2023 NBA Draft Megathread

[NUMBERICA]

I’m not sure you can glean too much from the workout videos available online.

I agree, they show only the best stuff, and if the best stuff is shooting at a standstill then maybe it’s not great.

The biggest knock on Cam is he doesn't pass the ball. I think that's funny that he was working out with Melo because that was always my problem with Melos game.

I would definitely trade up for Whitmore because I think he will be an alpha on a team and we want one.

So working out with Melo is mainly you stand there observing while he jacks up shots. When he misses, he nods at you to go get the rebound.

The week of the draft is definitely the most fun. Starting tomorrow there should be a lot of rumors pouring out. Workouts should pretty much be over with by now.

i saw the workout video. he was shooting set shots. if anything this has me more worried. you dont get set shots in the nba.

He will end up being adequate as a catch and shoot guy… off the dribble I doubt he is any good with his mechanics. He may need a ton of room to shoot it even off the catch. I think it will limit him but won’t kill him… if you close hard to him he will burn you… so I think he may end up around 35ish percent on 4 attempts per game… something like that.

I also think we have at least one trade early in the week… with Beal… there might be a couple others.

I dunno I feel like if say he comes to us and had a fantastic day shooting, then you’re not gonna wanna show that cos then other teams would be in the know too.

Then who’s leaking that he’s having great workouts and why are they leaking it?

Well as with all best intentions, they don’t always work out the way you wanted it to sometimes.

 

[Coach Ellis]

I don't think there's anyone Dallas can trade #10 for that will keep Luka in Dallas. Guys like John Collins and Lu Dort aren't going to change that franchise.

In all honesty, if they’re going to open up the bank for Kyrie, they should call Toronto about OG or Siakam and just screw up their cap for the next several years. Go get a big 3 when everyone else is trying to shed contracts. Pay the tax and hope that’s enough to keep Luka happy.

Jazz were really quiet leading up to this point. I know DA keeps things close to the vest, but I truly have no idea who the Jazz are going to take. Just hope I like them. . .

So when Indiana and Michigan played, how did each guard perform? Buftkin vs JHS?

If you mentally prepare yourself for NSJ or Bilal at 9 everything else seems like a huge win.
