2023 NBA Draft Megathread

Houston has some dumb ****ing potential on their team. Absolutely nutty. If Ime Udoka is HIM as a coach he should have these dudes competing for rings in 3-4 years.

Wild roster but they all can’t be that dude. 2-3 are going to have to concede to paying a role for them to be a great team.

I would bet they have to move some of those dudes in the next 2-3 years for “role” players though that work better with their main 2-3 dudes.
 
F'ing Whitmore man. Couldn't present a little bit better and not completely tank your stock? I want to live in the alternate universe where Orlando takes him at #6.

I dont think he was ever going to Orlando. The alternate universe where he workouts well and has no medical issues he probably goes 5 to Detroit which pushes Ausar to Orlando. Then Indy still probably takes Walker, but Washington has to choose between Black and Bilal and Utah gets whose left.

So that's probably a positive for some people here, but we might look back on this when Bilal is really coming into his own and be depressed.
 
I had Tay Henny #5 on my board. Thats with Cam at #4. So throw Cam out and I had Hendricks at #4. Im stoked. I feel good in saying he will be better than everyone taken at 4-8 in the draft. The only one I think might surpass him is Walker.

If any of the teams who drafted 4-8 called me and said they would trade the guy they picked for Hendricks straight up I would say no.
 
Did we ever get any solid info on why Cam Whitmore fell so far? Seems like one of the biggest stories of the draft and I'm surprised there's not more clear commentary about it.

Probably a combination of medical concerns, bad workouts, and horrible interviews. I can't find anything to backup the vaping thing.

Of it was the character then it’s possible teams have been told to keep it quiet as to not taint the NBA.
