2023 NBA Draft Megathread




Wait. Hardens game with Maggette body? Should probably be the number 1 pick tbh

I don't understand where the Maggette and Harden talk is coming from. He doesn't have anything close to Hardens dribble game which is what makes Harden so special and not even remotely close to Maggettes body or athleticism.

I retract all those, officially.


He’s way more like Kareem and Spud Webb anyway…..
 
when you watch cam whitmore, you don't have to look hard to see the warts, but man, he is such a physical specimen and explosive athlete with a functional long range shot, that's a guy i think you have to take a change on at least top 7 and if he busts, you feel okay about it because you just can't pass on a guy with a near non-existent ceiling.

He’s a hard one for me.

Will have to reserve thoughts until later in the season I think.
 
he is definitely a tough one. i guess i've decided after a couple months now, his potential is worth the risk.
The tough part about this draft is you can see the upside in almost everyone but you also see some pretty big flaws. The Thompson brothers are probably right at the top of the list. They are freak athletes with nice handles and vision but they are really bad outside shooters.

There are a lot of dudes that fit that description that are mocked super high. Scoot being one of them.

Scoot is actually hitting 47% from three this year. but it is on pretty low volume - only 3 attempts per game - so i think the concern may still be warranted.
