2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[Eddie Zero]

lol. dropped 23 on 20 shots (not great, but not bad efficiency) and had 12 rebs and 4 assists and played very good defense. great players even when the shot isn't falling, they get to the line (and make their FTs), they rebound, defend and they make plays.

lol he was a chucker clown yesterday and any lesser player would have been benched before they had that usage again. He is a top 5 prospect in the draft, but lets not pretend he did anything well enough yesterday in his conference championship game, to say he made a statement that he was a better prospect than Amen or Jarace or Whitmore. Definitely going 3 or 4 to most teams, but these types of innefficient shooting games kill his odds of going #2 overall imo. That is the reason he is ranked that high btw- the shooting- not all his other traits.
You can spin it up if you want to your own narrative, but the way you describe his stat line is not how it went. he choked and his team especially Quinerly carried them -not him.

I wrote him off when Elizah Huge started bringing him up, but when I have watched he has been very good. He's probably just at 6'3 in shoes with a 6'6ish wingspan and he's quicker than you'd think.

Just hard for me to buy it when the dude was super *** last season and pretty mediocre at a mid major his Freshman year. He's had a huge glow up this year. If he can have a nice tourney I could see him declaring if he wants to get drafted in the 2nd round. Or he could just return to school, continue to boost his stock/become NBA ready and enter the NBA more mature. I can definitely see him as a decent backup PG tho, but I wouldn't take him ahead of a Marcus Sasser.

i actually had the same concern regarding the previous season - beware of guys who were crap and then had a huge jump. if he could come back and show he can do it again - that this season isn't an anomaly, i'd feel a lot more confident.

That's Toby's kid right? He's probably not strapped for cash and can wait. I'd be cool with waiting if I was him. Next year's draft seems fairly weak based on what people are saying... UCLA probably not a bad place to be.

no, not Toby's kid, but his dad did play in the nfl so your point stands. Aaron Bailey.

The only interest I have in Miller is the attention I give his game as a potential Jazz player. Those odds are almost gone now thats why it is relevant.
How would you like to be the org that drafted him at 3 only to watch him become Henry Ruggs and out of the league before he even got started. When they could have taken someone similar.
Miller homers keep ignoring facts surrounding that Capital crime case that will absolutley impact him in civil court for being there. Even if he continues to pretend he wasn not aware the gun he brought to the scene was soon to be a murder weapon. It matters. But keep thinking it doesn't.

Yup, and Marquette should be incredible next season if he returns. They are all underclassmen and they don't have anyone who should be declaring for the draft.
