2023 NBA Draft Megathread

Last guy Chris Paul advocated for was Donovan.

Not sure if that is actually true, but he did advocate for Don. So GG is the next Don

Makes sense.

More tape on Bufkin. I think he could be a significant offensive guard at 6'5". He measured at the same height as JHS.

I hope someone in the 10-15 range believes that...

I think in 10-15 the following guys are taken:

Wallace or Black - One will go top 9.
Dick

If GG goes in that range it means two of these guys are available:

George
Bufkin
Miller
Bilal
Hawkins

If someone takes Lively then we really in business.

Guys like George, Bufkin, Lively and Bilal seem to be moving up during the pre-draft process. GG has question marks, and I'm expecting them to push GG down a few spots at this point.

But not everyone can move up. I just mostly hope that CP's endorsement has OKC or another team eyeballing him (it likely has zero effect).

Best case scenario is one of Hendricks, Ausar, Walker fall to us and we can take Bufkin, George at 16. I would also be quite happy going with Wallace and then getting Miller at 16. If we can get Lively and GG in that 10-15 range then we are in business.

Of the guys with a realistic chance to go 10-15 I would love it if Lively, GG, and NSJ went there. Man if 2 of those three go in that range you'll have some amazing options at 16.

Watching the Thompson's athleticism is like watching an NBA 2K video game. Amazing!

What I wouldn't give to add that type of athleticism to our roster.

JHS shoit 38% on 3s out of PNR

Still love the kid

If you have that kind of size and athleticism advantage at the point of attack, it does stack the deck in your favor.

I’m not a big fan… I think it most likely means he can’t get the better shots and is a good “bad shot” maker… but unless you are a star you don’t get to shoot those. I won’t be disgusted if we take him 16 but I’d likely have 5 or so guys I’d prefer.

Or he plays in college spacing and gets the shots the offense gives him
