record here on prospects than him. Some of you make it too personal with him. Get out of your feelers and just keep it to ball.

This keeps being said but tell me specifics of this track record. Outside of Kuzma I genuinely can’t recall him being above and beyond other real good draft related posters.

Help refresh me.

I outlined a few ways we could get a deal done yesterday. it makes all the sense in the world imo.
