2023 NBA Draft Megathread

Should we do one more mock draft before the actual draft?

My recommendation would be to have posters sign up for teams, so that trades make sense, but I would participate even if we just did it the way we have been.

I'm game.
 
The Jazz's draft slot at #9 is appealing as a trade-back scenario for teams who don't believe in the Thompsons and have Hendricks and Dick as comparable prospects. At #9, Dick plus either a Thompson or Hendricks will be there.

Rumor has it that the shooting in the workouts hasn't been great for both the twins. They're going to drop, a little or a lot who knows.

However, sometimes you make a bad pick if you believe that they would retain their market value for a couple of years and you can flip them later. Take Amen if he slips and flip him after a year if you feel he is not a long-term fit. Some teams would be still infatuated with his potential.

Here we go… combining mine and HH’s ideas into one:

UTA out: 9/16/28, Kelly Olynyk
UTA in: 7/15, John Collins

IND out: 7/26
IND in: 9/16

ATL out: 15, John Collins
ATL in: 28, Kelly Olynyk

Wait.. where did 26 go? I approve btw. If you got Collins you aren't looking at Hendricks too hard anymore... so go get Black or Ausar or Cam or whatever. Now you got 15 for Miller/Bilal... if we got 26 then its Whitehead for me.

Just watched Leif on Locked on Jazz.. he did mention the twins shooting in workouts were so bad they stopped and moved onto other drills..

Wasn’t sure I heard it right,, but man that sounded ugly.
