2023 NBA Draft Megathread

Monaco is considered the 4th best team in Europe because they are the 4th best team in the Euroleague (per standings).

Bilal was holding his own throughout the 3 games vs Monaco in a way very few draft prospects could.

It's time to swallow the xenophobia and recognize this young dude was balling against the most legit of legit non-NBA competition.

I’m ****ing dead. I was thinking the other day that I was surprised I wasn’t accused of not liking French players because they’re French and voila here we are. Lmao typical Cy.
 
This...

I have heard how many people don't love Ausar and Amen on this board. I have also heard plenty of hate for Bilal.

So, how about a scenario where those two are left at 9 but all the other top 8 are gone. I think that's not just possible but probable.

Do you take Ausar? Bilal? Or neither?

Ausar is considered by most to be a top 9 prospect. But I am not sold on him. I probably still take Ausar but I would listen closely to trade options for teams trying to trade up and settle with Bilal and an alternative. PS. I am not sold on Bufkin.
Listen to this...if it is between Ausur and Bilal, you take Bilal. Then Dallas takes Lively. The Magic then take Ausur at 11. And then the Jazz trade from 16 to 12 and get another quality player.
 
Bilal had more fouls than shots made last game. There was no balling happening. Just a lot of dumb fouling.

Its not a draft thread unless Cy throws something like that out.
 
IF the Jazz do go Bilal I am confident they have seen stuff behind the scenes and done so much homework that I will be fine with it. I'm not going to root against a kid on our team. I will look around longingly at the other guys we could have had if he struggles.

They said they want to maximize 2 to 3 years from now. That's projects galore this draft.
