2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Dillingham sounds exciting but Jazz need to get bigger and more versatile at every position

The thing I hate about drafting Dillingham is what if you draft next year and you get the 5th pick and the last elite prospect left is a guard on the smaller side? It's not about the fit currently, or what the Jazz need, but it just makes drafting harder in 2025.

I've probably asked, but not for months.

Where would you draft Hendricks this year based on pre-draft. Kind of hard to find a guy I'd trade Hendricks straight up for this year tbh. Not sure that says more about Hendricks or this draft.

IMO right around where he got drafted in the 7-9 range

OG will re-up with the Bricks. 5 yrs/212m. Hardcapped to hell.

Guess you have to go all in at some point. After the Knicks endured decades of pain, they are ready.

Sounds like a good problem to have.

I want wings. Give me athletic wings. At least two if you can.

What if Holland Carter and Salaun, are best available at our pick, who do you want?

I’m not the biggest fan of Carter

Lol. He views Carter as a sexton/Key clone. I’ve tried to tell him he plays nothing like them. First he’s not small and plays bigger. He will be able to guard most wings.

His other argument is playmaking. He’s not a great playmaker but most college players come into the league that way and grow into it. I’m not worried about that in the least. Also there were only 4 pg’s that averaged 7 or more ast a game so that alone makes it a none issue.

Buzelis has one move in his entire bag and he turns it over half the time if he gets breathed on in the middle of his move

I don’t get why he’s expected to go as high as #5. I just don’t see it.

I don’t see Carter as anything like sexton or Key he is definitely an undersized guard with questionable playmaking and can’t handle lead guard duties he’s like Walmart Marcus smart and that’s not someone I’d use the 10th pick on

Got any rumor for us? I don’t care if you just make it up I’m horny for one.

I wish.

I know you guys all think I'm full of ****. But there was once a legitimate connection we were close family friends with (high-ranking NBA executive for an Eastern Conference team; a name you would all know). TL;DR, there was a divorce that led to a big, nasty spat between the women involved. So we don't talk much anymore.

I wasn’t saying you were comparing games just the affect of being a small guard. He isn’t small. And I think he will develop some playmaking. He isn’t going to be one of those tunnel vision guards that go one on one like a CJ or Key at the end of the year. Plus I pointed out the fact that there are a ton of starting pg’s with questionable playmaking. That just isn’t the pg position anymore.
