2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Alright, so after a few minutes of research, here’s what The Internet says about Scoot’s size:
-either 6’ 2” or 6’ 4” (this sounds like the shoes/without shoes discrepancy). Also bear in mind rounding
-190 to 200 pounds
-6’ 9” wingspan

Westbrook’s official measurements:
-6’ 2.25” without shoes, 6’ 3.5” with shoes (the same as 6’ 2” without and 6’ 4” with shoes when rounding)
-6’ 7.75” wingspan
-195 pounds

Sooo… sounds like they’re the same size if not an edge to Scoot.

Gleague has Scoot's measurements and lists him as 6'2" and 195 lbs.

And measurements are supposed to be without shoes. Russ is 6’ 2” in that regard also.

Better passing reel than Black’s college passing reel.

Jarace or Black just imagine their elite court vision passing to Lauri and Walker!!!

Wow

I think Cam Whitmore is the guy that the Jazz should want to target the most. Hopefully, there’s a reasonable trade that can allow them to move up to get him. Think he’d be amazing to team up with Lauri & Kessler.

Ya the fit and the need is perfect

Not sure that applies to G-League. We had a couple of short-time players a couple years ago who were 6-8 in the G-League, but 6-5 when they played with us.

Guys we shouldn’t upset @Saint Cy of JFC too much, there’s still a ways to go before the draft and he has connections and sources,,…

Cy, keep them coming bro, ..

A draft I would like that nearly everyone would hate: JHS, Klintman, Sheppard

I fully believe the jazz have intent on trading up for one of Walker or Whitmore. I think the jazz main needs are those two. We acquired all these assets, their thinking might be let’s use them.

Seems the most likely course. Thinking they'll make a play for 5 or 6. If we can w/o giving up Kessler, Lauri, or 9 (fat chance, but one can hope), I'm liking how we're looking going forward.

I doubt it.. if we had wanted to move up we could have tanked ala Portland.

Also DA is very stingy with his draft picks I think we’ll stand pat.

Anyone here knows what DA’s history for trading up as a GM?

I know he traded down to grab Tatum, but what about trading up?

I don't think there's much of one in that regard. That said, I wouldn't put it past Ainge to pull the trigger on one to get someone he likes. Ainge is ruthless when he gets a bug up his arse.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Good for them. We won’t have them.

Portland will list them on the Craigslist ad for the #3 pick though.

Do you actually think the jazz actions at the trade deadline were those of a team trying to make the playoffs, then when we weren’t losing enough games with a month to go the jazz completely mailed it in when they were still in the running for the play-in. Don’t be an idiot.

He traded up from 16 to 13 to get KO back in 2013.
