2024 NBA Draft Mega Thread

He said it, but the general thought is that he was just saying random ****.
People took it as gospel… some of the beat writers have mentioned that the tone on the 2024 draft from the front office is that is no bueno. It looks like it will likely be the worst draft in like a 7 year window unless some dudes emerge.

I really hate the idea of judging drafts early, but typically a lack of clear top guy means there probably isnt a top 10 potential player in the draft (these guys usually dont materialize out of nowhere w/ rare exceptions), but there is a lot more to drafts than that and i think it's impossible to know the actual overall quality of any draft this far out in regards to the non-top players.
 
Givony/Woo posted an early 2024 mock draft. They have Flip and Clingan both in the top-10. Both guys Cy and myself were higher on that consensus in this years draft.
 
BTW thats some fugly basketball France vs Serbia...
I can't believe Risacher is considered a top 5 pick. He's so underwhelming. Did literally nothing in the first 2 minutes but commit 2 stupid fouls and has now been sitting for the rest of the 1st quarter.

Melvin Ajinca looks interesting.... big long wing, active on D... has some ball skills and a smooth lefty shot from 3(high 3p%, high FT%)... doesn't seem like he's the most bouncy player, though... would love to see how he develops this year... seems like he's cousin of Alexis Ajinca

Risacher in play again.... he is doing NOTHING.... and his coach took him out again... so weird. They are leading by 30 so... might be keeping him for the semis...
